4-Compartment Tanker Pneumatic Control Block, 6 mm Air Lines

Description

Overview

This 4-compartment pneumatic control block operates the foot valves on a four-compartment road tanker using compressed air. It is the smaller sibling of the 6-compartment block, with the same aluminium body style, 6 mm push-in air line fittings and 0.3 to 0.6 MPa working pressure (3 to 6 bar). The stated temperature range is -20 to +50 C. The supplier lists the same weight as the larger block, so we show a slightly lower figure for this one and treat it as approximate. Match the block to the number of compartments on your tanker, not the tanker’s capacity.

Key features

• Four compartment controls in one aluminium block
• 6 mm push-in air line fittings
• Working pressure 0.3 to 0.6 MPa (3 to 6 bar)
• Operating temperature -20 to +50 C
• Compact at 270 x 140 x 70 mm, net weight about 2.5 kg

Where it works

Four-compartment tankers are common on mid-size fuel distribution runs: depot to forecourt in Gauteng and KZN, or farm and mine deliveries out of Polokwane into Limpopo and Mpumalanga. The block sits in the air circuit and gives the operator independent control over each compartment. For six-compartment rigs use the 6-compartment control block. You may also need a API male coupler without handle for the loading side. Everything else is under fuel station accessories.
