The model HDC-905-IDC crushes 55-gallon steel drums to approximately 6" high and resets automatically to crush another drum. Full cycle time is 25 seconds (crush and retract). This unit is designed for an intermittent duty cycle that will allow for crushing or compacting up to 250 drums per week in a typical non-hazardous, indoor room-temperature environment when operated on a three-phase power supply. For crushing or compacting a large volume of drums continuously, the HDC-905-HC is recommended. Both units are capable of 38,000 pounds of crushing force. The included drum compacting feature allows you to compact contents inside the drum by simply removing the drum crushing platen. Crushing feature will work with any drum size up to 55-gallons. Compacting feature will only work with 55-gallon drums. This convenient design gives you two pieces of equipment in one. Safety features include a pressure relief valve, which prevents overload, and a double door latch to secure the door when crushing. Plus an interlock system that will prevent the motor from running unless the door is closed. 6.5 hp motor, 3-phase, 60 hz, choose from 208V, 230V or 460V Meets OSHA 1910.212 and ANSI Z245.5 standards.
