Descriptions of 5.5CBM LPG Bobtail Tank Truck

1. Dongfeng 4X2 5.5m³ 5500L LPG refueling tanker, designed to provide a reliable and efficient solution for refueling liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinders. It is suitable for various applications, including filling LPG cylinders.

2.The truck uses robust Q345R carbon steel material, ensuring a durable structure capable of withstanding frequent use. Its body dimensions (5670x2300x2633mm) and tank dimensions (1600×10×3070) provide ample space for storage and transportation.

3. Equipped with a single liquid outlet pipeline to simplify piping layout, reduce leakage risks, and enforce "dedicated tank" use—mixing different liquids is strictly prohibited.

4. Sealing and pressure control are achieved through an emergency shut-off valve, safety valve, and liquid level monitoring, combined with anti-static and fire suppression devices to prevent leaks and fires.

5. Relies on a safety relief valve and check valve to stabilize pressure, anti-vibration hoses to reduce pipeline impact, and a wheeled actuator to ensure emergency gas shut-off.
