The fuel’s journey, from road to wing.

  1. 01 / 05

    Highway

    Road Tanker

    The journey starts on the road. ADR-compliant tankers carry the fuel to the airport, from 5,000 to 20,000 litres.

  2. 02 / 05

    Depot

    Stationary Tank Unit

    At the airport the fuel goes into the depot's tank farm and leaves it by refueller or through the hydrant line. Where a fixed fuelling point is needed, stationary tank units from 10,000 to 45,000 litres serve as the station.

    Apron

    Rigid and Semi-Trailer Refuellers

    One way to the wing: refuellers fill at the depot and drive to the aircraft. Up to 20,000 litres on a rigid chassis, up to 60,000 on a semi-trailer.

    Hydrant

    Hydrant Dispenser and Pit Cleaner

    The other way runs underground. The dispenser fuels from the hydrant pit at up to 4,000 L/min; the pit cleaner cleans and dries the hydrant system with vacuum, water and air.

    Wing

    Both ways end at the underwing coupling. It locks and the meter turns. We have built the vehicles for this moment since 1995.
