VARIBOX FC 800 and Drumtainer Safeline Performance EPDM

The VARIBOX FC 800 and Drumtainer Safeline Performance EPDM extractor tube provides a straightforward way to connect your chemical container directly to pumping equipment. Developed for both the VARIBOX FC 800 and Drumtainer, it creates a dedicated extraction route from the lowest point of the inner container to the Safeline connection at the top.

Together with the matching VARIBOX Safeline Coupler EPDM, the extractor tube allows liquid chemicals to be pumped from the container without opening the IBC during normal dispensing.

This creates a closed connection between chemical packaging and process equipment, helping operators handle chemicals in a controlled and consistent way.

One Connection Principle for Two VARIBOX Solutions

The VARIBOX FC 800 and Drumtainer serve different chemical handling requirements, but both can use the same Safeline Performance EPDM extractor tube.

For organisations working with both solutions, this provides a consistent approach to connecting containers to pumping installations. Operators can work with the familiar Safeline connection principle regardless of whether the chemical is supplied in an FC 800 or handled using a Drumtainer.

Standardising the dispensing interface can simplify everyday operation and makes Safeline a practical choice for sites where different VARIBOX solutions are used.

Extract Product from the Lowest Point

Efficient emptying starts with the position of the extractor tube.

The Safeline Performance tube extends down to the lowest point of the inner container. This enables the connected pump to draw product from the bottom while the dispensing connection remains conveniently accessible at the top.

Reaching this low point helps make effective use of the chemical inside the container and minimises the amount of product that remains after dispensing.

For industrial chemicals, reducing residue is valuable both economically and operationally. More of the delivered product can be used for its intended purpose, while less residual chemical remains to be managed afterwards.

Keep Chemical Transfer Closed

Safeline Performance is designed to eliminate the need to open the VARIBOX during normal product extraction.

The corresponding Safeline Coupler EPDM connects the extractor tube to the external pumping system. Once connected, the product can be transferred through the dedicated extraction route rather than through an open filling connection.

This closed dispensing principle helps keep chemical products and toxic fumes inside the system, reducing opportunities for unwanted release during normal operation.

It also creates a clear separation between the operator and the chemical being transferred.

Easy Connection to Your Pumping Equipment

Safeline Performance is designed around practical daily use.

The extractor tube remains installed in the container, providing a fixed interface for the corresponding Safeline coupler. Your external pumping equipment can be connected through the coupler when the chemical is required.

This makes changing between compatible VARIBOX containers straightforward: connect the correct Safeline Coupler EPDM, extract the product through the closed system and disconnect according to the applicable operating procedure when the container is ready for exchange.

The result is a simple interface between reusable chemical packaging and the equipment that consumes the product.

Red Connection for Clear EPDM Identification

Correct component selection is particularly important when different sealing configurations are present on the same site.

The Safeline Performance EPDM extractor tube has a red connection point, providing a clear visual indication of the EPDM configuration. The tube itself has a neutral colour.

This identification helps operators distinguish the EPDM system from other Safeline configurations and select the corresponding Safeline Coupler EPDM.

Clear identification at the connection point supports a more consistent working method, particularly at locations handling multiple chemicals or VARIBOX configurations.

EPDM, PE and Stainless Steel 316 Construction

The extractor tube is manufactured from EPDM, polyethylene (PE) and Stainless Steel 316.

These materials form the dedicated EPDM configuration of this Safeline Performance product.

Material compatibility remains an important consideration when selecting dispensing equipment for chemicals. The suitability of the EPDM configuration should therefore always be verified for the specific chemical being handled, including relevant concentration, temperature and operating conditions.

VARIBOX FC 800 and Drumtainer Safeline Performance EPDM Built Around Safer Chemical Handling

The Safeline Performance EPDM extractor tube supports the wider VARIBOX approach to Safer, Reusable and Sustainable chemical packaging.

Safer

Closed dispensing means the VARIBOX does not need to be opened during normal extraction. Product is transferred through the Safeline system, helping keep chemicals and fumes contained while creating separation between the operator and the product.

Reusable

The extractor tube forms part of a reusable chemical packaging concept. Individual components within the VARIBOX system can be maintained and replaced when necessary, supporting continued use over multiple cycles.

Sustainable

Efficient extraction from the lowest point helps make better use of the chemical inside the container. Combined with reusable VARIBOX packaging and replaceable system components, this supports a more resource-efficient approach to industrial chemical supply.

A Consistent Safeline Connection from Container to Process

The VARIBOX FC 800 and Drumtainer Safeline Performance EPDM combines efficient product extraction with a closed and recognisable dispensing connection.

Its red EPDM connection makes the configuration easy to identify, while the tube reaches the lowest point of the inner container to support effective emptying. Combined with the matching Safeline Coupler EPDM, it provides a direct connection between the VARIBOX and your pumping equipment.

Whether used with the VARIBOX FC 800 or Drumtainer, Safeline Performance provides a consistent way to bring your chemical from container to process.

Connect, dispense and change containers through one familiar Safeline Performance EPDM system.
