Seasonal Impacts on Mobile Diesel Tanks

Understanding how different weather conditions affect your mobile diesel tank operation and maintenance

1. Summer High Temperatures

High temperatures in summer have a significant impact on the use of mobile diesel tanks:

  • Accelerate diesel volatilization, increasing internal tank pressure
  • Put additional pressure on sealing components
  • Cause light components in diesel to evaporate, affecting fuel quality
  • Long-term storage can clog the fuel supply system

Solution: Store tanks in cool, shady places away from direct sunlight.

2. Winter Low Temperatures

Low temperatures in winter pose special challenges:

  • Reduce diesel fluidity, especially in cold regions
  • Diesel is prone to waxing, clogging tank outlets and lines
  • Harden rubber seals, reducing sealing performance
  • Increase the risk of leaks

Solution: Choose low-temperature diesel models and insulate tanks when necessary.

3. Rainy Season Humidity

The humid environment of the rainy season can also affect its use:

  • Rainwater can seep into tank gaps, mixing with fuel
  • Affect combustion efficiency and damage engines
  • Accelerate rust on metal parts

Solution: Ensure tight seals and regularly inspect for rust.

4. Spring Wind & Dust

Precautions needed in windy and dusty conditions:

  • Sand can adhere to surfaces and clog vents
  • Contaminate fuel through filler ports
  • Wear away surface coatings

Solution: Clean surfaces regularly and install dust covers.

5. Autumn Dry Weather

Although less impactful, autumn still warrants attention:

  • Increased static electricity accumulation risk
  • Potential safety hazards during refueling
  • Fuel evaporation rate remains stable

Solution: Ensure proper anti-static devices and grounding.
