What to do if the tanker is in a fire

The country’s requirements for dangerous goods transport vehicles are very strict, but accidents involving oil tankers’ fires still occur from time to time. What if the tanker fires during the transportation of oil? The tanker driver must master some methods of fire fighting, and it is most likely to ensure safe driving. If the tanker fires, the first aid method is as follows:

1. If the tanker is on fire while driving and you are unable to extinguish the fire, stop the vehicle to the right as soon as possible and call the police to request rescue.

2. Before the fire truck comes, we must first find a way to self-rescue. For example, you can use a quilt, fire blanket or a fire extinguisher carried with the vehicle to fire the fire source, or use other covers to block the tank. Extinguish the oil fire.

3. If the oil tanker cracks due to high temperature and the oil leaks out, as a driver of the tank truck, you can use the adjacent drainage ditch or dit the trench yourself to let the leaked oil flow into the ditch to burn and control the fire and avoid extend.

4. No matter where the fire occurs in the tank truck, as the driver of the tank truck, the oil remaining on the ground or in the drainage ditch must be properly disposed of, and the oil material should be buried to avoid re-ignition.

5. If the fire is not easy to control after the fire of the tanker, there is a tendency to blast, and the site personnel should immediately evacuate and evacuate to safety.

6. When the tanker fires, quickly close the tank lid of the tanker, close the unloading valve, and use a dry powder fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire. If the appliance is on fire, it must be powered off first, and use a dry powder fire extinguisher to extinguish the fire. .

In order to prevent the tanker from catching fire, we must have preventive measures: whether it is a fuel truck or a tanker, it must be equipped with a special fire extinguisher, and it must be equipped with an electrostatic belt and a static pole for mopping the ground. When the belt must be mopped, when refueling or draining, the electric rod must be inserted into the damp ground. The oil hole of the tank should be tightly sealed. The drain valve and the drain pipe should be free of leakage. The tank vent should be unblocked. The oil filter should be cleaned frequently. After the oil supply hose is used up, it should be connected with the joint cover at both ends of the fashion. No dirt should enter. When the vehicle is parked, keep away from the fire source. In the summer, you should choose to park in a cool place. The thunderstorm weather should not be parked in the big tree. Or under high voltage power lines.

These safety measures must be in place to reduce the probability of fire in tank trucks and to drive safely.
