Amthor International Air Operated Railings

Our latest addition to our tank options is our air operated aluminum railing system.  This system will ensure the drivers safety when walking on top of the tank.  The best part about this design is the driver is forced to raise and lower the railings prior to getting on and off of the top of the tank.  What we do is we install a panel in the middle of the ladder that the driver has to open to be able to climb up the ladder and when the panel is opened the air switch automatically raises the railings and when climbing down the ladder the driver has to close the panel which when that is done the railings come down.

The Claw – Amthor’s Patented Hydraulic Vacuum Tank Rear Door Opening System 

Amthor International will introduce The CLAW (patent pending), a series of hydraulic arms to open and close the rear door on vacuum trucks, eliminating the use of wing nuts along the top and sides. “No longer does the driver have to climb ten to thirteen feet in the air to tighten down the rear door,” explains Brian Amthor, VP, Marketing. “All he has to do is pull a lever and the arms extend and reach out to release or pull the door in which will ensure a much tighter seal than any human can provide manually. The CLAW locks past center and even if pressure is lost or the cylinder falls to operate, the latch will not be loosened.”
