Product Information

Full details

The Scan Drip Pan is an essential utility tool designed for mechanics, DIY enthusiasts, and homeowners looking to manage fluid leaks and spills effectively. It offers a generous 16-litre capacity in a compact, durable frame, making it ideal for automotive maintenance or protecting flooring from equipment leaks.

FAQs

What is the maximum capacity of the Scan Drip Pan?

The pan has a total capacity of 16 litres.

Is this pan resistant to chemicals?

It is made of tough, impact-resistant plastic designed for automotive fluids like oil and coolant; however, avoid contact with harsh industrial solvents or acids.

Can I leave this pan outside?

While durable, it is recommended to store it indoors or under cover to protect the plastic from prolonged UV exposure and extreme weathering.

How do I dispose of the oil collected?

Always pour the contents into a designated waste oil container and take it to your local council recycling or hazardous waste collection facility.

What are the dimensions of the pan?

The pan measures 53cm in length, 40cm in width, and 9.5cm in depth.

Troubleshooting

Fluid splashing out during use

Reduce the rate of discharge or tilt the pan slightly toward the spout side to control the flow velocity.

Difficulty pouring fluids

Ensure the container receiving the fluid is placed lower than the spout to allow gravity to assist in a smooth, continuous flow.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High volume capacity for large fluid volumes
  • Durable, impact-resistant plastic construction
  • Convenient spout reduces spilling during disposal
  • Lightweight yet rigid design

Cons

  • Rigid design requires level ground for stability
  • Plastic material may crack under extreme sub-zero temperatures
  • No lid for transport, requires manual care when full

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the Scan Drip Pan, simply place it on a flat, level surface under the area where you anticipate a leak. If using for automotive work, ensure the vehicle is secured on jack stands before placing the pan. For care, wipe down the interior with an oil-absorbent cloth after every use to maintain the plastic integrity and prevent slips. To clean, rinse with mild dish soap and warm water; avoid using harsh chemical solvents that could degrade the plastic structure. Store in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent long-term UV-induced brittleness.
