ABSTRACT:
A bulk container is provided with a detachable discharge coupling mounted to the container at a discharge port in a sump of the container. The discharge port is large enough to allow an operator to reach into the container to grasp a flexible liner that has been inserted into the container. The liner is equipped with a discharge fitment, which attaches to the discharge coupling. The apparatus of the present invention allows an operator to insert a flexible liner into a bulk container, attach said liner to the discharge coupling, and attach the discharge coupling to the container, without entering the container. Since the discharge coupling is inserted into the discharge port of the container from outside the container, it fits easily into the confines of a sump in the container.
