General dimensions for a 44 ton tanker
| Nominal capacity | 58 m³ |
| Approximate tanker empty weight | 12,5 tons |
| Total loading capacity (7,5 ton tractor head) | 24 tons |
| With LNG 3 bar at 95% | 23 ton |
| With LNG 0 bar at 89% | 21 ton |
LNG equipment
- Discharge pump, pressure elevator, volumetric counter
- Cabinet with door
- Mechanical level indicator by differential pressure
- Internal bottom valves with non-return feature included
- Cryogenic stopvalves
- Pressure relief valves in pipes, manual and automatic, connected to vent pipe
- P&ID adapted to client needs
Safety / emergency systems
- 6 emergency pushbuttons distributed in various places; when manually actuated they close the bottom valves and the pump enters stop mode
- Closed cabinet detector: bottom valves stay closed and the pump enters stop mode
- Parking brake: bottom valves can only be opened when this brake is activated
- Anti-start system: if the driver starts driving with the cabinet open, the system acts on the brakes; it does not act above 5 km/h
- Safety valves against LNG overpressure, with manifold
