Tanker & Depot
IFC INFLOW celebrated 30 years in business last year with a feature article in the August 2017 issue of
Fuel Oil News.
Specialising in the design and manufacture of tanker bottom loading skids and bottom loading arms
for the oil distribution industry, IFC welcomes your depot loading questions, whether planning a new
depot or upgrading an existing one.
IFC’s electronic bottom loading skid can be linked to its depot automation software which
incorporates the Acufl ow and the Satam fl ow metering range. It also supplies Mann-Tek’s range of dry
disconnect couplers and safety breakaways for the safer handling of hazardous products.
The company offers other bulk liquid handlings solutions for oil distributors, including bulk meters,
transfer pumps, top and bottom loading arms and safe tanker access systems.

LIQUIP’s Lynx 850VG bottom
loading coupler is the lightest semi
auto unit in the fi eld at 8.6kg, even
with a protective stainless steel outer
body. The coupler can be serviced
in very little time, taking less than a
minute to get to all of the Viton GFLT
seals. It is also possible to remove the
face and inner seal when still hanging
from a drained hose and is suitable
for ethanol duty.
The company has supplied its
LBM800 loading arms to NuStar,
Navigator and Valero with around 60
arms fi tted last year.
