PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Grounding System
- Purpose: Prevents static electricity buildup by safely grounding the receiving tank or vehicle.
- Operation: During top-loading, the system creates a secure path between the loading equipment and the earth ground, allowing static charges generated during filling to dissipate safely, reducing the risk of sparks.
- Monitoring: Advanced systems feature continuous ground monitoring, ensuring a valid connection before and throughout the loading process. If grounding is lost, loading is automatically interrupted to maintain safety.
Â
Overfill Protection System
- Purpose: Prevents overfilling and spills by stopping the filling process once the tank reaches a set capacity.
- Sensors: Utilizes high-level sensors or probes within the tank to monitor liquid levels. When the preset limit is approached, the system triggers an alert or halts the flow.
- Automatic Shutoff: Some configurations automatically activate a shutoff valve or stop the pump when the maximum level is reached, ensuring immediate response to overfill conditions.
Â
Interlock Mechanism
- Purpose: Prevents loading unless proper grounding is confirmed.
- Process: The system integrates grounding verification with the loading controls, requiring confirmation of a secure ground before enabling pumps or opening valves. This eliminates the risk of ungrounded loading and enhances safety against static-related hazards.
