Especially since many of them can work as gas stations, refueling equipment. Thus, the feature of refueling in the “field” makes it possible to obtain a certain economic effect in the presence of a large number of large-sized equipment. And a gas station in the city can provide energy independence by delivering fuel to the generator, allowing maneuvering through narrow streets with heavy traffic.

A small petrol truck (they are also called a fuel tank) is a tank installed on the chassis of a truck. To carry out loading and unloading, additional equipment is placed in the metered.

With small volumes, tanks are made solid, with large volumes they often consist of separate sections. In containers from 5 cubic meters. and higher inside, transverse and/or longitudinal breakwaters (partitions) are arranged in order to prevent water hammer when the car is moving. The upper part of the fuel truck is equipped with a service platform with folding handrails, which guarantees that it will fit within the dimensions.

The pitch is made of a perforated sheet with an anti-slip effect, which allows you to move safely on it during rain and snowfall. There is also an ecological box in the upper part.
