| Résumé : |
When FIBCs are filled and discharged, the flow of finely powdered material causes the build-up of static electricity. This technical update looks at how to avoid this generating a spark and subsequent explosion.
A carefully planned approach to mitigating static electricity when handling FIBCs can make all the difference to outcomes especially when handling flammable and combustible materials. The start point is selecting the most appropriate Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers (FIBCs). IEC 61340-4-4: 2018, describes four types of FIBCs, defined by their construction, the nature of their intended operation and associated performance requirements : Type 1, Type B, Type C and Type D.
