The cantilever rack is rotatable for loading vegetable oil

Appointment

The rotary cantilever rack is used to load vegetable oil from storage tanks into vehicle tanks.

Characteristic

The cantilever swivel rack is a specialized equipment that provides convenient and safe liquid transfer. This design allows you to direct the oil flow in the right direction and, if necessary, change the loading direction.

Main components

• The console has its own support post with a foundation plate.
• A rotary pipe is an articulated pipeline with a filling tip for the release of pumped vegetable oil.
• Rotary mechanism - provides a change in the direction of the filling hose. The angle of rotation may vary depending on the model (for example, from 180° to 360°).
• Drive type (manual or electric) - the console is rotated manually by pulling on a chain or the rotation is provided by a geared motor, control can be implemented from a remote control or using radio control.
• Filling tip - can be made for open or sealed filling. In the case of hermetically sealed filling, the tip can be shaped like a cone or a lid, depending on the type of tanks. The tip cone is usually removable.
• The connection system includes fittings, fittings or quick-release connections for connecting hoses or pipelines through which oil is pumped from the tank to the tank (oil tank).
• The construction material must be compatible with food liquids (vegetable oils). Stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant materials allowed for contact with food are used.

Execution

The rotary cantilever rack is available in two versions:

• The first (basic equipment) is made of AISI 304/316 stainless steel (the material has high corrosion resistance, strength, does not affect the quality of the product - it is compatible with food liquids, and is easy to sanitize).
• The second one (on request) is made of galvanized steel and polymer materials (used in assemblies that do not carry high loads (fittings, seals).

General appearance and dimensions

The optimal size of a cantilever rack for loading vegetable oil depends on several factors: the volume of storage tanks, the type of tanks to be serviced, performance requirements, available space on the site, and other operating conditions. Specific parameters should be determined at the design stage, taking into account technical specifications and regulatory requirements.

As an example, we can consider some existing models of oil distribution racks that can serve as a guideline.:

Overall dimensions (LxWxH): 4405 × 754 × 4665 mm.

The cantilever swivel rack optimizes the vegetable oil shipment process, ensuring speed, accuracy, safety and compliance with food standards. Its use reduces operating costs and increases the reliability of the pumping station.

The principle of operation

The principle of operation is based on a combination of mechanical design, control system and connection to a liquid source.

1. The console is fixed in the desired position using balancing mechanisms.
2. The operator activates the system (manually, using the control panel or through an automated system). The liquid begins to flow through the pipeline under pressure.
3. In manual mode, the operator independently regulates the flow of liquid. In automated systems, level sensors monitor the filling of the tank. When the set level is reached, the signal is sent to the control device, which closes the shut-off valve (valve, gate) and stops the liquid supply.
4. After filling the tank, the console is returned to its original position using a manual winch or via remote control.

Advantages

The cantilever swivel rack is an effective solution for pumping vegetable oil from storage tanks to tanker trucks, key advantages:

• Quick and convenient unloading - the rotary mechanism allows you to rotate the transfer console without having to move the tank or the rack itself.
• Reducing transport downtime - the operator quickly connects the hose to the tank hatch and starts pumping.
• Ergonomics and safety:

- The optimal oil distribution height reduces the risk of spills and makes it easier to connect the hose to the tank hatch.
- stable rack design with secure attachment to the foundation prevents tipping over during operation
- the structure is designed with a margin of safety - it can withstand the weight of hoses, oil pressure and dynamic loads.

• Reliability and durability.
• Process accuracy and control:

- optional equipment with level sensors and automatic valves to prevent overflow
- reduction of oil loss due to tightness and precision of dosing
- the possibility of installing flow meters
- if necessary, integration with the automated process control system for remote control and data capture.

• Versatility and flexibility of application:

- it can work with oils of different viscosity (sunflower, rapeseed, soybean, etc.) when selecting a pump and hose
- Suitable for different types of tanks (vertical/horizontal tanks, tanks).

• The service life is up to 30 years with proper maintenance.
• Warranty - 24 months
