The Ignition Hazards of Static Electricity Associated with Vacuum Trucks

Sept. 5, 2024
Although vacuum trucks provide a fast and efficient method of removing industrial waste deposits, transferring chemicals and recovering hazardous materials, these operations are an inherently dangerous occupation.

For those responsible in providing a safe working environment in the recovery of flammable and combustible products within hazardous process industries, one of the most potentially confusing aspects is determining susceptible areas that have the potential to discharge static sparks and installing the right solution to mitigate these risks.   Vacuum trucks and bulk chemical road tankers transferring flammable products require static grounding protection preventing the build-up of static electricity on the truck and equipment connected to the truck.
