SHACMAN L3000 RHD 15m³ LPG Bobtail Truck
Deliver LPG safely and efficiently across Africa's rough roads with the SHACMAN L3000 RHD 15m³ LPG Bobtail Truck – a 7-ton propane delivery tanker featuring a Weichai 210HP Euro III engine, FAST 8-speed transmission, 15,000L Q345R steel tank (1.71MPa design pressure), PTO-driven LPG pump with flow meter, comprehensive safety systems (safety valve, emergency shut-off valves, level gauge, pressure/temperature gauges), and RHD L3000 cab with sleeper and A/C. Customized for Zimbabwe, this vehicle is ideal for transporting, delivering, and refueling propane/LPG into smaller tanks and home-use cylinders.
SHACMAN L3000 RHD 15m³ LPG Bobtail Truck
The SHACMAN L3000 RHD 15m³ LPG Bobtail Truck is a meticulously engineered gas delivery vehicle specifically customized for Zimbabwe and other right-hand drive African markets. Built on the robust SHACMAN L3000 6×4 chassis with a 4,500mm wheelbase, this vehicle features the L3000 RHD cab with sleeper, air conditioning, central lock, and electric windows – providing driver comfort for long-distance transport across African terrain. The Weichai WP6.210E32 diesel engine delivers 210HP (155kW) with Euro III compliance, paired with a FAST JSJS8STM 8-speed manual transmission (8 forward + 2 reverse) for smooth gear shifts under heavy loads. The 15,000-liter tank is constructed from Q345R steel with 10mm thickness, design pressure of 1.71MPa, working pressure of 1.61MPa, and test pressure of 2.21MPa – ensuring safe storage and transportation of propane/LPG. Safety is paramount with a built-in safety valve (A412F-25-16), two emergency shut-off valves (with switches in valve box and at rear), float ball level gauge (YWJ-25 showing percentage), pressure gauges (YN-100T), thermometer (WTQ-280), and static conductive tape. The PTO-driven LPG pump (VQ15-5, 15.5M³/H) and flow meter (TSC-50 with ticket printer) ensure precise LPG transfer. The 15m retractable filling hose with REGO adapter enables easy refueling of smaller tanks and home-use cylinders.
