Top Loading Arm with Single-arm

Description

The single-arm top loading arm is specifically designed for open-top loading and unloading operations on road tankers and railcars.

By enabling the transfer of bulk liquids through the tanker’s top manhole, it offers a versatile, user-friendly, and dependable solution

for liquid handling applications in the chemical, petroleum, and industrial sectors.

Specifications

Nominal diameter: DN40～DN250
Design pressure: -0.06MPa～2.5MPa
Design temperature: -40℃～+230℃
Pipeline material: aluminum/carbon steel/stainless steel/PTFE lined
Drop pipe material: aluminum alloy or other materials

Features

· Flexible swivel design:
The piping assembly incorporates four swivel joints, providing excellent flexibility and allowing the loading arm to reach tankers

positioned anywhere within the designated operating envelope.

· Telescopic drop pipe option:
For applications involving high-profile tankers, a telescopic drop pipe is recommended to enable bottom-up filling, reducing turbulence

and improving loading efficiency.

· Reduced splash and surge effect:
A drop pipe deflector or a 45° angled pipe outlet can be installed to minimize liquid splashing and surging, helping to protect the tanker

structure and ensure smoother filling operations.

· Secure working position locking:
An outboard arm locking mechanism is provided to securely hold the loading arm in the operating position during loading operations.

· Safe parking position locking:
An inboard arm locking mechanism keeps the loading arm safely secured in the parking position when not in use.

· Smooth and balanced operation:
The spring-cylinder counterbalance system compensates for the weight of the outboard arm and front-end components, enabling effortless and

stable vertical movement.

· Efficient line drainage:
A vacuum breaker is integrated to facilitate rapid drainage of the piping system and prevent liquid retention after operation.

· Enhanced static protection:
An anti-static grounding device is incorporated to effectively dissipate static charges and stray currents generated by fluid flow during loading and

unloading operations, improving operational safety.

Optional Accessories

· Static grounding alarm:
Provides visual and audible alerts if the tanker is not properly grounded, preventing static buildup.

· Tank level alarm:
Activates an alarm or signal output when the liquid level exceeds the preset limit.

· Submersible pump:
Used for pumping liquids out of the tanker.

· Customized configurations:
Additional options are available upon request.
