Asphalt Refinery
Improves Distribution
with New Rail Car
Loading System
Since the new loading system has
been in operation, the benefit that's
been easiest to track is the change in
shipping volume, which rapidly
doubled. "We believe the cost for the
new rack was paid for in the first year
of its inception through the returns on
the volumes shipped," says Fajen.
More importantly, in 1999, its two rail
suppliers, Norfolk Southern Corp. and
CSX Corp., recognized the Savannah
refinery for outstanding safety in rail
car shipping.
The rail car loading system has operated without a single incident since
the new Carbis rack was installed.
Overall, says Fajen, it has provided a
more efficient and safe process to his
refinery's distribution system.

I would like to extend my sincere thanks
to Carbis, Inc. for supplying our company
with superb service and quality products.
The sales representatives have been very
knowledgeable and responsive to our
needs.
I would like to thank Carbis, Inc. for supplying us with
superb service and quality products. The Carbis support
staff has been very knowledgeable and responsive to
our needs.
We recently expanded our Propane and
Butane Rail/Trucking terminal to include
transfer and storage of denatured Ethanol.
With the inclusion of your Bottom Loading
A-Frame 4” liquid product arms on our
truck loading racks, the new venture has
been a success. Many of the drivers claim
that we have the fastest and most efficient
Ethanol loading system of any terminal
they have loaded at, and that the Carbis
arm is extremely user friendly.
Please keep up the good work, and thanks
again for providing such excellent service.
Sincerely,
The Fieldsboro, NJ site purchased its first Tank Truck /
Seatainer Access System in the year 1998. The system
was such a success that we installed an additional 4 like
units, 3 portable units, 2 stand-alone units, and 4 sliding
units at our rail car station. The reliability of our Carbis
equipment is tremendous. This equipment is used daily
around the clock with minimum downtime. When we
have had the need to replace minor components and
make field modification, Carbis engineers were able to
assist us without hesitation.
I have never called Pat or Tug and not have them return
my call with a solution to my inquiry. Your focus on customer service is greatly appreciated.
It is a testimony to me that I have befriended Pat Tilton
and Tug; I do not usually have close relationships with
sales personnel. Keep up the good work, and always
keep customer focus first.

Static Grounding for Road Tankers
Static Sparks and

Whenever flammable liquids or powders are
transferred, or wherever there is a risk of conductive plant items becoming isolated from
ground within hazardous locations, effective
grounding and bonding is necessary to ensure
safe dissipation of static electricity to prevent
fires and explosions which can be ignited by
static. When connected to a tanker truck or
other conductive equipment, the intrinsically
safe monitoring circuit verifies a low resistance
connection and dissipation path to ground.
Good connection is confirmed by pulsing LED
indicators, releasing a pair of voltage-free
output contacts and enabling the transfer of
product to start.
■ Explosion-proof (XP/Ex d)
controller with intrinsically safe monitoring
module
The -Rite RTR™ is the most advanced Road
Tanker Grounding (Earthing) System for
protecting personnel and plant assets from
static hazards during road tanker loading
and offloading operations.
■ Explosion-proof control

The Rite PLUS™ provides positive verification of static ground (earth) connections on a wide range of
industrial plant equipment, including rail cars, drums, containers, and other conductive equipment.
■ Mode 1 | Tank Truck Recognition
Confirms RTR clamp is connected to

■ Mode 2 | Positive Ground

■ Mode 3 | Ground Connection

■ Ground connection junction box with stowage pin

Flatbed Access Platforms

www.Carbis.net
For Loading and Tarping Applications
How it works
Accessing flatbed trailers for tarping/securing loads can be very dangerous.
A fall from a trailer is potentially life threatening.
■ The flatbed truck drives between the two fall
prevention platforms
Carbis’ flatbed fall prevention platforms help prevent falls from
flatbeds while tarping, inspecting loads, etc.
■ With the press of a button, the platforms
move together, sandwiching the trailer in the
middle
■ Now personnel can safely access the deck of
the flatbed trailer for tarping, sampling, etc.
without the fear of falling
■ Designed to meet your specific needs

When a truck rolls onto your business

A fall from a trailer is potentially life threatening.
Carbis’ powered tarping systems provide a safe way to tarp loads
without having to climb on back of trailers or on top of loads.
Simply connect a tarp to
the spreader bar and
guide along length of
trailer via hand-held
pendant control and
powered winch system.
■ Save time and money by speeding up operations,
reducing back injuries, and eliminating falls related
to climbing loads

model (MBL) or double rung
model (DMBL - as shown),
with or without handrails
Save time, expense, and manpower
while adding safety with a marine
loading arm.
■ Aluminum construction is
lightweight and resists
corrosion
The perfect solution for loading and unloading many
types of marine vessels, the loading arm provides
strength and stability needed to get the job done. An
alternative to direct hose hookups, loading arms can
transfer at higher loading rates and pressures.
■ Open truss construction
reduces weight and wind
resistance
■ Heavy-duty swivel safety
shoes with thick rubber tread
improve footing on many
surfaces
■ Handrail models - handrails
start 4’ from the bottom of
the ladder

■ Bowed truss construction
affords a distributed load
capacity of 2000 lbs.
■ Constructed of 6000 series
marine grade aluminum alloy
for durability
■ 24” wide aluminum deck plate
features a slip-resistant coating
and aluminum angle cleats for
better traction and added
safety
■ Faster and more economical: one person can do the work
of two or more in a fraction of the time
■ Safer: the potential for injury and all of its costs is reduced to
its lowest when partial or full automation replaces brute
strength
■ More environmentally responsible: less risk of leaks and
spills caused when “hoses rupture”
