FAW RHD 10m³ LPG Bobtail Truck
In the bustling energy transportation sectors of right-hand drive African nations like Kenya, Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Tanzania, the demand for a reliable, efficient, and robust LPG transportation solution is ever-growing. The FAW RHD 10m³ LPG Bobtail Truck is a meticulously engineered vehicle that meets and exceeds the expectations of these dynamic markets. Designed to meet strict safety standards and rugged operational demands, this truck combines robust construction, advanced safety systems, and user-friendly features for gas suppliers, logistics companies, and industrial users. The Yuchai YC4E160-33 engine delivers powerful, consistent performance, paired with the Shacman Gear 8JS75TC synchronized transmission for smooth gear shifts even under heavy loads. The 4,700mm wheelbase provides excellent stability, while 10.00R20-18PR tires offer superior traction on various African road conditions. The chassis features strengthened leaf springs (10/10+9), enlarged brake shoes, and a 200L iron fuel tank to withstand long-distance transportation and challenging terrains. The 10m³ tank constructed from Q345R material (10mm body / 12mm heads, 1.61MPa design pressure, 1mm corrosion allowance) guarantees safe storage and transportation of LPG. Safety is paramount: DN80 safety valve, DN50 liquid-phase and DN25 gas-phase emergency shut-off valves, flange-type outlets with blind-flange covers, exhaust brake, air-operated parking brakes, 3M reflective markings, and two fire extinguishers. The percentage float-ball level gauge provides accurate LPG level monitoring, while the LPG vane pump (200L/min) and volume flow meter ensure precise transfer. The 15-meter hose with reel and cylinder filling head enables easy refueling operations.
