ErichHahn ARU Railway Tank Automatic Discharge Unit
It is designed for the rapid heating and discharge of viscous and hardened materials from tank cars on railway lines. The discharge time depends on the season and region in which the operation is performed. In summer, bitumen is discharged in 7 to 17 hours, while in winter this time varies between 10 to 24 hours.
Advantages of ErichHahn ARU
- Rapid heating of tanks and quick discharge of bituminous materials
- High degree of automation in the process
- High wear resistance in all equipment components
