Top Loading Chemical Arms are the method by which most (70%) of the chemical industry load liquids. The majority of chemicals loaded globally are via the top of the tanker.
The reasons are pretty simple. The tankers are effectively barrels on wheels. Hauliers must remain competitive, and so the majority of tanker trucks are termed General Purpose. They transport different liquids on different days (subject to stringent cleaning certification). So, to ensure they meet most customers’ needs, they remain simple methods of transport. They have a hole in the top to fill and a valve outlet at the bottom to drain. In almost all cases, the tanker has no built-in high-level detection or vapour return facilities. The advantage of top loading is that all the sophistication required can be fitted to the loading arm. Carbis Loadtec has a high level of expertise in chemical loading and has examples of Top Loading Chemical Arms that solve almost all bulk liquid problems.
