WHO NEEDS THIS TRAINING

  • Anyone involved with the loading, unloading, securement or inspection of a hazardous material tank truck.

WHAT MAKES OUR TRAINING DIFFERENT

Our onsite tank truck training for the loading and unloading focuses on MC-306, DOT-406, MC-307 and DOT 407 general commodity tank trucks but we briefly discuss and can answer questions regarding DOT 331 (pressure) or DOT 338 (cryogenic) tank trucks.

In the classroom setting, we cover:

  • Pre-Trip Tank Truck Specification Plate Review
  • Types of Specification Dates
  • Periodic Inspection Dates
  • DOT Regulatory Requirements
  • Maximum Allowable Working Pressure
  • Maximum Load and Unloading Rates
  • Maximum Loading Temperature
  • Maximum Density
  • Emergency Shut Offs and Pressure Relief Device
  • Manway Gasket Inspection and Manway Securement for Tank Trucks
  • We can also conduct a field exercise, upon request, using a staged tank truck. This exercise can be very helpful, especially for new employees. The employee has the opportunity to relate the information presented in the classroom to the actual tank truck components. The instructor will conduct an actual walk around inspection on the staged tank truck so that your employees have a visual reference to the components on a tank truck and their typical location.
  • We offer customized training that focuses on your company’s products, operation, and goals!
  • A copy of the training material is given to each employee in attendance, and is a great reference guide as they progress in their job.
  • Furthermore, anyone attending the course can contact one of our instructors for answers to specific questions for the same period of time.
