Brief Introduction
Product Description
The tank is designed with independent multi-compartment structure, which can store and transport different types of oil separately without mixing. It is equipped with standard oil unloading valve, breathing valve, anti-static device, oil filter, fuel pump, precise flow meter and retractable refueling hose reel, realizing safe, fast and quantitative oil loading and unloading. All tank accessories adopt explosion-proof and dangerous goods standard configuration, effectively avoiding oil leakage, static electricity and safety risks during transportation. The tank volume, exterior painting, brand logo and compartment quantity can be fully customized according to customer requirements.
Sinotruk Howo Fuel tanker Advantages
2. High refueling efficiency
Equipped with integrated oil pumps and pipelines. No extra equipment is required, which greatly saves waiting time.
4. Strong emergency fuel supply
It can deliver emergency fuel quickly for broken-down vehicles and equipment running out of oil outdoors, ensuring uninterrupted operation.
6. Reduce vehicle downtime
Vehicles no longer need to travel to gas stations and queue up, effectively improving operational productivity.
This export-oriented Sinotruk Howo fuel tanker aims to solve overseas project pain points: scarce remote gas stations, low refueling efficiency, mixed oil transportation risks, complicated emergency fuel supply and unstable dangerous goods transport safety. It integrates oil storage, long-distance transportation, precise quantitative refueling and emergency oil supply all-in-one.

Technical Parameters
2. Working Principle
Firstly, the sealed storage working principle: The high-strength integral rolled tank body adopts fully welded seamless technology to isolate internal fuel from external air. The matched breathing valve balances internal and external air pressure in real time to avoid tank expansion or shrinkage during driving; the built-in anti-static device conducts static electricity generated by fuel flowing and vehicle driving to the ground, eliminating electrostatic explosion risks. The separated multi-compartment physical isolation structure cuts off liquid cross-flow thoroughly, preventing different fuels from chemical mixing reaction.
Finally, driving safety principle: Based on mature HOWO heavy-duty chassis, gravity balance optimization is carried out aiming at liquid sloshing characteristics. The shock-absorbing suspension weakens fuel turbulence during bumpy driving, improving driving stability; full dangerous goods interlock protection forbids refueling operation while driving, complying with international safety operation specifications.
Mining Field Fuel Supply: Remote open-pit mines without supporting gas stations, batch refueling for Dump Trucks, loaders, drilling rigs and mining engineering machinery, stable fuel supply for all-day continuous mining operation
Emergency Rescue Fuel Delivery: Outdoor broken-down engineering vehicles, oil-outage power equipment, field disaster relief emergency fuel supply, guarantee uninterrupted project operation
Fuel Batch Distribution Business: Secondary oil distribution for small gas stations, bulk fuel transportation for logistics fleets, classified delivery of multiple oil products






4. Comparison with Traditional Fuel Supply Methods
Vs Fixed Ground Gas Station: Traditional fixed gas stations are limited by construction location, unable to cover remote mines and wilderness sites; vehicles need to queue for refueling, causing massive working time loss. This HOWO mobile fuel tanker breaks geographical restriction, carries fuel to working sites directly, supports batch refueling, cuts vehicle round-trip time and greatly improves fleet operating efficiency. Meanwhile, customized compartment design realizes mixed transportation of two or more fuels, which single gas station cannot match.
Vs Ordinary Modified Oil Transport Trucks: Refitted ordinary
Cargo Trucks lack anti-static and explosion-proof structure, with non-welded spliced tank body, easy to cause oil leakage and static explosion hazards, failing international dangerous goods certification. Official HOWO fuel tanker adopts one-piece rolling tank and full-set explosion-proof accessories, compliant with global transportation standards. It owns complete export documents, no customs detention risk, with far higher safety and legal compliance.
Vs Decentralized Portable Oil Drums: Dispersed small oil drums have low storage capacity, easy fuel volatilization, rough metering and hidden fire dangers; repeated handling wastes manpower. The integrated fuel tanker supports large-capacity sealed storage and precise flow metering, requires no auxiliary handling equipment, simplifies operation flow, and reduces long-term fuel loss and labor cost.

5. Buying Guide
For overseas engineering contractors, mining enterprises and fuel suppliers, follow the below purchasing guide:
Confirm Official Dangerous Goods Certification: Choose factory-manufactured fuel tanker with complete export certificates, reject privately refitted vehicles to avoid customs detention and illegal operation risks.
Check Tank Welding Technology: Verify one-time rolling and full-seam welded tank body, refuse spliced tanks to prevent long-term leakage failure.
Select Compartment Configuration: Choose single compartment for single fuel transportation; adopt multi-compartment model if transporting diesel and petrol simultaneously.
Customize Supporting Configuration: Customize tank capacity, outer painting, enterprise logo and refueling accessories according to local working conditions.
6. Operation and Maintenance Tips
6.1 Daily Operation Specifications
Inspect anti-static device, breathing valve and oil pipeline tightness before every startup
Stop the vehicle and pull handbrake tightly before oil loading and unloading; never refuel while driving
Do not overfill fuel, reserve proper air buffer space to avoid liquid expansion leakage
Keep far away from open fire during refueling, forbid high-temperature operation
Clean oil filter regularly to prevent pipeline blockage and inaccurate flow metering
6.2 Regular Maintenance Advice
Check tank welding seams quarterly, eliminate tiny cracks caused by long-distance bumpy driving
Calibrate precise flow meter every six months to guarantee refueling measurement accuracy
Replace anti-static accessories regularly to maintain transportation safety performance
Clean internal oil dirt regularly to avoid fuel contamination
Use original Howo chassis spare parts to guarantee whole-vehicle operating stability
