ISO Side Discharge Tank
Full occupational health and safety compliance sets SCF’s Side Discharge Tank apart, as the operator can remain on the ground to either ground load or discharge the unit.
Product Details
Suitable for bulk transport and storage, this unique ISO tank can seamlessly integrate into any supply chain that may have been previously serviced by tankers.
Unlike traditional ISO tanks, the bottom discharge can be accessed from the side of the tank allowing the operator to load and discharge without mounting the trailer.
SCF's patent pending integrated foot valve and airline significantly reduces the risk of a tank implosion.
This model also comes equipped with SCF's patented airline indicator valve, which notifies the operator that the tank is open to atmosphere and operational.
Both insulated and non-insulated versions are available.

How is this container delivered?
Side Loader
If your site has limited space around the shipping container’s final position, side loader delivery could be the best option. The container is unloaded between the side loader’s two outrigger feet – about 0.5m from the truck’s side. We use side loaders to transport 20ft and 40ft shipping containers.
Hiab Crane
We use Hiab cranes when there’s not enough space for a side loader or tilt tray – or if your site has other tricky obstacles to manoeuver around (like fences). The crane lifts and then places the shipping container. This method also makes it easy to place containers at an angle, or on raised areas.
