Andax Industries has introduced the Tarptainer, a safety containment system for large electric utility transformers and other equipment that allows for minimal ground clearance and enables crews to maintain a safe distance from suspended loads.

The Tarptainer can be placed under transformers or equipment with as little as 1 inch of ground clearance. The sides remain flat during positioning, eliminating the need for crew members to hold them upright while heavy equipment is suspended. Once the equipment is in place, the sidewalls fold up and are secured with locking corners. The Tarptainer’s self-supporting sidewalls help prevent slips, trips and falls without the need for protruding support legs.

Available in three sizes, with the largest featuring a 96-inch-x-96-inch absorbent area, there is ample space for accurate transformer placement. The included webbing straps with buckles can be placed over the transformer so that the equipment can be lifted and moved with the containment system in place. Custom sizes are available to meet specific application requirements. www.andax.com
