Zipfluid Loading Arms for Urea

Urea is an organic compound widely used in fertilizers for its high content of nitrogen; it’s also component of an additive that is employed to reduce the polluting emissions caused by combustion in industrial applications and, more recently, in trucks having Diesel engine.
It is employed in the production of plastic materials and in cosmetics, as a component in creams and as fertilizer in agriculture.

ZIPFLUID SOLUTION

Zipfluid’s proposal for Urea includes top loading arms – our model LA130 in carbon steel and aluminum or in AISI316L stainless steel with seals in FKM.
Volumetric flowmeters combined with flow check-valves, electronic heading and any other additional part required for the measurement system.
Among the most commonly used accessories: standpost, an overfill sensor, parking device and grounding monitor (Timm EKX-4).
Top loading arms can be endowed with a vapor recovery cone on the end pipe with hose to convey the recovered vapor to the arm’s base.
As alternative: bottom loading arms – our model LA250 made of carbon steel and aluminum or in AISI316L stainless steel with seals in FKM and quick couplers Stanag 3756.
Among the most commonly used accessories: standpost, breakaway valve series VA400, sight glass to check the flow, unidirectional check valve, grounding and overfill monitors (Timm EUS-2).
Bottom loading arms are usually combined with a vapor closed-circuit hose with API coupler (API RP1004) or a vapor recovery arm.
