IBC Totes
Caged Intermediate Bulk Containers
- Capacity= 1000 Litres
- Dimensions: generally near the common pallet standard dimension of 1,200 mm × 1,000 mm footprint.
- 1040 Litres (275 gallons) = 1143mm L x 1016 W x 1168 H (45″L x 40″W x 46″H)
- 1249 Litres (330 gallons) = 1219mm L x 1016 W x 1346 H, (48″L x 40″W x 53″H)
- Port outlets: top port inlet with cap for filling of cargo (commonly 6″, 152mm) with a bottom discharge outlet port–common is 2″ (50mm) ball valves
- IBC Tote Pressure: Automatic relief vents allow Chemical IBC totes to withstand internal pressures up to 1Bar, (100 kPa, 15 psi).
