What safety features are typically included?

Units commonly include 'hold to run' controls, emergency stop buttons, and hydraulic safety check valves to prevent uncontrolled descent in case of hose failure. Guards may also be present depending on the specific design and risk assessment.

Is this type of equipment suitable for washdown environments?

Yes, units constructed from Grade 304 stainless steel with IP65 rated electrical enclosures are generally designed to withstand regular washdown, making them suitable for hygiene-critical food processing environments.

Can this tipper handle different bin sizes?

This specific unit is designed for 120-litre wheelie bins. While some tippers offer adjustable cradles for various bin types, buyers should confirm compatibility with their specific bin dimensions and types directly with the seller.

What are the typical installation requirements?

Installation commonly requires a level, solid floor for bolting down the unit and access to a suitable electrical power supply. Specific requirements for space and clearances should be considered.

What maintenance is typically required for a hydraulic tipper?

Routine maintenance for hydraulic tippers typically involves checking hydraulic fluid levels, inspecting hoses and seals for wear, and ensuring electrical connections are secure. Regular lubrication of moving parts may also be required.

BTH/250/500/B Hydraulic 120 Litre Wheelie Bin Tipper

This 120 Litre Wheelie Bin Tipper was designed to lift and tip a standard 120 Litre Wheelie Bin at a height of 500mm at the edge of a Loading Bay directly into a skip and had a Safe Working Load of 250 Kgs. The 120 Litre Wheelie Bin Tipper was constructed from Grade 304 stainless steel, was a fully welded construction throughout and was designed to be bolted to the floor. This 120 Litre Wheelie Bin Tipper was powered via a hydraulic powerpack and tipped the container by the extension of a hydraulic cylinder to an angle of 30 degrees past the horizontal. The hydraulic cylinder was fitted with a safety check valve such that even in the unlikely event of a hydraulic hose failure, the raised bin would not fall to the floor.

120 Litre Wheelie Bin Tipper Electrical Control

This 120 Litre Wheelie Bin Tipper was fitted with an IP65 Control Panel mounted on the main frame at a convenient position to give good maintenance access under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulation 1998 (PUWER). The unguarded 120 Litre Wheelie Bin Tipper operates on a ‘hold to run’ principle such that the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ pushbuttons must be held for the Tipper to operate. As soon as either button is released, the Tipper will stop. The control panel has a volt free pair of contacts which can be used to connect a ‘Call to Run’ signal if required.

Typical capacity: Designed for standard 120-litre wheelie bins, commonly with a Safe Working Load (SWL) for this class of equipment ranging from 150kg to 300kg.
Construction material: Units for food processing are typically constructed from Grade 304 stainless steel, with fully welded construction for hygiene and durability.
Tipping height: Commonly designed to tip at heights suitable for loading bays or into skips, often around 500mm to 1500mm, depending on the specific application.
Power supply: Typically powered by a self-contained hydraulic powerpack, requiring a standard industrial electrical supply, commonly 400V, 3-phase, 50Hz.
Control system: Units of this type commonly feature an IP65 rated control panel with 'hold to run' pushbuttons for operator safety and control.
Mounting: Often designed for floor mounting, requiring secure bolting to a suitable concrete base for stability during operation.

Units commonly include 'hold to run' controls, emergency stop buttons, and hydraulic safety check valves to prevent uncontrolled descent in case of hose failure. Guards may also be present depending on the specific design and risk assessment.

Lifting and tipping equipment for food handling is valued for durability and reliability in demanding environments. Buyers typically prioritize robust construction, stainless steel components where applicable, and compliance with food safety standards. When purchasing used models, inspectors should assess mechanical wear, hydraulic system condition, and operational smoothness. Common strengths include longevity when properly maintained, efficient load handling, and adaptability to various food processing workflows. Equipment reputation generally remains strong provided previous maintenance records are documented and critical seals show minimal degradation.
