Q&A
What are the benefits of a pneumatic waste compactor over a hydraulic waste compactor?
Pneumatic compactors use far less energy to run. Mil-tek’s patented ECO-Drive system applies constant downward pressure using the available power, thereby further compacting waste without using additional energy. Pneumatic machines are also quieter in operation and contain no inherent risk of oil contamination or electrical fire.
Can a Mil-tek Offshore Waste Compactor be installed inside a kitchen where food is being prepared?
Yes you can. The Offshore Waste Compactor is designed for exactly this. It has a stainless steel frame meaning it is ideal for kitchens, it is low on both noise and energy usage, and it’s small size further enhances its flexibility.
How does the XP100S Compactor assist with offshore waste management?
In a word: compaction. Waste takes up room. It’s a bulky nuisance and in offshore environments, space is key. With a Mil-tek 100S Offshore Waste Compactor, you can compact non-recyclable waste by a factor of 10:1. freeing up precious space.
What level of service and maintenance does the XP100S require?
Like most good machines, we recommend an annual service by a certified Mil-tek technician to ensure a healthy and long-lasting machine. In Offshore environments, this might not be practically possible, so be sure to speak to a consultant about service options and spare parts kits when you buy.
