FOREWARD The product certification scheme of the Bureau of Indian Standards, now under Bureau of Indian Standards Act 1986, is in operation, for more than four decades covering a wide variety of products. The wide experience in the area has bought a fair amount of rationalization in the certification process. This has resulted in the formulation of the Operation. Manual for Product Certification ( referred to as OMPC in this Manual) prescribing rules and practices generally applicable to all products. Products related rules/ guidelines are periodically issued to cover the specific requirement of different products. Still in view of the wide spread of the certification operations, differences are found in the application of these guidelines in the BIS certification offices in different parts of the country. Therefore, it has been decided to bring out sectoral manuals as guideline documents covering certification requirements of specific products/ group of products. This manual one in the series has been prepared to ensure uniformity in the certification practices in respect of Drums, Large, Fixed ends (Grade B drums) as per IS 1783 (Part 2): 1988 The manual is strictly an internal document intended for use by the certification marks offices of BIS In this manual, some useful information relating to the products characteristic, a few design aspects, limitations and constraints in its use, which is considered useful to the user, are included in a brief manner. This manual takes into consideration the generally acceptable practices. This document is intended for internal use by BIS inspecting officers who should however do not treat such document as replacement for referred standards or that of relevant scheme for testing and inspection ( STI) Standards and other documents (STI etc) referred are as applicable at the time of preparation of manual. However, latest Standards/ other documents as implemented shall be referred. All effort has been made to incorporate details as per the latest version of the standard. However as the standard are dynamic and subject to amendments and revisions, users are encouraged to check the latest version of the respective methods of test subsequent to issuance of the issue of the manual, before using the information contained herein.

1 SECTION I

1.1 Description Of Products:

The drums (also called barrels in common usage)are steel cylindrical containers for storing and shipping bulk cargo. The Grade B drums are made from cold rolled sheets of mild steel. The Grade B drums are commonly used for storage and transportation of lubricating oils and other non- hazardous chemicals. Type 1 drums are double seamed and have 1.25 mm sheet thickness. With the development of spiral seam construction which provides stronger seam joint so as to withstand any drop caused during transportation and handling it has been possible to reduce the thickness of the drums to 1.00 mm from 1.25 mm. These drums have been introduced as alternative to the conventional double seam drums and have been included under the same Grade B as Type 2. Both Type 1 & 2 drums have two rolling beads and hoops to facilitate easy rolling and also provide rigidity. Type 2 drums also have 2 sets of corrugations located symmetrically on either side of the rolling hoops to provide additional strength. These steel drums used for shipment of chemicals and petroleum products have a standardized bunghole arrangement, with one 50 mm and or one 50mm and one 20 mm threaded bunghole on opposite sides of the top. Screwed closures as per IS 1784 are fitted over them. Pumps to facilitate entry or exit of materials can be mounted on them.

3 MANUFACTURING PROCESS AND IN – PROCESS QUALITY CONTROLS

3.1 Description of Manufacturing Process

CR sheets are formed from CR coils after decoiling and leveling. Then they are sheared into appropriate sizes for body and ends. After edge grinding, the sheets for body are formed into open ended cylinders by body forming machine. Then they are spot welded (optional) and aligned and resistance seam welded. Then the rolling beads are expanded on body. After flanging and degreasing, corrugations are made on the body. Meanwhile circles are formed from the sheets sheared for the ends. The top is punched for fitting closures of 50mm and 20mm. The closures are fixed and then the ends are pre curled. Sealing compound is added around the edges. Finally body shells and top and bottom are simultaneously seamed in seaming machine and drums are formed. After pneumatic leakage tests, the drums are sent for cleaning, painting and drying. The drums are now ready and are stacked for dispatch.
