Tank firecracker for petroleum products

The technology for filling containers or reservoirs for storing liquid petroleum products involves the use of special shut-off valves. For equipment, a standard hp firecracker is used, which:

  1. Installed on the inside of the tank.
  2. Mounted behind the inlet-dispenser pipe.
  3. Has a mechanical operating principle.

The operating principle is as follows way: the liquid supplied or pumped into the tank, due to the resulting force, opens the passage in the pipe, opening the lid. After completion of work or in the event of a decrease in pressure to minimum values, the lid, mounted in a movable state on the bracket, “slams shut” hermetically (hence the name “cracker”), blocking the passage.

Technical manufacturing conditions

Crackers are considered mandatory for use in containers used for pumping and storing petroleum products. They are produced according to the established parameters of the domestic GOST and are classified according to the dimensional parameters of the passage (working hole):

  • Material of the body and cover - technical aluminum.
  • Sealing elements - covered with a layer of brass to increase the service life.

Installation is carried out using flanges corresponding to the size of the firecracker. Supplied in pairs (internal and reverse) complete with paronite seals and connecting threaded fasteners.
