Oil-field tankers AСN are designed for transportation of raw petroleum, petroleum-containing fluids, salting and mud liquids.
NPO “Vektor” designs and manufactures tankers according to the specific needs of customers: on request we can provide further equipment of ACN for flammable liquids transportation.
Oil reservoirs are calibrated. All tankers are certified.
Oil-field tankers AСN may be performed for all climate zones.
Attention! While driving the tanker should be completely empty or full, since the movement of partially filled tanker can lead to overturning.
Tanker component parts:
- cistern (suitcase (rus. “chemodan”) cross-section, steel grade 09G2S),
- vacuum pump ( SCL-00A (СЦЛ-00А) or SVN-80 (СВН-80)),
- electrical equipment,
- fire-fighting equipment (extinguishers, sand boxes).
Oil-field tanker specifications
A specialized vehicle includes a tanker installed on “KamAZ” chassis.
Cistern – is a welded construction of two bottoms and drum shell.
Tanker’s shell is made of carbon sheet steel 09G2S with reinforcement plates inside, which additionally serve as baffles. There is a filler pipe on a tanker. On the top of a tanker there is a manhole hatch (⌀ 500 mm); at the bottom there is a sump and a flange for connection to the pump assembly. There are installed air bleeds to avoid air pockets when filling the tanker; they are made as tubes with the ends derived to the filler pipe.
There is a loading level indicator on a filler pipe made as a site glass.
On a manhole hatch there are installed valves for tankers’ venting: pressure valve and safety-relief valve.
An operating platform with a non-slip perforated flooring is available on the tanker. A ladder is also pre- installed for comfortable lifting.
The tanker is installed on a frame mounted support which combines with chassis. The supports are attached to a metal cradle structure which is fixed on a mainframe with U-bolts. Under the supports in cradles there are metal ribs which protect from crushing. Under a frame support there are ribbon springs.
Electrical wiring is layed through metal hoses, all connections are encapsulated, equipment is performed in explosion-proof configuration.
The tanker is provided with a warning sign “Flammable”. On a back side there is a ground circuit. 200 mm of it must contact the road surface.
