Package included 3 in fill, 1.5 in bowser, 2 in product delivery, 2 in drain, vapor-recovery connections and breather/emergency vent arrangements.

03.4

Fueling Equipment

Integrated dispenser, submersible turbine pump, ATG console/probe, overfill protection, interstitial leak sensing and associated fueling interfaces.

03.5

Safety Systems

Explosion-proof control panel/lighting, static earthing, emergency ventilation, interstitial and primary emergency venting, spill/drainage provisions and fire-safety equipment.

03.6

Standards / References

The drawing package references UL 142 and UL 2085 for tank design/build/test/certification, with ASME B16.5 Class 150 flanges and other project-specific inspection/welding requirements.

How the unit works

A 40 FT dual-compartment mobile fueling unit: bulk filling from a road tanker, double-wall storage with level and leak monitoring, and dispensing through a submersible turbine pump and dispenser.

The animation follows the fuel through the systems described above: fill point, overfill protection and vapour recovery, ATG and interstitial leak sensing, the 2 in product line to the dispenser, breather and emergency venting, and the safety systems around them.

Engineering Takeaway

This job went well past CAD. I put together a mobile fuel storage and dispensing system, coordinated several project functions, and held design responsibility from tender to field acceptance.
