IFC Inflow has been building, designing, & selling loading arms, tanker access gantries, folding stairs, fall prevention equipment, & tanker loading skids. They also sell many key complimentary products, including high-speed transfer pumps, depot automation equipment, bulk flow meters, dry disconnect couplings & swivel joints. They have become one of the most significant Liquid Loading & Safe Tanker Access Specialists in the UK and Ireland. Over its 30 years in the industry, IFC has come up with a range of products. This has come from lengthy experience within the market, combined with their engineering capability.IFC Inflow’s General Manager explains its fall prevention systems: “Our tanker fall prevention systems are geared towards combining safe tanker access while working at heights efficiently and flexibly. Our tanker access products are durable, easy to use and cost effective. They are designed to provide solutions to all road, rail, and marine tanker access while working at heights. We offer both fixed and easily portable options to enable safe and rapid access and loading of vehicles.”
Their tanker fall prevention and safe access systems adhere to the latest health and safety regulations for working at heights. They can supply specific products to suit any particular need, such as a set of folding stairs for added safety. They can also help to plan and execute entire access systems based on the site’s layout and the tanker’s access needs.
On top loading arms, the GM says: “IFC Inflow provides a range of tanker loading arms for top and bottom loading, which are used for loading and unloading tanker trucks. A multitude of liquids, chemicals, paints, solvents, foodstuffs, and beverages can be loaded and unloaded from tankers using IFC loading arms. The range of Petro-Load petroleum loading arms is available in both top and bottom loading specifications, directly from IFC Inflow. These IFC designed loading arms are made to provide a fuel loading solution tailored to the customers’ needs.”
From a Health and Safety viewpoint, the use of bottom loading arms provides the safest method of rail and road tanker loading and unloading. Without the need for working on top of the tanker, the risks associated with working at a height are removed. However, IFC’s top loading arms are designed for companies and industries that still require their products to be loaded into the tops of tankers. The articulated design of the top loading arm provides maximum flexibility and alignment, which can be fitted with optional vapor recovery or overfill prevention systems such as a Scully Monitoring System.
