Flexicon BULK-OUT bulk bag discharging system for explosive environments model features a pneumatically-powered hoist and trolley to raise and position the bag inside the discharger frame, to reduce the risk of sparks from electrical equipment or fork trucks that might be otherwise used for this function. A SPOUT-LOCK clamp ring forms a high-integrity, dust-tight seal between the clean side of the bag spout and the clean side of the equipment, according to the manufacturer, while a TELE-TUBE telescoping tube maintains constant downward tension on the bag as it empties and elongates, promoting complete discharge of free- and non-free-flowing material from the bag.
