TFC Adds New Safety
Features To Marine
Compactor Line
Maritime models of the Pollution
Packer waste compactors/recyclers
now include a "heavy seas" door
stop on the compaction compart-
ment door; it prevents the door from
swinging while cubes of compacted
wastes are being removed or when
empty cubes are being inserted.
Also, these compactors are now
being equipped with "sea legs" that
can be inserted in the wheel slots
and then welded or bolted to a
ship's deck.
Both of these new features are
available on all four sizes and mod-
els in the Pollution Packer line, pro-
viding appropriate sizes for the
smallest oceangoing ship to the larg-
est luxury liners.

plete information on Pollution
