Fuel tank semi-trailers

The fuel tank is a type of a tank designed for safe transportation of combustibles and lubricants (motor and gear oils, gasoline, diesel fuel, kerosene, etc.) from processing plants and storage facilities to gas stations and other enterprises which are end users.

In the course of transportation of flammable and explosive substances (such as light oils) increased security becomes of utmost importance, so special vehicles are used to solve such problems. They are usually a thick-walled metal tank with round or elliptical cross-section (models with rectangular, trapezoid or variable cross-section are used less often) installed on two- or three-axle chassis of a cargo trailer. The tank may consist of a single section or several ones and have the volume up to 50 m3.

At the top part, there are filling hatch with breather valves, which eliminate the possibility of external addition getting into the working volume of the tank. Most modern fuel tanks are equipped with special pumps which can carry out both draining and filling the reservoir with the substances. Moreover, the equipment of such tanks includes a system of sensors providing continuous monitoring of temperature, pressure and volume of the substance in the tank.
