Description

The Ultra-Pellet Pan Composite is a high-capacity, railside containment system designed to capture plastic pellets and resin spills during rail tanker unloading. Its 6-metre length and built-in drainage system allow effective pellet containment while letting water drain through, helping to prevent environmental contamination.

The durable composite construction is suited for long-term use and can be customised to meet specific site requirements. It installs easily without excavation, making it a practical choice for busy industrial rail environments.

Important: Not suitable for containing liquids.

Features

Durable Construction: Made from high-strength, nonporous, corrosion-resistant fibre glass for long-lasting performance.
Low-Profile Design: Measures 6 metres long and 114 mm high – ideal for use along rail tracks.
Pandrol Compatible: Designed to integrate with Pandrol rail fastening systems for seamless installation.
Railside Gasket Sealing System: Prevents pellets from escaping between the rail and the containment pan.
Simple Installation: Requires minimal site preparation with no need for excavation.
Optional Safety Grating: Polyethylene (LLDPE) grating package available to improve safety for foot traffic.

FAQs

How does rainwater drain from the Ultra Pellet Pan Composite?

Each pan is fitted with several 76mm drains. Two in each of the standard pans, and three in each composite pan.

Could pellet blockages occur in the drainage system?

No, water will drain regardless of the number of pellets that are contained. However, it is important (and not just for proper drainage) that any pellets that are contained by the pans be removed as soon as possible.

What is the installation procedure for the pans?

The installation process for either pan is relatively simple and requires only basic hand tools. Detailed instructions are available here. Product specialists and our technical team are also available should you need further assistance. Please feel free to call them at 1300 912 949

Is it possible to detach the pans for cleaning or inspection post-installation?

Yes, while the Ultra Pellet Pan Composite is designed for a long-term installation, it can be removed if necessary.

Is grating essential?

The grating is required in standard pans and recommended (but not necessary) for composite pans.

What tools are necessary for Ultra Pellet Pan Composite installation?

Basic tools that would be available in almost all workshops are all that is required for the installation. Some slightly more specialised tools may be needed for site preparation. Please see the installation instructions here for a complete list.

Are deflector shields mandatory?

Not necessary but HIGHLY recommended. Without them, the pellets are very likely to bounce out of the pans and into the surrounding environment.

Are drains obligatory?

Without drains, they are not pellet pans. UltraTech’s other railroad containment products, the Ultra Pellet Pan Composite, are essentially the same as pellet pans but without drains so that they can be used to contain liquid leaks and spills.

What is the minimum size of pellet that the pans can capture?

The drains in the Ultra Pellet Pan Composite are designed to capture pellets 1mm in diameter or larger.

What is the shipping method for Ultra Pellet Pan Composite?

Because of the length of the Ultra Pellet Pan Composite, they must be side-loaded onto a dedicated flatbed or Conestoga truck. Even a single pan will require this method of shipping. Center pans stack 6 high, and side pans ship 12 high.

How many Ultra Pellet Pan Composite can fit on a truck for shipping?

A total of 12 centers and 24 sides can fit on one 15m flatbed. If shipping alone, 12 centers can ship on one truck and 48 sides can fit on one truck.
