Enhanced Safety and Efficiency with Bottom Loading Arms
Emco Wheaton offers premium loading arm systems that are tailored to meet the demands of truck loading applications. From tank truck systems and API couplers to loading arms and safety access equipment, we provide you with complete solutions.
Our bottom loading arms are perfect for filling multiple compartment tank trucks. As bottom loading takes place on the ground, it is inherently safer for the operator. It allows for simultaneous loading of several truck tank compartments and increases the speed and efficiency of loading.
Bottom truck loading is easily adaptable to vapor recovery systems. Emco Wheaton bottom loading arms conform to the API RP1004 standard. Each arm is designed for safe and reliable loading of tank trucks, rail cars, or any other vessel with sealed connections.
Our comprehensive range of truck loading arms are capable of handling any liquid. From liquefied natural gas and petroleum products, to hazardous and non-hazardous chemicals and food grade liquids. We have a range of top loading arms, bottom loading arms, API couplers and access equipment for loading platforms. Our portfolio includes all the elements necessary to meet your rail car loading and unloading needs.

Parallel Device for Bottom Loading Arms
The arm is fitted with six swivels for complete 3-axis movement of the tanker connection, allowing for tanker height changes during filling/discharge. The arm is additionally fitted with a parallel bar that holds the tanker connection arm ("B"-length) in a horizontal position irrespective of the primary arm ("A"-length) position. This makes tanker connection and disconnection much easier. The B-length also has a gas spring fitted allowing the operator to raise and lower the B-length with total ease.

Mechanical
Our mechanical Quick Release System provides automatic disconnection of a loading arm in the event of a tanker accidentally driving away. Simultaneously the product flow will be shut off both upstream and downstream of the disconnection point.
Learn More
Pneumatic
Our pneumatic Quick Release System provides automatic disconnection of a loading arm in the event of a tanker accidentally driving away whilst simultaneously shutting off the product flow both upstream and downstream of the disconnection point.
Learn More
Hydraulic
Our Hydraulic Quick Release System E0790 is used for the automatic separation of a connected loading arm from a tank vehicle in the event of an accidental drive-away whilst still connected. In this event, there is minimal loss of pressure in the rest of the connected supply.

Hose Release System
Our Hose Release System is used for the protection of loading hoses during loading/unloading of barges, providing environmentally safe handling of loading hoses.

Telescopic Drop Tube
is used with a bottom contact switch, ensuring that the drop tube is permanently in touch with the bottom of the tanker being loaded. Our telescopic drop tubes can be either manually or pneumatically operated. Manually operated telescopic drop tubes are robust and have a short installation.
Learn More
Heating Systems
Designed to keep loaded fluids in a liquid state, used for products with low and middle temperature ranges or if there is no other heating media available.
Learn More
Overfill Safety Device
Secondary safety system which prevents product overflow, for example in the case of an incorrect pre-selected loading amount.
Learn More
SURELOK Couplings
Represent the most innovative method of producing fast and tight connection between two hoses or a vessel and a hose. These couplings comply with the safety requirements of the chemical and oil industries.
Learn More
Vapor Cones and Plates
Adding a vapor cone or plate with a vapor recovery system on the arm, this improves the profitability of the terminal because vaporized product can be recovered and does not pollute the environment.
