What is baffles tanker?

Baffles are internal dividers inside a tanker used to prevent liquid from sloshing around inside the tank during transport. Tankers that have baffles are called baffled tankers.

Baffled tankers are commonly used to transport liquids such as water, oil, chemicals, and food-grade products. The baffles inside the tank create compartments that help to distribute the weight of the liquid evenly throughout the tank, reducing the risk of overturning during transportation.

Baffled tankers are safer than non-baffled tanker trucks as they provide increased stability and control of the load, which in turn reduces the risk of accidents on the road. They also reduce the amount of product lost during transport due to sloshing.

Baffled tankers typically have additional features for safety, such as spill-proof closures, emergency cut-off systems, and strong hatches that can withstand high pressure. They are also equipped with monitoring systems that detect any leakage or damage to the tank.

Overall, baffled tankers are a preferred choice for industries that require the safe transportation of liquids.
