You wanted a drum.Now you have a system

The Müller drum is the basic modulein an intelligent system: at the drop ofa hat a drum used for storage ortransportation becomes a processvessel meeting all the requirements ofa present-day production process. Toensure that your manufacturingprocess proceeds smoothly, the Müllersystem enables you to add items suchas hoppers, dryer inserts, dischargeaids, mixing hoods or sieves. It is alsocompatible with all process-relevantinterfaces: drum docking, dust-free fill-ing, handling equipment and emptyingat the production unit.

All components are harmonized witheach other in a modular system andare interchangeable. And, because theMüller system is so flexible, the drumfilling quantities or storage volumescan be adapted to suit your individualmanufacturing needs. This means that differing flow, mixing or chemicalproperties do not necessitate usingdozens of different containers, butonly the right combination of systemmodules. Standard sizes are availableex stock.

Perfection as a whole, ingeniousin detail:Müller lidded drums

We have the right container in theright quality to meet all your require-ments: Müller lidded drums in GMP-compliant pharma design, butt weldedwith no folds or crevices and thereforeeasy to clean without leaving anyresidues. Their very low tare weightwill come as a surprise, yet you canrely on maximum stability. The follow-

ing details reveal some of the otherfeatures offered by Müller drums:

– Volumes from 0.1 to 1000 Lin 16 different diameters

– Stainless steel in AISI 304,AISI 321, AISI 316L and 316Tigrades as well as Hastelloy andspecial materials

– UN certified for solid and liquidproducts

– 320 grit polished finish on surfacesfor optimum product discharge,Ra ≤ 0.6 μm

– Electrochemically polished finish and Halar or PTFE coatings alsoavailable for special duties

4

Simple and effective handling – the Müller special drumlid with its filling nozzle forms a closed system for reliabledust-free drum filling.

Double means less trouble – in a harsh processenvironment double-walled drums offer that crucialextra ruggedness and safety.

Volume takes up space – and space costs money.Nestable tapered drums save space. They stack togethersnugly, reducing your space requirements by two-thirds,from the second drum onwards.Highly practical, highly cost-effective, highly recommended.

Components designed for accurate interchangeabilityconvert the drum into a process vessel – for example theMüller dryer insert for granular products and tablets.

5

Double-walled drums for maintaining the contents at adesired temperature – smooth inner wall, outer wall with aspiral channel so that the cooling or heating medium always finds its way.

Empty space in a drum has obvious disadvantages –bulky shipping and warehousing volumes also cost money.The Müller mixing hood, attached to the drum by clampingring, provides the required freeboard space only when it is needed, not before.

Müller drums are designed for a range of ambient condi-tions – and at the same time they adapt to varying processconditions. Liquids can also be discharged reliably andcompletely under pressure – no problem with the Müllerriser-tube lid.

Müller is good in a tight spot – the user-friendly side outletguarantees complete drum emptying even under low headroom conditions. The type and size of the side outletcan be selected at will.

Handling with care

Many processes involve liquids suchas acids and alkalis and other hazardous substances, or high purityor toxic media. And they must often be warehoused or shipped underextreme conditions such as high pressures or temperatures. In contrast,the pharmaceutical industry specificallycalls for hygienic design of product-contacted hardware. Drums withbungs must be appropriately designedand constructed particularly safely tomeet these challenging conditions.

It is precisely here that Müller drumswith bungs are in their element. Thecrucial factors in this sector are thecorrect choice of materials and smoothinterior finishes with no unhygieniccrevices in the drums. Not forgettingthe various types of closures and seals.

Hopper cans combine the advantagesof lidded drums and those with bungs:lightweight construction, safe handling,product transfer without the need for a separate hopper, and a largeopening for cleaning.

Modular product concept, widevariety of closures, especially suitable for troublesome liquids:Müller drums with bungs

Whenever safe warehousing, trans-portation and handling of high purity,hazardous or toxic media are calledfor, Müller stainless steel drums withbungs display their special strengths.The dished bottom, the crevice-free,smooth-finish drum interior and the position of the closures guaranteecomplete emptying and reliable disposal of the drum contents. On the subject of safety: all standarddrums bear the UN certification for

various substance classes and hazardlevels, e.g. UN 1A1/X2.0/700. Thisapplies also to numerous other designvariants:

– Capacities from 10 to 250 liters invarious diameters

– Stainless steel in AISI 304 and AISI316L grade as well as Hastelloy andspecial materials

– 320 grit polished finish on surfaces,Ra ≤ 0.6 μm, electrochemicallypolished finish and Halar or PTFEcoatings also available for specialduties (flanged version)

– Folded drums for transportationduties, e.g. for the flavors andfragrances industry

– Ultraclean version for thesemiconductor industry

Rugged base ring

Automatic emptying is more reliable than the manual way –under compressed air pressure the product is dischargedcompletely via the riser tube into the production line.

We are well equipped to meet the stringent hygiene regula-tions in the pharmaceutical and semiconductor industries –ultraclean drums with sterile closures, internal and externalsurfaces crevice-free, GMP- and FDA-compliant.

We want to make your processes not only more reliable but also more efficient and profitable – Müller drums cantherefore be supplied as stackable units that are easily handled by forklift truck, since horizontal returnable containers take full advantage of high-bay warehousing.

The safe alternative to glass bottles in laboratories:bottles and jars in stainless steel – unbreakable and withUN-certification.

Challenging requirements, elegantsolutions, waste-free handling

The filling of drums and the transfer oftheir contents are special situations,since each time the product comesinto contact with the environment.Symmetric and asymmetric hopperswith shut-off butterfly valves in nominaldiameters up to 300 mm make thecomplete operation dust-free andwaste-free, and are not restricted onlyto Müller drums.

Various cones and discharge aids,from rotary hooks to pneumatic vibra-tors, contribute to a problem-freeemptying process. And the beauty ofit is that the hopper is only fitted whenand where it is needed. This savesspace and is highly cost-effective.

– The hoppers can be fitted with butter-fly valves of various diameters for allMüller lidded drums from Ø 170 mmto Ø 800 mm

– The hoppers are symmetric with 60°or 90° cones or asymmetric. Cones with special angles can also be supplied

– 320 grit polished finish on surfaces,Ra ≤ 0.6 μm, electrochemically polished finish and Halar or PTFE coatings also available for special duties

Secure and simple closurewith the drum clampingring for an airtight joint, ifdesired specially adaptedto your drum (metal,fiber, plastic)

All for one and one for all:Müller hoppers

The Müller hopper system sets newstandards for safety, speed and cost-effectiveness. Our hoppers arespecially designed for the reliable,dust-free and metered discharge ofdrum contents. Ingenious simplicity –just fit the hopper manually, close theclamping ring, ready to go. Thepatented MC butterfly valve makescleaning simple and quick.

14

Ingenious operating principle –the inverting frame can get to grips even with tapered andsmooth-walled drums. It is welded directly to the hopper.

No problem even if your drum has an internal liner.The plastic bag is held in place by a retaining rod and cannot give you the slip.

At home in its nest – the drum is always the focal point. The nest automatically centers and securely supports thedrum – together with its hopper – in the right position.

Asymmetrical hoppers urge even bad flowing products to get a move on.

Fast, mobile and ready for actionat all times

With the Müller system silos can beused equally well for warehousing andtransportation as for blending, filling,charging and discharging duties. Theirmain attraction, however, is their rangeof capacities from 5 to 1200 liters. Thismakes them highly versatile units forliquids, powders or paste-like media,suitable for tasks from laboratory scaleright up to large batch manufacturing.Silos can be cleaned quickly and easilythrough their large openings.

In the Müller system these silos can becombined with all other modules, suchas appropriately sized carriages oncastors and mating components. Thisenables a single silo to be used cost-effectively: as collecting drum, feedtank or mixing vessel.

Designed and fabricated for practical needs: Müller silos

Müller silos play a cost-effective role in those operations where it is notpractical or desirable to invert theproduct container. A typical applicationis when feeding a production linethrough an opening in the floor above.The open head of the silo makescleaning it no problem before returningit for refilling.

Various discharge cones are availableto suit the flow properties of the medium: 60° or 90° symmetric orasymmetric cones.

– Stainless steel in AISI 304, AISI 321and AISI 316L quality as well asHastelloy and special materials

– For solid and liquid products– 320 grit polished finish on surfaces,

Ra ≤ 0.6 μm, for optimum productdischarge

– Electrochemically polished finish andHalar or PTFE coatings also avail-able for special duties

18

Mobile at all times – the silo in its highly practical wheeledcarriage, also available with electrically conducting castors.Depending on the process concerned, the hopper bin either rests on the support pads or is permanently welded to the carriage.

Filling between the floors – the silo is simply moved overthe opening in the upper floor and docked onto the fall tube. Its contents can then be directly discharged into themachine on the floor below.

Silo with filling nozzle in the lid – for a simple dust-free filling operation. Trunnions are provided on the body of thebin for lifting by crane or in a Müller yoke.

Pneumatic filling – this silo is filled through a vacuum conveying line. An air filter is mounted on the silo lid by aclamping ring.

XXL format – big is beautiful: quantity with Müller quality

Whenever large quantities of productare manufactured and high bulk densi-ties are involved, various sizes andshapes of container are called for. Thisis where the Müller container systemfits the bill, with variants adapted tothe duty concerned to offer the bestpossible solution. With capacities of upto 2000 liters it can be adapted to feedlarger quantities of free-flowing materi-al and bulk solids to the productionprocess while still complying with thestringent requirements for chemical,pharmaceutical or food products.Large volumes and heavy loadsrequire not only the right container butalso the correct handling to go with it. Many examples and typical applications are given in the brochure 1.2 Müller Handling Systems.
