FLEXITANK – What is it ?
Flexitank actually is a huge
storage bag which can turn a
normal standard 20ft
container into a liquid tank.

It is made due to the size of
20'ft container. Normally, it's
volum is 24,000 liters.

outside.
 4. Cut the box of metal bars into cardboard pieces.
 5. Open the box of flexibag, and take the adhesive tape out.
 6. Cover the lash fittings under container side walls and the side lines
of container rear with cardboard pieces, and stick the cardboard by
adhesive tape.
 7. Recheck the container for sharp objects and hidden danger of
leakage.

– The Handling of the Container

– Spreading corrugated paper
 1. Spread the paper roll from left side of container
 2. 20cm of corrugated paper should be kept above the container floor
 3. Spread the other roll of corrugated paper over the right side of
container. Follow the same way as procedure 1&2
 4. Spreading and covering the paper roll over 3 container walls (side
wall → end wall →side wall). Firstly, please cover one side wall and fix
it from the top side with adhesive tape. Tape should be affixed every
5 lines of container corrugation.
 5. Fix the bottom side
 6. Covering the end wall with double layers of corrugated paper
 7. Follow the same way as procedure 4&5 to cover the other side wall
till all three walls are protected by corrugated paper.
 8. Abandon the residual corrugated paper after container is fully
protected.

– Spreading corrugated paper

– Fitting Bulk Head
 1. Put flexitank box into container, and take out the flexibag.
 2. Put the flexibag on the left side of container floor.
 3. Check to ensure all accessories complete
 4. Erect the cardboard bulkhead into container
 5. Crush one of the white tubes at one end.
 6. Inset the flatted end into left corner below the container door.
 7. Install the 30mm metal bar along the bottom side of container door, the end
should be inserted into the right slot.
 8. The left end should also be inserted into the slot.
 9. Crush another PVC tube at one end and insert it into the container corner
 10. Install the 50mm metal bars from bottom to top and all put into the slots
 11. One installing staff go inside of container and press the cardboard bulkhead

– Fitting Bulk Head

– Fitting The Flexitank
 1. Take flexibag out.
 2. Unhitch the ribbon of the flexibag.
 3. Spread the flexibag towards the container door.
 4. Expand the flexibag
 5. There is a mark line on end of flexibag. Keep it coincide with bottom end line
of container.
 6. Center line of flexibag as benchmarking
 7. Expand the flexibag towards two walls of the container. Two black mark lines
should be coincide with the two bottom side lines of the container.
 8. Install the bottom valve

 11. Revolve the PP spile anticlockwise at a 90 degree while keep the valve still.
 12. Put the valve through the valve hole
 13. Hang the flexibag with red ribbon and fix it to the second metal bar outside
 14. Clip the valve outside the hole and avoid valve retract into container when
loading.
 15. Fasten the clip and put on the valve cap.


 Automatic airvent operation
introduction:
 Load cargo from valve directly after
flexitank installed. The unique design of
airvent makes it available to exhaust air
when air pressure in flexitank reached
to 0.0065Mpa during loading and
transportation. This provided a normal
pressure in flexitank. Airvent is 100mm
height which could effectively prevent
liquid run out.

– Loading of Cargo
 1. Open the right door of container and then connect the soft tube
of quick connector and valve of the flexitank.
 Warning: don’t open the left door when loading!
 2. Open the handle of the valve.
 3. Hang the tube up at the door and check the tube and the joint
connection, make sure the connection is tight , turn on the power
and start loading .
 4. Stop pumping when it reached the limit capacity, close the valve
and disconnect the tube.
 5. Clock the right door and impose lead seal.
 Note: Arrange staff to watch the loading process, and watch
carefully to ensure there is no leakage because of insecure
connection.

– Discharging of Cargo
 1. Check the outlook and appearance of the container to see if any
leakage. If any leakage, contact the consigner immediately.
 2. Open the right door of the container and connect the quick
connector along with tube to the valve(Keep the left door of the
container closed).
 3. Connect the other side of the tube to the pump and a storage
container, open the handle of the valve, pour liquid into pump and
then turn on the power switch of the pump.
 4. When the liquid discharging is almost finishing, remove the bulk
head and slowly lift the tail of the flexitank, make the residual liquid
flow out of valve.
 5. When the liquid is completely discharged, take out the flexitank.
Discharge procedure finished.

BBL Flexitank Coupling
BBL common flexitank has

a 3” ball valve.

If your tube is 2” in

width, 3” to 2” quick

connector is available on

request.

Flexitank Discharging Pump Info.
 Must be self-priming and positive displacement pumps
 Air Driven pumps such as a Wilden or Sandpipers are
recommended
 Gear pumps are also recommended
 Centrifugal pumps cannot be used

Flexitank Disposal
 We here acknowledge 2 methods of flexitank disposal:

 1. Incineration
 Incineration is the preferred disposal method. This including deliver
the used flexitank with accessories to a designated and authorized
company who complies with local and environmental regulations.

 2. Landfill
 Landfill is the other disposal method. In this instance, all valves and
vent ports should be removed from the flexitank before landfilling.
The material of the flexitank should then be cut into pieces with
sizes no larger than 1sq.m. The material can then be delivered to a
designated and authorized company, which complies with local and
environmental regulations.
