Because this new type of fuel is flammable, it is
also required that the conveyor system works
within a flame-proof environment, which is why
the customer opted for the Liftube Atex-rated
solution. Combined with a water-sprinkling
system, the Liftube Atex allows the customer to
comply with existing regulations.
Standard Industrie delivered to this producer of
derived fuel 25 m of Liftube Atex 650 (belt width).
