Building Peterbilt In-Frame Hydraulic Tanks Since 1995
If you need a Peterbilt in frame hydraulic tank we can build one for you. You also have the option of ordering a Peterbilt split fuel hydraulic tank if that works better for your purposes. On many occasions we’ve been asked to build custom hydraulic tanks for Peterbilt 389 and other models.
We also do something that’s unheard of in today’s day and age – we assist you with your design at no additional charge.
Before you go with a custom design, check out the variety of standard hydraulic tanks we offer on our hydraulic tank catalog. If a standard tank won’t do we’ll be pleased to build a custom hydraulic tank to your specifications. The material selection is up to you – choose between steel, stainless and aluminum.
Important Things To Consider For Your Peterbilt In Frame Hydraulic Tank:
- Your hydraulic tank has to be large enough to allow returning fluid to slow down as it enters allowing the entrained air to escape and contaminants to settle
- It has to have a baffle to separate fluid entering the reservoir from that which is entering the suction line
- A hydraulic tank has to provide a large surface area to transfer heat from the fluid to the air
- An aluminum hydraulic tank dissipates heat better than steel
- Allow ample air space above the fluid to accept bubbles that float to the surface
- Easy access to add new fluid and remove old fluid and contaminants
- Every hydraulic reservoir must be properly sized to allow for hot-fluid expansion, gravity drain-back during system shutdown, and storage of large enough volume to supply during intermittent peak periods of operating cycles
Whether you’re considering a Peterbilt in frame hydraulic tank or a split fuel hydraulic tank these are critical factors that some tank builders are not even aware of. Our OEM design team stands ready to incorporate creative solutions into your hydraulic tank design.
We pressure test each tank to ensure the integrity of the welds. If it’ll hold pressurized air, it’ll hold your hydraulic fluid. As a leading manufacturer of fuel and hydraulic tanks, you’ll come to rely on us for a great working relationship. Whether you order one or one hundred, you’ll get consistent product quality, dependably shipped on-time.
