Containment system for product loading

Ensure safe handling of hazardous materials with this containment system, designed to prevent dust and contamination during product unloading and feeding. Ideal for processes requiring precise transfer and containment of sensitive powders and granulates.

Ensures Dust-Free Unloading and Containment

The RNT-CON system by Volkmann provides a robust solution for the safe handling of highly potent and toxic materials. This contained product loading station features a modular design, allowing seamless integration into existing production lines involved in pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and nutraceuticals. It facilitates the dust-free unloading, emptying, and conveying of powders and granulates through a vacuum method, ensuring both product integrity and operator safety. The RNT-CON’s glove box isolator and optional dust lock enhance containment, minimizing exposure to hazardous dust.

Designed for operations within demanding environments, the system accommodates semi-automatic processes and includes options such as lump breakers, continuous Multijector de-dusting, and filtration systems. This ensures efficient processing without sacrificing accuracy or safety.

Volkmann’s RNT-CON also supports comprehensive cleaning protocols, featuring integrated WIP/CIP/SIP systems to maintain hygiene standards and minimize cross-contamination risks. Its adaptability extends to the material handling, offering additional components like roller conveyors, vacuum lifting hoists, and bag compactors for streamlined operations. The system complies with regulations pertinent to pharmaceutical and chemical industries, supporting GMP and FDA standards, making it an ideal choice for maintaining high production quality and compliance.
