Sale of tanks, the company's sale. Classification

What is the purpose of the tank? Tank is required for the transport of liquid, gaseous, powder and solidified substances. Tanks differ, first of all, on the kind of transported cargo, the design of the frame, on the number of axles and, of course, an important role in the classification of tanks plays calibration type. Sale of tanks of various types is carried out by specialized companies. So, specialization of one or another company is determined by the type of products manufactured. Depending on the kind of transported cargo businesses sell tanks of two types:
tank - General purpose, in other words, universal. Such tanks are used for transportation of oil products of wide nomenclature;
- specialized. Sale of tanks of this type is intended for enterprises that require specific types of cargo.  
tank special purpose are also divided into two groups: for transportation of light oil products (kerosene, gasoline or naphtha and so on) and for the transport of viscous (oil, mineral oil, and sop.).

This separation of companies pinpointed as the sale of tanks, first of all, reduces complexity, and also the duration of the various cleaning tasks of the internal surfaces of boilers, before you pour cargo, and also allows for much better use of the capacity in transportation of cargo with the same or approximately similar density. However, this separation increases the empty run of tanks and increases simple at accumulation of the marshalling yard empty tanks, in addition to significantly complicated adjustment parks, which contain cars.

In addition, companies engaged in the sale of tanks, can be divided into certain types according to the following criteria. Tank share of the cargo: high viscosity, foods, acid, liquefied gases, powdered and many others. Any tank (General purpose) has a top loading, as well as for bottom unloading of cargo. For this boilers such tanks are equipped with special hatches, and also universal devices for unloading. Most tanks for special purposes (transportation of acids, liquefied gas, etc) have the top unloading and loading cargo.

Sale of tanks implies the following division: frame and frameless tank. In addition tanks divided by the number of axes of the four axes, six and eight. Currently, the plants produced only four-axle and axle tank, 6 - axis same discontinued since 1986. Before buying a particular model, in other words, to conclude the deal of purchase and sale of tanks, check all the technical characteristics of the model. Technical requirements for this type of vehicles are defined by the state standard.

The mass of liquid gases which are transported in tanks, is now weighing not, as is done in many cars, and through the so-called замерно - calibration method. The company, scope of which is sale of tanks often provide buyers with this method. This method of measuring the mass consists in the following. Experts measure the height of the filling of the boiler, and then using the spiral tables and calibration is considered a weight of transported cargo. In boilers always refer to its capacity, it depends on the level of its loading, and also on the density of the transported fluid.
Sale of tanks calibration type are in great demand. Type of such tanks is indicated by the figures that were cut from a steel sheet (it must be welded to the boiler on each side). Such operations weighing cargo minimize the time and accelerate the turnover of the tank. In addition, significantly reduced the cost of transportation. Almost all tanks unified frame, running parts and couplers and connectors. Boilers tanks (General purpose) have a special colouring in a light yellow colour and the inscription «Oil» or «Gasoline».
