Fluid Transfer Management Products

Our LubeCentral range of couplings is designed to fill and evacuate a wide range of fluids. This helps all heavy industries, including mining and rail businesses that want to service key equipment cleanly, and quickly. LubeCentral products have been specifically created for the job. They avoid contamination and cross-contamination of fluids, and maximise flow rates due to engineering design focused on optimising the fluid path.

Cat 992 Loader multi-tank refuelling

Following the success of the field trial, and subsequent multi-tank installations of FillSafe Zero, the solutions deployed for the Cowal Gold Mine have now been distilled into standardised and integrated Banlaw refuelling and overfill protection products.

Banlaw Fluid Transfer Coupling Range Overview

Here is an overview of our old and newer styles of Flush Face Couplers, along with key benefits. Our Fluid Transfer product family includes Flush Face quick disconnect products, a Fluid Evacuation Coupling, a Grease Transfer Coupling, and our Classic Range of quick couplings.

Tank Overfill Protection

Banlaw’s FillSafe solutions are for all fluid types and flow rates, from just a few gallons per minute to thousands. Get the latest electronic or hydraulically actuated flow control valves / fuel shut off valves as part of an integrated tank overfill protection system. Avoid equipment damage and maintenance costs from inaccurate filling whilst increasing site safety and tank filling efficiency.

Refuelling

We design, engineer and manufacture a range of high performance diesel refuelling components including dry break nozzles, dry break receivers, vents and dust caps. Our products are designed and built for reliability and performance, and used in some of the harshest work environments around the world. Our Dry Break Nozzles are made from steel and aluminium and are ergonomically designed for easy and balanced operation even under high pump pressures. Banlaw dry break nozzles have the highest flow rate capability to help you improve diesel refuelling times and reduce vehicle downtime.

Fuel Management Systems

A Fuel Management System is a combination of hardware and software products, that together enable security, access, and control of fuel stores, whilst monitoring delivery and consumption. Banlaw fuel management systems are for companies that need increased accuracy, accountability, security or productivity from their fluid assets. It is normal for our fuel management customers to achieve fluid reconciliation rates in excess of 99.5%.

Tank Overfill Prevention – Are your tanks spill free?

Are your generators, vehicles, plant equipment or stationary tanks overfilling? There are numerous ways to manage the risk of tank overfill, and in this blog article, we’ll lay out some of the most common, along with the pros and cons of each. Your first question is probably ‘Why should I care?’, and you’d be asking the right question. It all comes down to risk; what is going to happen in each specific situation if an overfill occurs? Does your current risk management program consider the variables of each application, specifically those variables which may determine a hazard? The ALARP principal is often used in the regulation or safety-critical systems, and requires that residual risk is reduced “as low as reasonably practicable”. If you overfill a small storage tank used for water, it may be that plants will get watered, and ‘people could get wet’. With liquid hydrocarbons, it’s often more of an issue. Soil and water become contaminated, tanks are ruptured, critical machines burn down, explosions occur; people can die.

UFFV – MTU Indonesia

Mtu Indonesia needed to minimise downtime caused by premature wear of fuel components. In the mine environment, particles were getting into the fuel through the unfiltered fuel tank vents. A super class mining truck uses between 4,000 and 5,000 litres of fuel a day, so an equivalent amount of “unfiltered” air was entering the trucks’ fuel tanks.

Machining and Assembly

We have our own in-house machining and assembly expertise, ensuring that products are of the highest quality and enabling us to incorporate additional safety, efficiency and user-friendly features.
