Pump/Compressor location

You have someone to hang this ?
.... because it’s a art form.. Some people don’t care how it looks or how it is to work it. But that’s not me.....

 

Our Frieghtliners all have the APU on the left behind the fuel tank. Our APU is the steps to get to the catwalk.

 

You getting one of these...?

HydraCHEM - Paragon Tank Truck Equipment

 

You really want a vane pump. Especially if your pumping fuel.
Some of our trucks have those Hydrachem pumps, they are nothing but trouble. Slow and messy.

 

Chemicals he won’t use it enough to matter ....

 

Watched a mechanic for another carrier, using a plasma cutter, would duplicate the gasket area at each end of the gears on a Roper style [not a 90 degree one like in the picture] and extend one side into a mount bracket that went inside the frame rail tucking the pump up and out of the way and a 3 - 4 inch nipple and elbow got the plumping poking out above and below the frame. Made a nice clean setup, worked well with a side mount PTO.
