We collaborated closely with our machinery manufacturer to anticipate every scenario our tankers might encounter, ensuring the software and hydraulic control mechanisms could respond perfectly in each situation, as well as the vehicle chassis itself being suited specifically to the environments it’s expected to work in.

Working with our supplier, our engineers adapted flow and pressure controls for water, fine-tuning the on-board plumbing for precise pressure and flowrate monitoring, and integrating a pumping system that uses CANbus technology. With variable-speed hygienic stainless steel pumps and pipe work, our tankers are capable of delivering up to 9 bar pressure, and flow rates of up to 850lpm. This means our rigid tankers can discharge in less than 30 minutes and our articulated tankers in less than 45 minutes.

When performing a Network Injection (or Mains Infusion depending on your parlance), the Tanker continuously monitors the pressure in the network, and self-adjusts the onboard pumping system to maintain the desired pressure. When pressure changes in the network are seen by the sensors, the pump can react in as little as 2.5 seconds to ensure autonomous safety of the operation.
