OVERVIEW

Designed specifically for propane, anhydrous ammonia and butane transports. DCE certified to meet or exceed all US DOT CFR49 and Transport Canada B620-14 regulations. These systems continually monitor the off-loading process, looking for a rapid change in discharge pressure. These systems detect a separated hose or failed connection and close the tank internal valve within 1/2 a second.

Auxiliary control panel available for LDS100 and LDS200 systems to allow driver’s side unloading control. Multiple configuration options available for Canadian operations requiring “off truck remote” functionality, optional handheld remote with Query and Emergency Stop.

Features

LDS60

This system has been designed & tested by Design Certified Engineers to meet the compliance requirements of US DOT 49CFR. The low powered control unit continually monitors piping and hose assemblies during the off-loading process. A failed pipe or hose separation will cause the tanks internal valve to close instantly and sound an audible alarm. A simple “reset” button returns the unit to the monitoring state.

LDS60-RF

Configured specifically to comply with Transport Canada B620-14 regulation. This system combines the functionality of the LDS60 with the remote shutdown capabilities of BASE Engineering’s trusted ASK series of remote controls. Please contact factory for more details.

LDS100

This low powered unit continually monitors the off-loading process for “rate of change” parameters, signifying broken or damaged hoses, fittings, and piping. A leak instantly detected and stopped by the closure of the tank internal valve(s). The truck’s engine can also be stopped and PTO disengaged if desired. This system automatically activates at the end of each load. This ensures that the system is fully operational and helps reduce the possibility of a damaged cargo pump due to product run out. This unit also "fails-safe” and closes the internal valve with a loss of power or the release of the trailer parking brakes. Designed to meet requirements of US DOT CFR49.

LDS200-AQRF

Designed to comply with DOT requirements for transport with both ‘metered’ and ‘bulk’ discharge capability. Combines all of the features described above for the LDS100 but includes an ASK handheld with ‘Query’ and ‘Emergency Stop’ buttons. For full remote and function description see our ASKW Emergency Stop product.

Additionally the remote ‘E-Stop’ button gives the operator the ability to activate the passive shutdown at any time during the off-loading process.
