TYPE II & III TRACK COLLECTOR PAN SYSTEM

	Protection against spills Managers of industrial or railroad facilities handling oil, fuel and chemicals are aware that event he most careful procedures cannot totally eliminate spills in areas where rail cars and locomotives are loaded, unloaded, washed or fueled. It's a serious problem because the spilled substances can damage the environment as well as cross ties and equipment. SynTechnics FRP (Fiberglas Reinforced Plastic) Track Collector Pan Systems offer protection by collecting and isolating spills for treatment and disposal. Properly installed to connect with permanent waste treatment systems, they can limit environmental problems caused by uncollected spillage, and reduce downtime for equipment repair.
	Simple, efficient systems System components include collector pans that attach to rails and cross drains that connect with pre-installed underground pipes or trenches. Substances flow to a sump or collection tank for treatment or disposal. Through years of field experience and testing, the SynTechnics FRP Track Collector Pan Systems have been developed and refined to achieve design simplicity and system economy. The FRP Systems offer the following advantages over alternative methods: Standard pan sections are 19'-9" and 39'-5" long and cover widths from 10' to 14'. Pans will fit most sizes of rail including the 90 pound rail often used at loading and unloading sites. All SynTechnics Track Collector Pans can be manufactured to fit curved tracks up to 21° and areas around switches. The pan walking surface can be made with a permanent "non-skid" texture or smooth surface for maximum corrosion resistance. The greatest advantage of SynTechnics FRP Track Collector Pan Systems is the reasonable TOTAL INSTALLED COST.
	Corrosion resistance Fiberglass has earned a reputation for its resistance to corrosion from aggressive substances. The SynTechnics FRP track Collector Pan System stands up against many chemicals that would prove highly destructive to steel or concrete systems. SynTechnics. manufacturing process makes use of specially selected resins which resist corrosion in customer-specified chemical environments. In these specific applications, customer testing for compatibility will verify their performance of the resins.

Component Description:

Easy installation, minimal maintenance Installation of SynTechnics FRP Track Collector Pan Systems requires minimal downtime. Because fiberglass is lightweight, a small crew can install the system without heavy handling equipment. Components can be removed and replaced, without damage, if cross ties need repair. System components require little maintenance. Durability is not affected by temperatures between -50°F and +130°F. Any damage to components can be repaired with simple hand tools, Replacement components can be reordered within a short lead time.
Center pan section Sections are snapped into place and "float" between the rails. No fasteners or fixed connectors are used, so the system is not affected by track shift or road bed movement.
Side pan section Pan sections are continuous between cross ties. there are no lateral joints to connect.
Drain cover/cross walk Liquids spilled on collector pans flow along the pan into the cross drain. The drain cover helps keep litter out of drains and is recessed for safety.
Cross drain Liquids collect in the cross drain, then flow through a tapered sleeve into previously installed underground pipes. Drains are fixed to cross ties by supports and lag screws.
