Our full road tanker enclosure provides a safety cage that fully encloses the tanker loading and unloading area. In contrast to our smaller FlowStep cages, the TTSC allows workers to operate in larger areas on the top of the vehicle. Therefore, making it perfect for situations when access to multiple manways is required. In addition, the TTSC accommodates various tanker configurations and the need to access multiple points along the tanker. It is particularly useful when accessing manways, fill points, vents, or other equipment atop the tanker, or when the site is unsure of the specific location of the manway along the tanker. So, by utilising the Total Tanker Safety Cage workers are protected regardless of the type of vehicle entering the yard. This therefore ensures fall prevention protection and enables workers to operate safely within the Working at Height Regulations.
The TTSC system is lightweight and durable. It comes complete with a set of our FlowStep folding stairs. For cage sizes up to 6m long, our sealed compression spring balance system allows manual operation. For cages longer than 6m, we recommend the use of our pneumatic power pack, which provides effortless control of the system from a single control station. The power pack is also ideal for removing any manual handling concerns with the operation of the stairs.
Pneumatic-powered actuation can be specified for the TTSC, enabling the cage to be lowered at the push of a button, which is perfect for situations where manual handling is a concern. We can also install a moveable access gate that slides into place when a shorter tanker is being operated on. This helps to keep staff safe when frequently switching between full-size road tankers and smaller ISO tanks. If you’re installing our TTSC alongside a loading arm, we can customise the cage to enable free movement of the loading arm over the vehicle. This makes life safer and easier for staff in charge of loading. Additionally, we can incorporate positional sensors that detect when the cage has returned to the home position, preventing staff from accessing the steps while they are in transit.
