Bottom Loading Arms

Bottom loading offers benefits which cannot be achieved with top loading designs. Bottom loading takesplace on the ground, making it inherently safer for the operator. It also allows for simultaneous loading ofseveral tank compartments, increasing speed and efficiency of loading. Bottom loading is easilyadaptable to vapour recovery systems.

E2033 Bottom Transfer Loader

Bottom transfer loaders provide an extended reach that makes them ideal for applications where a vehiclecannot be accurately spotted.

Easy to adjust, super smooth action spring cylinder balance and heavy duty capacity swivel joints enablethese arms to reach further without the need for additional support. The spring cylinder balance has up to! deg of vertical movement for easy to handle alignment and out of the way parking.

The addvantages are that the loading arm can be operated like a single arm, i. e. it is highlymaneuverable. )lso, both the product and vapor recovery lines are free from pockets.

By loading with the vapor return line, the product vapor will be recovered through the loading arm. Thisimproves the profitability of the terminal because vaporiCed product can be recovered and vapor does notpollute the environment.

By loading with a sealed manhole, a high level of protection is achieved for both the operator and theenvironment.

The E$@$ is technically the best solution for the process of loading with vapor return. The flow path isfree from traps which would retain the condensed vapors and emit fumes when the arm is not in use. Thedesign allows heating of the product and vapor line.

The design of the vapor line with swivel joints provides easy handling( a further advantage against the useof hoses.
