Sequenced air systems like this product offer a clean, safe and reliable way to deliver petroleum products. Users benefit from a fully customisable design that is designed to cope with today’s harsh and hazardous demands encountered during transportation.
This product’s simple design makes it highly reliable when transporting product in tank trucks. EMCO Wheaton’s team of engineers can define and change the pneumatic circuits according to customers’ requirements, meaning all possible applications are covered before installation.

EMCO Wheaton’s air control system is compact to provide maximum flexibility when working with different vehicle designs. It can also be fitted onto a fascia plate with or without a container cabinet. The container is made from stainless steel and is power-coated to protect valves from adverse weather conditions and road debris when transporting product.
Other features include a knock-off pad, which engages when the master control is left open and the lid is shut. This ensures all controls are closed and the brakes are freed before the tanker sets off. Our pneumatic control system comes complete with a power close functionality closing all compartment controls in the event of an accident or emergency.
Systems like this can also be fitted with visual indicators that sequence with the mechanical valves. These are fitted on the front panel, giving operators an easy reference to check everything is working correctly.
This system can be built to specification. Options include:
EMCO Wheaton’s air control system is used on fuel carrying road tankers throughout the world.
Its lightweight, modular design makes it an ideal match for many different vehicle designs, including those requiring individual compartment valve control on multi-compartment tankers.
Durability is a key design feature in all EMCO Wheaton products. But fuel transport and delivery is taxing, and even the best parts can wear over time. This is why a team of expert engineers are on hand to support your pneumatic control system and keep it running to specification. We stock a range of spare parts across our global network of service centres to ensure changes and upgrades can be quickly.
