Transcube Tanks Fuel Filling Methods
Renowned for their versatility in fuel storage and transportation, Transcube tanks support several efficient fuel-filling methods.
Direct Hose Connection
The simplest and most common way is through direct hose connection. A fuel-grade hose is attached to the tank's inlet port.
The hose diameter is selected based on the transfer volume and speed requirements; a larger diameter allows for faster transfer for large-capacity tanks.
Pump-Assisted Transfer
When dealing with large-volume fuel transfer or overcoming elevation differences, pump-assisted transfer is preferred. An external fuel pump, either electric or diesel-powered, is installed in-line with the fuel transfer hose.
The pump can be adjusted to control the flow rate precisely, ensuring a smooth transfer process. Some pumps also feature pressure-regulating mechanisms to prevent over-pressurization, safeguarding the tank and the transfer system.
Gravity-Fed Filling
Gravity-fed filling can be used when the fuel source is at a higher elevation than the Transcube tank. This cost-effective method doesn't require additional pumping equipment.
However, this method's efficiency depends on the height difference and fuel viscosity. For less viscous fuels like gasoline, it works well over short distances, while heavier fuels like diesel may need a greater height difference.
Using a Fuel Dispensing Nozzle
Similar to gas station nozzles, fuel dispensing nozzles can be used to fill Transcube tanks, especially smaller-capacity ones. This method offers better control over the fuel flow, reducing the risk of over-filling.
Important: Before any filling operation, it's crucial to follow safety procedures, including proper grounding to prevent static electricity and checking for leaks in the connection points.
