Carbis Loadtec bottom loading arms

UK safe access and fluid transfer company Carbis Loadtec Group has successfully commissioned six chemical bottom loading stations for a UK client, as part of a site wide policy to remove hoses from tanker operations.

The project will also make the working environment safer and ergonomic. The arms are a mixture of stainless and carbon steel, designed to meet the client’s exacting process requirements for loading, venting and purging.  They are all equipped with emergency breakaway couplings on both the liquid and vapour phases.  The purging is carried out remotely.

The arms are interlocked to prevent use until barriers are lowered, constraining the tanker movement.
