2.2 How to load the cement tank trailer?
Before loading cement into the cement trailer, we must first open the exhaust valve to make sure that the air in the tank has been eliminated to avoid accidents.
2. We should open the manhole cover, place the filter and then load cement or other dry powder materials with a diameter no larger than 0.1mm through the manhole cover.
3. After loading, clean the cement in the sealing ring and close the manhole cover tightly.
4. At the end, the exhaust valve should be closed and check that the butterfly discharge valve is closed to avoid leaks during transport.
2.3 How does the cement tank trailer work?
The working principle of cement tank trailers is to use the power of the trailer itself to operate the air compressor, and then the compressed air is transported through the pipeline to the air chamber under the sealed tank so that the particles inside can be suspended. When the pressure inside the tank reaches a certain value, the discharge valve can be opened at this time, so that the material inside can be transported through the pipeline.
2.4 How to unload the cement tank trailer safely?
1. First, the discharge pipe should be connected. When the discharge pipe is connected, the sealing ring should be closed; the inlet and outlet valves of the front and rear air chambers should be opened first, then the valves are closed: the pressure relief ball valve, the external air source ball valve, the secondary air ball valve, the discharge butterfly valve.
2. Start the engine, make sure to start smoothly, then the air compressor starts smoothly, gradually increase the throttle so that the air compressor can reach the rated speed, thus inflating the tank.
3. When the pressure rises to 0.15Mpa, the secondary air ball valve is opened to clear the discharge pipe, and it is determined that the discharge pipe is not blocked, and the secondary air ball valve can be closed.
4. When the pressure is 0.2Mpa, the discharge butterfly valve should be opened to start discharging.

5. Close the front air chamber on the balloon valve, only let the rear air chamber go in, and watch the pressure gauge. If the pressure gauge rises, it means it is not discharged. When the pressure rises to 0.02Mpa, the pressure will not drop at this time.
6. Indicates that the rear part has been discharged. If the pressure value does not rise, it indicates that the rear has been discharged. When it is determined that the rear part has been discharged, the front air chamber is then opened at the globe valve. The same principle is the same as the rear air chamber.
7. The final step is to confirm that there is no residual material in the front and rear air chambers, then the engine can be turned off, the air compressor can be closed, the pressure relief ball valve can be opened, the unloading butterfly valve can be closed, the unloading quick coupling can be removed, and then the hose can be removed. Put it back into the car, which completes the unloading work.

2.6 How to clean the cement tank trailer?
The dry bulk trailer generally does not need to be cleaned because the dust we throw away can be discharged when it is unloaded. If there is a small amount of residue, it is harmless. If it is generally cleaned, it can be cleaned directly with water. It is very simple. Normally, the driver will go to clean the tank.
There are very few companies in the market that are cleaning tanks. They usually clean themselves, and few people spend money.
