SaniForce ElevatorGraco’s SaniForce Elevator Saves Time, Money, and Reduces Risk to Workers

The Elevator is designed to have a Graco Piston Pump (2:1, 5:1 or 6:1) paired with it to empty drums quickly and efficiently without the hassle of hoists, cranes or chains. Leaving the barrels on the floor also reduces the chances of an accident from dropped or knocked over drums. Fluids up to 100,000 cPs can easily be pumped, and the unit can be bolted to the floor or mounted on a rolling frame for mobility.

  • FDA-compliant
  • Designed to lower pumps into and lift pumps out of drums, bins and totes
  • Articulating arm allows for multiple containers unloaded from the same location
  • Mobile and stationary options available
