Transporting gasoline and diesel requires rigorous safety, and the new fuel tanker from JunChi Heavy Industry meets ADR FL, EX/II, and ATEX directives. The JunChi Heavy Industry fuel tanker features a 36,000-liter elliptical tank made from 5mm-thick P355N steel, with internal baffles that reduce surge by 75%.

The compartmentalized design allows the JunChi Heavy Industry fuel tanker to carry three different fuel grades simultaneously, with separate discharge lines and vapor recovery couplings. All manhole covers are pressure-vacuum vented, preventing tank collapse during rapid discharge.

For explosion prevention, the JunChi Heavy Industry fuel tanker includes flame arrestors on all vents and a conductive floor strap that dissipates static buildup. The bottom loading system is API-compliant, reducing loading time to 20 minutes for a full tank.

During a 12-month trial by a major oil company, the JunChi Heavy Industry fuel tanker recorded zero leaks across 150,000 kilometers. The emergency shut-off system activates automatically if the tanker rolls beyond 6 degrees, stopping fuel flow within 0.3 seconds.

JunChi Heavy Industry offers an optional vapor recovery unit that captures 98% of hydrocarbon fumes during loading. The tanker’s aluminum outriggers protect the tank in case of a rollover. With a 10-year corrosion warranty, the JunChi Heavy Industry fuel tanker is approved for use in the EU, GCC, and ASEAN markets.
