LPG Vessels

We have completely tailored LPG semi-trailer to the needs and requirements of filling station supply. The use of weight-optimised materials and fittings allow us to reduce the empty weight noticeably.

Because of its flammable nature, the safety becomes more important for LPG. The cylindrical shape, like in other pressure vessels provides a safety to store and transport liquids kept under pressure. The accessories used at LPG semi-trailer are selected with care to provide a safe, long-lasting and user-friendly usage while considering air and environment protection.

As LPG has a lighter density compare to many other liquid gases, the capacity of LPG semi-trailer and rigid tank capacities are comperatively higher. The lighter body weight adds value to this advantage. Therefore, LPG has lower unit transportation costs compare to other liquefied  gases.

The design pressure used for LPG Semi-Trailers and rigid tankers *7,5Bar and the design temperature is between **0oC and **0oC.

The LPG semi-trailer and rigid tankers can be equipped with emergency discharge valves, manometers, temperature indicators; diesel, electrical or ex-proof hydromotor pumping system, liquid and phase level indicators.

Karbonsan LPG semi-trailers are built over running train with many unloading equipment options. The instruments cabinet is installed at an ergonomic working height for maximum user comfort and may also be designed with a flap. In addition to the installation of the fully electronically controlled measuring systems by leading manufacturers, we also offer the explosion- and moisture-protected installation of hose reels, additive systems, and printers in the instruments cabinet. A cornucopia of advantages designed to make a big difference in daily use.

Our relationship with our customers doesnt end with completion of your order.  We also offer complete transport/trailer maintenance and repair services, including ASME equipment alterations and repairs, inspections, calibrations, hose inspections, hydrostatic testing, pump servicing, sandblasting and painting, and more—to maintain your transport fleet to the highest standards.

Karbonsan manufactures LPG storage tanks are according to ADR, TPED, EN ****2, EN ****3, ASME or with other local regulatory requirements on request.

Karbonsan manufactures the lightest LPG semi-trailers to provide the most favorable transportation cost without comprimising the robustness. All components of the LPG semi-trailers are configured for harsh road conditions like all other Karbonsan transportable vehicles


LPG Tank Container
 

As well as ISO Tanks for bulk liquids, Karbonsan can provide custom-built tanks for transportation of liquefied gases such as propane, buthane and refrigerant gases.
 

Karbonsan specialises in providing transport solutions to difficult logistical problems. Karbonsan offers gas tank containers optimized for the LPG transportion. The tank containers for the transport of Liquefied Petroleum Gases are built within *0, *0 and *0 feet structure for sea, train and road transport with wide range of designs and capacities. Swap tank frame and *0ft beam-type frame are available on request.

As well as ISO-Tanks for bulk liquids, Karbonsan supplies custom-built tanks for the transport of liquefied gases such as propane and butane (LPG), R*2 refrigerant gases etc.

The LPG tank containers are available in a range of capacities and pressures. They can be tailored to meet the specific needs of individual customers. Mostly *0 or *0 and frame type tank containers are preferred. Although higher capacities are available on request, the capacity generally ranges between ***0 litres and ****0 litres.

The tank containers can be built in conformity with a range of approvals as required like ASME U Stamp and EN****9 according to IMO/UN, RID, ADR, US DOT CFR*9, UIC; TIR, CSC, Transport Canada, SELO, TPED specifications. The tanks can be put in service upon acceptance of tank by authorized inspection authority.

Please consult us for a rapid, practical answer to your gas transportation challenges. Our installations and knowledge enable us to present our customers with quality-made, robust products and innovative solutions.

LPG Bobtail Tankers
 

Liquefied petroleum gas (commonly called LPG or LP-gas) is a mixture of several hydrocarbon gases. Propane and butane, used separately or in mixtures, are the principal LP-gases. They are either extracted from natural gas or produced as a result of processing crude oil at refineries.
 

The bobtail tankers are trucks used for local delivery to fill end-use tanks. These tanks are mounted on rigid chassis. They generally provide a metered delivery and have tanks of 5,**0 to *4,**0 liters. are made of various capacities like 5m3 , *0m3, *7m3 , *0m3 , *4m3 .

The bobtail tankers are also provided with all safety features like safety relief valves, excess flow valves, pressure gauges, temperature gauges, isolation valves, internal valves, Rochester gauge, rotogauge, fixed level gauges. The tanks are also provided with unloading pumps of PTO driven type which take power form the truck engine for easy and safe transfer of LPG from the tanker.

The vessels for LPG bobtail tankers, choice of rear delivery or side-fitted are made of lightweight high-tensile steel with baffles and mounted on heavy-duty welded frame.

The experience from various markets contribute to the bobtail tanker product line development of Karbonsan. The LPG rigid road tankers (bobtails) for LPG bulk distribution are manufactured in different capacities and various equipment configurations with many unloading equipment options.

Karbonsan offers custom-made models which are designed and manufactured combining the different equipment alternatives, particular technical specifications. As LPG has a lighter density compare to many other liquid gases, the capacity of LPG semi-trailer and rigid tank capacities are comperatively higher. The lighter body weight adds value to this advantage. Therefore, LPG has lower unit transportation costs compare to other liquefied  gases.

The LPG rigid tankers can be equipped with emergency discharge valves, manometers, temperature indicators; diesel, electrical or ex-proof hydromotor pumping system, liquid and phase level indicators.

The pressure vessels are designed and constructed as per ADR, TPED, EN ****2, EN ****3, ASME Code and also comply with the applicable local road regislation.
