Uncrating the System

The Uni-Drum Supply System was carefully packaged
for shipment by Graco. When the system arrives,
perform the following procedure to uncrate the system.
Moving the unit off of the pallet without following the
uncrating procedure can damage the equipment.
To uncrate the system, perform the following steps:
1. Inspect the crate carefully for shipping damage.
Contact the carrier promptly if damage is
discovered.
2. Remove the plywood sides and top of the crate.
3. Inspect the contents carefully. There should not be
any loose or damaged parts.
4. Compare the packing slip against all items included
in the crate. Report any shortages or other
inspection problems immediately.
5. Remove the band straps that hold the Uni-Drum to
the pallet.
6. The Uni-Drum is ready for installation. Before
installing the system, read the General Description
section on page 18 to become familiar with the
system components.

Overview

Installation Overview

The location of the Uni-Drum should allow for easy
loading and unloading of the 300 gallon (1200 liter)
magnadrum or other tote drums with either a forklift
truck or pallet-jack hand truck.
The Uni-Drum Supply System must be leveled and
mounted on a horizontal floor. An unleveled condition
can keep the Uni-Drum from operating properly.
Anchor the frame's four foot pads securely to the floor.
The anchor bolts should be sized with sufficient safety
factor to withstand the downward force of the follower
plate and other objects that can push the frame off the
floor.

Operation Overview

The Uni-Drum is a supply system that evacuates fluids
from a 300 gallon (1200 liter) magnadrum or other tote
drums.
Each Uni-Drum includes two Graco air motors and
displacement pumps, a ram assembly with a follower
plate, a pneumatic layout panel that controls the air
components and a junction box panel that connects with
an electrical controller (supplied by the customer).
In short, the operator places the magnadrum inside the
frame with the follower plate placed directly on top of the
material. Locally, the system can be operated using the
pneumatic layout panel. Remotely, the system can be
operated using signals through the junction box panel.
Two displacement pumps evacuate material out of each
magnadrum. After removing the empty drum from the
system, the operator repeats the evacuation process
when another drum is ready for evacuation.
