OPW Fueling Solutions designs systems for rigorous use in extreme environments, facilitating safe, efficient fuel storage, transfer, dispensing, and monitoring. Its portfolio of products includes equipment for retail and industrial fueling services, as well as above ground and underground containment, fuel management, and fluid and chemical transfer equipment. The company understands that proper fuel handling requires careful planning, regulatory compliance, and financial and legal safeguards, especially in extreme environments like the Southwest. It remains strongly committed to setting the standard for safe and efficient fuel transfer in any industry application. Grohall is proud to be the go-to distributor and service provider for OPW products in Southern Arizona. Here is a closer look at how the company has engineered specialized, heavy-duty fluid handling systems that ensure safety and efficiency.
Highly Advanced Fuel Containment
In the desert, fuel is highly vulnerable to contamination from dust and other debris. It is also subject to changes in volume and viscosity due to extreme temperature shifts and other environmental factors. Heat, wind, and wildlife activity can also cause rapid tank degradation and other problems, increasing the risk of cross-contamination and leaks. OPW aims to mitigate these risks through highly advanced fuel containment measures:
- Dry Disconnect Couplers – Using highly precise engineered connection points, OPW containment tanks eliminate the risk of residual product spills, contamination, leaks, or flash emissions.
- Double-Wall Fuel Storage Tanks – Tanks, sumps, and piping systems are engineered with secondary containment measures like double walls, which prevent underground leaks from contaminating soil or water.
- Vapor Recovery Systems – Vapor balance and recovery systems prevent VOCs from leaching into the surrounding environment, ensuring compliance.
High-Efficiency Flow Rates
OPW’s products are designed to support fluid transfer at various viscosities. Its equipment utilizes advanced flow dynamics to prevent strain, backflow, and delays that could affect your efficiency and bottom line:
- High-Flow Nozzles and Valves – These are designed to eliminate or minimize fluid friction so that bulk fuel transfer and automated dispensing is completed at optimal flow rates.
- Industrial Swivel Joints – These ensure fluid lines are flexible under pressure, and not vulnerable to kinks, shock, or wear and tear.
Precision Inventory Control Measures
Poor inventory control affects your profit margins. OPW utilizes advanced electronic monitoring and tracking sensors and equipment to aid bulk petroleum and lube transfer, storage, and distribution:
- Automated Tank Gauges – OPW’s high-accuracy probes offer real-time data for more accurate tracking of fuel, oil, and water levels. They also provide automated leak detection alerts.
- Smart Fuel Management Systems – Its smart fuel management systems use scalable hardware and software to control fluid access, prevent theft or loss, and simplify auditing processes.
Future-Forward Engineering
OPW’s engineers are committed to future-forward design and manufacturing processes. It has steadily evolved its products to keep up with changing demands and needs. The company offers products that support alternative and next-generation fuels, including hydrogen, liquid natural gas, and liquefied petroleum gas.
