Sinotruk HOWO 4X2 7MT 15,000 liters LPG Bobtail Truck

Products Description

The LPG Bobtail Truck is also called LPG tanker truck/ Propane bobtail/ Heavy-duty gas delivery solution/ Autogas bowser/ LPG skid unit/LPG dispenser truck, etc. It is a specialized commercial vehicle designed for safe and efficient transportation and on-site refueling of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). With a 15-cubic-meter storage capacity and 7-ton payload capacity, it integrates a high-pressure LPG tank, pumping system, and metered dispensing equipment into a single mobile unit, making it ideal for bulk LPG logistics and direct-to-consumer delivery.

Primary Applications

Industrial Zones: Supply LPG to factories, welding shops, or forklift fleets.
Agricultural Support: Fuel crop dryers, irrigation pumps, and greenhouse heating systems.
Remote Communities: Act as a mobile refueling station for off-grid households.
Emergency Response: Rapid deployment during pipeline outages or natural disasters.

Benefits and Features:

Dual-Function Design

Combines transportation and on-demand refueling capabilities in one vehicle.

All-Terrain Adaptability: Reinforced chassis and ABS braking for stable operation in rural/urban areas.
Robust Safety Systems

Equipped with emergency shutoff valves, pressure relief devices, and leak detection sensors compliant with NFPA 58/ASME standards.

Fast-Fill Technology: High-flow dispensers with precision meters and auto-cutoff nozzles.
Cost Efficiency

Reduces logistics expenses by eliminating intermediate transfers.

Operational Flexibility: Operates as a "gas station on wheels" without fixed infrastructure.
Regulatory Compliance

Meets DOT/TPED certifications for cross-border operations.

Scalability: Modular design allows customization for varying tank sizes (10-20 m³).

Referece Pictures

Bulk Transport: Safely moves LPG from terminals to storage facilities or retail stations.

Direct-to-Customer Delivery: Enables doorstep refueling for residential/commercial tanks.

Fleet Management: Services LPG-powered vehicles (e.g., taxis, buses) at depots.

Inventory Control: Real-time tank level monitoring prevents stockouts.

Valve Systems:

Emergency Shutoff Valve (ESV): Automatically triggers on leak detection.

Check Valves: Prevent backflow during multi-truck refueling operations.

Float-Type Level Gauges: Provide real-time LPG volume tracking with ±2% accuracy, resistant to sloshing effects.

Vapor/Liquid Phase System:

Liquid Withdrawal Valve: Ensures stable flow during high-demand dispensin.

Vapor Return Line: Recovers excess gas to maintain tank pressure equilibrium.

Quick-Connect Couplings: Enable 90-second nozzle attachment/detachment, minimizing downtime.
Modular Skid Design: Allows seamless transfer between chassis types (e.g., Isuzu, Volvo) for fleet scalability.
Anti-Corrosion Coating: Tank interiors use epoxy-phenolic linings to withstand H₂S contaminants in low-grade LPG.

Mobile Fueling Stations: Deployable in disaster zones or remote areas lacking fixed infrastructure.
Fleet Management Integration: IoT-enabled telematics systems track fuel consumption, route efficiency, and maintenance schedules.
Hybrid Energy Solutions: Compatible with LPG-CNG dual-fuel systems for fleets transitioning to greener alternatives.

Core Advantages:

Economic Efficiency: Reduces fuel costs by 20-30% compared to diesel counterparts, with annual savings exceeding for high-mileage fleets.
Environmental Compliance: Emits 30% fewer CO₂ emissions and near-zero particulate matter, aligning with Euro Ⅲ .
Dual-Phase Operation: Supports liquid-phase dispensing for high-volume refueling and vapor-phase recovery to minimize gas loss during transfers.
Market Flexibility: Adaptable to autogas (LPG) and bio-LPG blends, future-proofing investments amid energy transitions.
