10,000Liters Sinotruk HOWO Oil Tank Truck

With extensive knowledge in fuel tank truck design and production, we take into account the mining project’s local operating conditions. Our trucks feature a SINOTRUK HOWO 4×2 drive chassis with a robust engine boasting high horsepower, a durable top fuel tank, and a powerful fuel pump for dependable performance.

Fuel Tank Assembly

The tank has an elliptical cross-section.

A manhole is located on the top of the tank, which allows for maintenance and refilling. It is sealed with a rubber seal ring and bolted joint.

A breath valve is installed on the manhole cover to adjust the internal pressure and maintain balance with external air pressure. This helps reduce fuel transpiration and prevent distortion due to increased pressure.

Work situation of breath valve

A breather valve was installed at the front of the tank to ensure that the tank pressure is balanced with the air pressure. As the fuel heats up, it expands and the pressure increases. When the pressure reaches 8 Kpa, the upper valve opens (it remains closed if the pressure is below 6 kpa). As the fuel cools and contracts, the pressure decreases, and the lower valve opens.

Transmission system

The power is transferred from the truck transmission to the fuel pump through the PTO and transmission shaft, enabling it to operate at 960 r/min. Refer to the manual for more details.

Production Process

A tanker truck is produced with Automatic machines which are imported from USA, Germany, and UK.
