THE VEHICLE
Overview
This medium-duty potable water tanker is aimed at water utilities, bottling and ice plants, and contractors that need to move clean water in larger lots than a light truck allows. With 10,000 L per trip it cuts the number of runs on regular supply routes, while the two-axle Dongfeng chassis stays simpler to register and maintain than a three-axle tanker.
The tank is made from 304 stainless steel, with food-grade material available, and its inner surface is treated for drinking water service: seams are argon-arc welded and the interior is passivated to form a stable oxide layer that resists corrosion and is easy to rinse. The elliptical tank sits on three reinforced 3 mm support plates, has a 5.0 mm nominal shell, and discharges through a 304 stainless steel water pump. The Dongfeng 4x2 chassis uses a diesel engine, manual transmission, ABS brakes and six tubeless tires, with the emission level offered from Euro 2 to Euro 6 to suit the destination market.
Typical duties include bulk drinking water delivery to districts with irregular piped supply, transfer between treatment plants and storage tanks, and supply to food factories, hotels and construction camps. Fittings such as outlet valves and hose connections can be matched to the customer's filling and discharge points.
