Våttvätskewipp

Våttvätskewipp is a term used in some Swedish industrial contexts to describe a portable, enclosed container intended for the collection, transport, and temporary storage of wet liquids encountered in process operations. The concept is used in settings where liquids must be moved between workstations or prepared for treatment without using open drums. The exact usage can vary by company and sector.

Design and features: våttvätskewips are typically made of stainless steel or corrosion-resistant coated steel and are designed to be watertight. Common features include a drain valve, a vent, a level indicator, and a secure lid. Many variants have forklift pockets or a pallet base for easy handling; some models integrate a small transfer pump.

Applications: they are used to collect condensate, wash water, cleaning fluids, or other process liquids during production, maintenance, or laboratory tasks. They simplify handling and help prevent spills when moving liquids to treatment units, storage tanks, or disposal points.

Safety and regulation: selection requires consideration of chemical compatibility and temperature. Operators should follow labeling, secondary containment, and spill response requirements, and ensure proper training. Regular inspection for corrosion, leaks, and valve integrity is recommended.

Etymology and status: the term reflects regional terminology and does not correspond to a single standardized term in Swedish catalogs. In practice, similar devices may be called liquid skips, portable liquid containers, or waste skips, depending on industry and supplier.
