Industrial Flow Control also known as IFC Inflow has made massive strides as a bulk liquid loading and safe tanker access solutions provider since their establishment in 1987. From an initial focus on flow meters and loading arms, the company today provides their clients with comprehensive project solutions and an extensive range of products. IFC Inflow has equally expanded their market coverage from primary focus on the United Kingdom and Ireland to serving customers across the globe.Talking about how their solutions address the safety requirements in industrial environments, the Technical Director said, “Compliance with regulatory specifications is vital for any company that has bulk liquid handling processes as a measure to minimize potential threats at the facility. We have been dedicated to providing the market with improved products by continuously working at the forefront of technology and innovation. Our in-house engineering capabilities are unparalleled; giving us the confidence of delivering equipment whose specifications meet the standard requirements for the oil and gas industry.”
Worldwide, there has been a progressive shift from the use of top loading arms to bottom loading arms which have been proven to be more efficient with the right installations. IFC stands tall among the leading promoters for the adaptation of bottom loading systems by promoting safer tanker loading for the operator. The series of loading arms manufactured by the company support high flow rates as well as being able to work under wide temperature and pressure ranges. IFC has a team of project managers who can guide the transformation from top to bottom loading arms for a safer work environment and faster load times.
Speaking on why more terminals and depots are embracing bottom loading systems, the Sales Manager said, “The greatest hazard for any terminal or depot operations is the safety of operators who have to work at heights when using top loading arms. This exposes them to a lot of danger as any mistake can become fatal in a matter of seconds. Our bottom loading arms eliminates these risks as it allows the operators to work at ground level. With the inclusion of complementary accessories for enhanced functionality the result is a facility that is safer for operations and the added advantage of leak-free liquid processing.”
The primary role of swivel joints as a complementary accessory is to support the horizontal and vertical movements in a pipeline without affecting its rigidity. Depot Managers looking to buy swivel joint from IFC Inflow have the assurance they are receiving heavy duty models which create durable and efficient loading systems. The company has their swivel joints made either of stainless steel or carbon steel which make a seamless connection even where hazardous products are being handled making them suitable for all oil, fuel, and chemical industries.
