Where can I take my tanker to get lime off the outside?
Before discharging, the lime tanker vehicle should be parked on a flat unloading site, Cement (lime) shall not be loaded or unloaded in the open on rainy days. Regular inspection and confirm that the inlet cover is tightly closed, and do not allow water or humid air to enter the tank.
How to pump fly ash from a tanker?
Do not load or unload cement (fly ash) in the open on rainy days. Regular check and confirm that the inlet cover is tightly closed, and do not allow water or humid air to enter the tank. Before fly ash tanker unloading, the tanker vehicle should be parked on a flat unloading site, the discharge pipe should be installed. What’s more, the discharge valve, butterfly valve and the pressure relief ball valve should be closed, the secondary air pipe should be opened, and the compressed air also should be connected to ensure that the air compressor is under no load Case.
