types - A, B & C

Type A FIBC or Flexible Containers

Type A FIBC bags, or non-conductive bulk bags, prevent combustible dust explosions by using non-conductive materials that reduce static electricity buildup. Perfect for safely storing and transporting non-flammable materials, these bags meet stringent safety standards. They’re widely used in industries like agriculture, construction, and chemicals. Discover the advantages and versatile applications of Type A FIBC bags for secure bulk material handling.

  1. Type A FIBCs are manufactured using plain-woven polypropylene and other non-conductive fabrics.
  2. When a product is packed or emptied into a bag, it rubs up against the surface and generates a static charge.
  3. Should not be used to store a potentially combustible material or used to transport flammable products.
  4. Type A FIBCs don’t give static protection.
  5. Can transport non-combustible products safely.

Cautions: Type A FIBC or Flexible Containers

  1. Don’t transport flammable products
  2. Don’t let flammable solvents or gases accumulate around Type A FIBC.
  3. Don’t use near a flammable atmosphere with minimum ignition energy < 1,000mJ present.

Type B FIBC or Flexible Containers

Type B FIBC bags are designed to prevent the hazards of electrostatic charges during transportation. They use non-conductive materials to mitigate the risk of sparking, making them suitable for handling flammable materials safely.

Type A & Type B FIBCS are quite similar in some aspects. Let’s take a look at them:

  1. Also made of plain-woven polypropylene fabrics or other non-conductive material.
  2. Also, do not possess any mechanism for dissipating static electricity.
  3. While the bases are similar, Type B FIBC should be handled with more care to ensure your safety. Let’s fathom a few of them:
  4. Unlike Type A FIBCs, Type B is made from materials that have a low breakdown voltage to prevent an incident were highly energetic, and dangerous propagating brush discharges occur.
  5. Low breakdown voltage (< than 4KV) to halt propagating brush discharges (PBD).
  6. Although they can prevent propagating brush discharges, they are not considered anti-static bulk bags because they do not dispel an electrostatic charge.
  7. Can be used in the presence of minor combustible dust with MIE more than 3mj; provided flammable vapors of gases are absent.
  8. Can transport dry and flammable powders.

Cautions: Type B FIBC or Flexible Containers

  1. Don’t transport flammable products
  2. Don’t let flammable solvents or gases accumulate around Type B FIBC.
  3. Don’t use in environments with dust and ignition energies of more than 3mJ.
Type C FIBC or Bulk Bags

Type C FIBC bags, also known as conductive bulk bags, dissipate static electricity to prevent hazards when handling flammable materials. Learn how Type C bags enhance safety during transportation and storage.

If you are searching to fulfill Type C bulk bag needs, don’t forget to take a look at the pointers mentioned below to understand its specifications:

  1. The non-conductive polypropylene fabrics used to manufacture Type C FIBCs, also known as conductive FIBCs or ground-able FIBCs, are interwoven with conducting threads and conventionally sewed in a grid pattern.
  2. During filling and discharging, conducting threads must be electrically connected to one another and to a designated ground or earth.
  3. The safe use of Type C bulk bags depends on maintaining this connection to the earth or ground throughout filling and discharge.
  4. Flammable powders can be safely transported.
  5. Safe in the presence of flammable vapors, gases, dust, or solvents around the bag.

Cautions: Type C FIBC or Flexible Containers

  1. Don’t use it when the ground connection is not present or has been damaged.
  2. Use caution if there is resistance from any FIBC position to a groundable point.
