I appreciate you. You covered some of the safety aspects of this kind of work. Very helpful and important. Guys from the military make some of the Best out here. ✌️
When finishing the load, you released the air via the blowoff valve. What would happen if you let all the air pressure off through the product line? would it damage the silo?
You can do that but it takes longer, and also you never know if the product silo has some built up pressure too. Using the blowdown is a fool proof way and you should never drive with it closed anyway. The tank can actually build pressure while you’re driving if you leave it closed
@@scouttrucker Thanks for the reply, the sicario i am investigating is that the top of a silo popped off just as a tanker was finished emptying (about 3/4 filled the silo), the company that owns the silo say that the driver should have released the blow of valve when he finished loading and that is the reason the silo exploded, i find that hard to believe.
@@michaelfogarty5894 It can happen sometimes when the hopper in the tank finishes emptying out. Once there is no product in the line flowing anymore, there is nothing stopping a burst of direct air pressure from being released into the silo. It's possible the driver could have been unloading at a PSI higher than the silo is rated for but who knows.
You will love this. Our new Management thinks we can Unload 30+ Tons of Flour without banging on the side of the tanker. They also think that this practice is causing the Tankers to Crack. They even want to put 10PSI Top air release valves on the tankers as they think 15 PSI is not Helping either. We are wondering when they are going to hire more drivers and are we going to get paid more? :)
🤣🤣 heard that before. I ended up leaving bulk tanker in SLC cuz it just got way too slow. Tried to stick with it for a while but I wasn’t making enough money. Company was great but the work wasn’t there.
I’ve done it before but it didn’t really make a difference. It depends on what you’re delivering. With flour you can, with salt it would almost immediately plug up
@@scouttruckerthank you. this way you dont worry about it any more until it is unloaded and last clean out. Try less than quarter next time.test it but if it is harmfull for yourself or truck ,dont try. Have fun and experiment with safty.
I understand why you hit the tanker and individual tanks to get the product out. But why? you have "top air" pressure to push the product down? Does not work with salt or fine powder products?
Nice demonstration. You said you had a second delivery....... do you just reload the same tanker or do you drop it off and get a clean one? Also do you have to deal with tank washes much?
i pump 15-17 all day. as long as the trailer aint screamming its full send! flour is easy money. i deliver daily in nyc.300 miles a day.one and one. that trailer is so old and shitty lol but those old ones blow off faster in my experience.
OMAR JUST STARTED HUALLING DRY BULK MY TRAINER DIDNT EXPLAIN ALL THE VALVES AND WHAT THEY DOES HE WAS BUSY OPEN AND CLOSING OTHER ONE I LEARN LOT FROM YOUR VIDEO THANKS BUDDY
I’ve always wonder how they get that product off Thanks for explaining that you made it very simple
Very informative video right now I’m in the process of building a Lego version of a dry bulk trailer
I appreciate you. You covered some of the safety aspects of this kind of work. Very helpful and important. Guys from the military make some of the Best out here. ✌️
Thank you for this video 👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks for the info im looking to get into it.
I do the same thing with Foodliner. Flour, salt, starch and sugar. I've been doing vacuum transloading with sugar lately..
I’ll have to dig out my goretex from my 2003 deployment. I’m starting at a dry bulk outfit next week in Colorado. Nice content brother
Great info , was thinking about doing tanker. How do you do washouts on those trailers and how often? Maybe a video?
We don’t do the washouts so I don’t know how it’s done but it’s every two weeks
Exaplained it perfectly bro. Thank you💯💯
Do you know if soybeam meal can be transloaded with pneumatic trailers? or is it only with conveyors
You still with foodliner?
Had to leave them when I moved because they didn’t have a spot for me here.
Cool video, learned a lot from this👍

Hi
Can you open four valves of hoppers at the same time but quarter of full valve?
I’ve done it before but it didn’t really make a difference. It depends on what you’re delivering. With flour you can, with salt it would almost immediately plug up
@@scouttruckerthank you. this way you dont worry about it any more until it is unloaded and last clean out.

It hangs up on the side of the trailer
so dry bulk and pneumatic are the same type of trailer ?
There are a few different types of pneumatic trailers. This is just specifically a dry bulk one. Liquids are different trailers
For diffrent material how you clean inside of trailer before diffrent load
And what is the regullation?
You get the trailer washed and haul a different commodity.
Nice demonstration. You said you had a second delivery....... do you just reload the same tanker or do you drop it off and get a clean one?
Also do you have to deal with tank washes much?
If it’s the same kind of flour or close enough we can reload the same trailer. I don’t have to wash it, this company has dedicated washers.
How's ur terminal near phx AZ? Decent
Never been lol
Great explanation
Good morning bro what is your company name I be driving chemical for 10 years I'll like to do something different
This is Food Express but they’re only out west. Foodliner is who I was with when I moved
Thinking about getting into dry bulk 17 yrs of steel hauling is wearing on me lol
It’s good money as long as the company you’re with is busy. Out here in Utah it was way too slow
Hi do your company is hiring in miami fl?????
i pump 15-17 all day. as long as the trailer aint screamming its full send! flour is easy money. i deliver daily in nyc.300 miles a day.one and one. that trailer is so old and shitty lol but those old ones blow off faster in my experience.
Are you home daily doing this?
Yes but I also take overnight runs. Most bulk tanker I’ve seen is home daily
I was deployed in '05!
Man I wouldn’t mind doing that
Parallel. Is thenword tounare looking for.
🚛🚛💯💪🏽💪🏽💪🏻
Did you get new teeth or something?
Yeah he got veneers. Lookin real nice
