Capture hazardous spills from railroad tanker cars

Accidents happen—especially is transferring bulk liquids and other chemicals into railcars. And when those materials are hazardous, they pose significant risks to your workers, the environment, and your bottom line. Thankfully, SafeRack offers numerous products designed to mitigate the risks associated with leaks and spills that occur during the loading or unloading of railcars. Each solution—whether metal or Polyethylene — is built to contain spills and leaks at the source and help prevent a small problem from becoming much larger and costly.

• Modular Railcar Track Pan design can be customized to meet your specific railroad spill containment needs can be added to protect any length of railroad track.
• Solutions for collecting small leaks OR to capture and channel off larger spills caused by defective equipment or a major overflow.
• An economical, easy to install railroad spill solution.
• Durable and long-lasting with an estimated usable work span of 20-30 years.

Key Features:

• Modular design – Center and Side Pans are 53.5″ long; railroad spill containment areas can be easily assembled to any length desired
• All-polyethylene construction – Rugged Track Pans function in temperatures ranging from -40°F to +140°F and designed to withstand harsh chemicals.
• Sealed System – Polyethylene gaskets keep spills from falling between the rails and Pans. Trucks and other vehicles can drive over Track Pans with grates in place*.
• Below grade piping – All Center and Side Track Pans are molded with pipe fitting locators at their lowest point. Below grade piping can be installed to channel large spills to oil/water separators, holding ponds, etc.
• The unique stormwater feature is designed to eliminate “pooling” of rain that falls on top of the Center Pan Covers; rain is channeled onto the ballast between the tracks, stays out of the Pans.
• Low Maintenance – unlike carbon steel track pans, Ultra-Track Pans will not rust or corrode. Polyethylene resin is treated with a UV inhibitor, resists the degrading effects of the sun.
