The Cryo Hauler Thread

Never here. We blend our own at the plant.
But I do bring survival gear when running In the Dakota back country.

 

Their having me do stuff in Iowa. Place set to deliver to has a high of 6 not including wind chill. Low of -10. I'm not fully sure if I'm going to unload tomorrow. My dispatcher said to wait until I get there tomorrow. I have a feeling Matheson don't care. I have yet told them

 

Do ever just let the pony motor all shift? I have done that.

 

So yesterday I had trouble getting right pump pressure without pony motor dying on me. Today I somehow did it. All I remember is fiddling with recirculation and discharge valves. Maybe also the throttle. Trailer doesn't have a working rpm gauge. But I kept a eye on the pony motor temperature.

 

First time running into a busted pressure gauge. You can move the needle with your finger. I called and said I'm not unloading into that tank.

 

Who are you hauling for?

Is the gauge closest too us, the level of the tank?

 

Our company policy says you never unload with a broken pressure gauge!!!

 

Matheson hauling for. Was told over the phone tank was at 100psi. Gauge said 240psi when I first looked at it. It looked odd to me so I went to touch it. Then realized it was broken.

 

Now I'm at a tank with 0.4in and 0 pressure. Went to call about it. Since no idea what I should do.

 

It seems like common sense. But need to make it a rule in case someone doesn't think right.
