Fuel Tanker Trailer

What is a fuel tanker trailer?

Fuel tank trailer is known as fuel truck trailer, fuel tanker. The fuel tank trailer comprises a tank body, power take-off, driveshaft, gear oil pump, pipe network system, and other components.

The pipe network system is composed of an oil pump, three-way four-position ball valve, two-way ball valve, filter, and pipeline.

 

Fuel tanker application:

Fuel tank trailer is generally used to transport gasoline, kerosene, diesel, vegetable oil, edible oil, heavy oil, coal tar, and non-petroleum products such as alcohol, aldehyde, benzene, ether, and other liquid substances.

The fuel tank trailer has a capacity of 30000-60000 liters, which is generally used for long-distance transportation, transporting liquid substances all over the world to realize the reasonable distribution and use of resources.

Fuel tanker truck parts

Axle & tire: BPW German brand air suspension and axle high-quality running system, less maintenance, and longer service life

Leg: The function of the legs is to support the semi-trailer parking when the tractor and truck semi trailer is disconnected. In order to adapt to the change of the height of the semi-trailer, the legs are equipped with a screw lifting mechanism, so that the connection and disconnection of the gasoline tanker trailer and the tractor can be carried out smoothly.

Design: Modular design, adopt NORD-LOCK secure bolts, ensure fastening stability. Easy to be installed and maintain in future

Tail: Withstand 10T level impact modular rear bumper, ultra-high safety performance protect tank damaged

Valves: ADR standard Valves, widely applicable for the major oil companies, high quality ensure the longer service life.

Cable and pipe: Cable and pipe routing and clamping system allows direct and improved ease of access during diagnostic testing and replacement

Fuel outlet valve: We have a special design for the fuel outlet valve, which can better guarantee that when we dismantle the joint, there will be no fuel leakage. The internal structure is more in line with fluid mechanics, and when there is a large flow of goods out, the internal pressure can be balanced.

Anti-spill sensor: When we load in liquid fuel, we can’t detect how much has been added every moment, at this time, we need to use the overflow prevention sensor, when it reaches the specified height, the alarm will sound.

Oil and gas recovery valve: When we load and unload, we will definitely use the oil and gas recovery valve, which can recover the excess volatile oil and gas, not only to reduce waste but also to ensure safety.

Safety valve: An important component of the manhole cover is the safety valve. The valve is used to automatically regulate the internal pressure of the tank to ensure the safety of the tank and also to reduce the volatilization of oil.

A bit of oil tank is having more than one compartment, there are breathing valves between them, the body of the breathing valve is made of nickel-cadmium stainless steel, the tank components are made of stainless steel to ensure that they will not rust.

Subsea valve: The subsea valve is usually installed at the bottom of the tank, usually, its role is in diesel tanker trailer after an accident, in order to prevent the transport of liquid fuel leakage, resulting in greater economic losses, once the accident, the subsea valve will automatically cut off the pipeline within 3 seconds to ensure the safety of the transported goods.

Manhole cover: The manhole cover is specially designed, it has many functions, which can guarantee the safety of the gasoline tanker trailers to a certain extent.

Packaging and shipping

Generally, tanker truck trailers can reach customers after 7-25 days of transportation; we will do an excellent job to protect the tanker truck trailer from the seawater before transport.

 

How do I choose fuel tanker trailers?

1. Material to be transported: we generally use fuel tank trailers to haul gasoline, oil, petrol, or other goods. We need first to determine whether the fuel tanker can do our job. You can tell us the goods you need to transport. We will provide you with professional advice.

Tank thickness has a huge impact on fuel tanker trailers, we need to use 5mm or 6mm high strength steel, especially when transporting large amounts of diesel / gasoline over long distances, the thickness of the tank is very important.

2. Local laws and regulations: whether the local country has a weight limit or a weight limit, we can consider using some fuel tanker with smaller tonnage.

3. Roads: How are the streets in your country? Many inexperienced friends may not know that if the country road conditions are not very good, we need to adjust some configurations to ensure that the fuel tanker trailer can work better. In this regard, PANDA Mech does a good job and can always provide some professional advice.

4. Duration of use: Some customers tell us during the communication that the work may only last for a short period, then we will relatively recommend the use of some more cost-effective configuration, if some need to be used for a long time, we will relatively recommend some better quality configuration, to ensure that the pitch transport trailer service life is longer.

5. There are two kinds of common gasoline tanker trailer materials, one is carbon steel and the other is aluminum.

Relatively speaking, aluminum is lighter in weight and is generally used in countries with limited weight and can transport more liquids at the same time, but at the same time, the price of aluminum is higher than that of carbon steel.

Carbon steel is relatively heavier and less expensive, which is suitable for use in some countries without weight limits and some companies with limited budgets.

What are the benefits of using air suspension?

Now there are more and more customers choose air suspension, this is because everyone’s requirements for the safety and stability of gasoline tanker trailer are getting higher and higher, which leads to the increasing popularity of air suspension.

If you change items to be transported, clean them before each product change.

 

Tire Inspection

Petrol tank trailers need to be low rolling resistance tires and a tire pressure system. All tires should be fitted with a tire pressure monitoring system or an automatic tire inflation system to ensure they are ready to withstand all the weight of the load and all the challenges of the road. You must also maintain your tires to avoid rollovers. If your tires don’t have enough tread, they won’t be able to maintain proper traction on the road, so pay attention to the impression as well.

All of these should be tightly secured in place to maintain the vehicle’s integrity. If they are loose, they should be repaired or replaced as soon as possible.

 

Valve Inspection

You have hydraulic valves, safety valves, vacuum valves, and pressure valves in your tanker trailer, they are iman essential for the tanker semi-trailer, and sometimes when you are in very cold temperatures, these valves tend to freeze and then fail. To ensure this doesn’t happen, each valve should be properly lubricated.
