This IBC container CAD block download holds one 1000 l composite IBC, a container in a steel cage on a pallet, drawn in plan and front elevation in millimetres in the DWG and DXF. The overall size is 1200 x 1000 x 1160 mm including the pallet.

IBC container dimensions in the DWG

The size comes from the specification sheet of a common composite IBC: 1200 mm long, 1000 mm wide and 1160 mm high with the pallet, for 1000 l nominal and 1060 l brimful. Some suppliers list a slightly different height, so check the sheet of the IBC you use if the clearance under a rack beam or a mezzanine is tight. The footprint is the same as a 1200 x 1000 mm pallet, which makes the block easy to place on the same grid as pallet racking.

IBC tote drawing in plan and front view

The plan is the 1000 x 1200 mm footprint seen from above, with the filler cap on top. The front view is the 1000 mm side, which shows the DN50 outlet valve sitting in its recess at the bottom. The DN150 filler cap sits on top of the container. The cage is drawn with tubes, and their spacing in the drawing is representative, because it changes between products and the sheet does not set it.

The pallet allows four-way fork entry with an opening height of at least 90 mm, according to the same sheet. The pallet height in the drawing is representative. Outlines are on layer M-TANK, the valve and the cap on M-TANK-DETL, and hidden lines on A-HIDN.

Using the IBC block in a warehouse or dosing area

Turn the block so the outlet valve faces the aisle or the dosing point, where the operator can reach it. Leave space on the fork entry side for the truck that will move the container. In a chemical store or a bunded area, copy the block along the grid to see how many containers fit before you size the bund.

When the IBC feeds a process, it appears as a vessel on the flow diagram, and the P&ID symbols library has the outline for it. For a larger fixed volume, see the storage tank CAD block, which comes in 10 m3 and 50 m3.
