FAQ – Frequently asked questions about PE spill trays
Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions about PE spill trays
When do I need PE spill trays?
Polyethylene (PE) spill trays offer high durability resistant to corrosive substances such as acids and alkalis, so they are often the right choice. They can also be used for many non-flammable substances, such as oils. It can also be helpful to check the material of the original container in which the hazardous substance was supplied by the manufacturer; this is a simple but very reliable method. Ideally, you should consult the substance’s safety data sheet; here you will find all the information you need on correct storage.
Are there also steel spill trays with a PE lining?
Lacont can generally also Steel spill trays Line with PE. This is mainly used when the spill trays have to bear heavy loads or when specific tray dimensions are required which are not available with standard PE trays.
Please note that the PE linings are fitted at the factory and cannot be fitted at a later date.
What should you do if flammable acids or alkalis are being stored?
When flammable acids or alkalis are stored, spill trays (or the PE lining of the steel tray) must be made of conductive PE; in most cases, steel sumps with conductive PE liners are used; these sumps combine the high resistance of plastic to corrosive substances with the conductive properties that are otherwise often only offered by metal sumps.
Do LaCont’s PE spill trays have type approval?
Yes, our PE drip trays have the necessary certification marks and general building authority approvals from the DIBt Berlin (German Institute for Building Technology). They therefore comply with the legal requirements of the Water Resources Act (WHG) for use in Germany.
What capacity does the tray need?
The collection capacity must be at least 10 % of the total quantity stored above the sump amount to – but in any event at least the Volume of the largest single container. The higher of the two values is decisive. In water protection areas, the 100% sump must be capable of accommodating the volume stored above it.
Can I store different hazardous substances together in a single sump?
Only if no hazardous reactions are to be expected and the rules on the storage of incompatible substances set out in TRGS 510 are observed. To this end, carry out a risk assessment and check the storage classes of the substances in question. The storage compatibility table in accordance with TRGS 510, as well as consulting the safety data sheets for the substances, is often helpful.
How often should spill trays be inspected?
Periodic inspections are mandatory in accordance with the WHG, AwSV, TRGS and the operating instructions for the sumps. A distinction can be made as follows:
Regular checks during operation. Should any damage occur or be detected whilst using or working with the trays, these trays must be taken out of service immediately. When using the trays on the premises, care must always be taken to ensure that they are kept free of any spilled substances, water or dirt.
Weekly inspection / visual check by trained operational staff for cracks, deposits and spilled liquids
Detailed inspection: For spill trays, a 2-year interval is often required for in-depth inspections. These must be carried out by external, independent and qualified testing bodies. The test results must be recorded in writing and retained for inspection by the authorities
Following any repair, a leak test must be carried out by the manufacturer or a specialist company.
