Ram Flat - Model 55ER -Drum Compactor
Built for medium to heavy duty applications & volume using 55-gallon drums. With a powerful 60,000 pounds of compaction force, the Model 55ER is perfect for inside-the-drum applications like paint filters, rags or low-level. A full 15 inches of clearance above the drum allow operators the ability to load the drums without removing the drum from the compactor. This extra clearance is also important to permit “overfilling” of the drum to maximize the amount of waste compacted on every cycle.
Despite being our “middle of the road” compaction force model, the rolled plate-steel compaction chamber and automatic pushbutton controls are similar as what is used on our continuous-use Model 55AR. As a matter of fact, the 55AR and 55ER have the same pump and high-pressure hydraulic system. The 55ER is truly built to last.
Looking to crush drums, too? Like most of our RAM FLAT Compactors, the 55ER can easily be configured to crush empty drums by adding the optional bolt-on crushing plate. This simple to use add-on attaches an oversized platen to the smaller diameter compaction head allowing you to use one machine for both applications.
For dedicated 55-gallon drum crushing, check out the little brother of the Model 55ER, the Model 55E. These two models share the same basic construction, controls and hydraulics but the shorter compaction chamber height (38.5 inches tall) allows the 55E to crush a drum to a height of 4.5 inches tall in 40 seconds.
