Arm Type■ Top Loading
TSLA with torsion spring balance
unit is generally adapted to open
dome loading of petroleum products
and chemicals. VRA with air
actuator balance unit is generally
adapted to closed dome loadingwith vapor recovery system for theapplication of volatile fluids. Steamjacketed type VRA is available forhigh temperature service.
TS TypeVRA TypeSB TypeCB Type■ Bottom Loading
SBLA is particularly suited for closed
system loading products such as
LPG, chemicals, and fuel productswith API coupler. CBLA is generally
adapted to cryogenic applicationsuch as LNG.

■ Standard Size

■ Length of Arm

Flow rate, loading time, pressure drop and other factors to decidesize/diameter of loading arm.

Arm length to be considered by writing working range
from installation point of arm to truck/tanker flange or
hatch. For smooth operation, most appropriate length
is considered for each requirement.

temperature are easily handled
through the dual seal TB-NIIGATA
swivel joints. Dual PTFE seals are
tandemly arrayed and this structure
ensures high sealing performance.
Water seal which has same structure
as packing is also used to preventball-bearing from damaging due towater or dust from outside. Low
