Emco Wheaton E2632 — Parallel Loading Arm with Vapor Recovery

Overview

Unlike conventional vapor recovery systems that rely on flexible hoses, the E2632 utilizes a dedicated vapor return line equipped with swivel joints. This design eliminates pockets and flow traps, preventing the accumulation of condensed vapors and reducing the risk of emissions when the loading arm is not in operation.

By loading through a sealed manhole, the E2632 helps protect operators and the environment while supporting compliance with environmental regulations and air-quality standards. The vapor recovery system also improves terminal profitability by capturing and returning product vapors that would otherwise be lost during loading operations.

Key Features

  • Parallel arm design enables simultaneous product transfer and vapor recovery.
  • Ideal for hydrocarbons, gasoline, chemicals, and aggressive media.
  • Vapor return system captures product vapors and reduces emissions.
  • Sealed loading operation enhances operator and environmental safety.
  • Product and vapor lines remain free from pockets and condensate traps.
  • Highly maneuverable design operates similarly to a single loading arm.
  • Swivel-joint vapor line eliminates the limitations of flexible hose systems.
  • Supports compliance with environmental regulations and air-quality standards.
  • Optional heating capability available for both product and vapor lines.
  • Piggable design available for easier cleaning and maintenance.

E2632 Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of the E2632 Parallel Loading Arm?

The E2632 is designed to transfer liquid products while simultaneously recovering vapors through a dedicated vapor return system, reducing emissions and improving operational efficiency.

How does the parallel arm design benefit operators?

The dual-boom configuration allows both the product and vapor lines to move together, providing smooth handling and maneuverability similar to a single loading arm.

Which products can be handled with the E2632?

The system is suitable for gasoline, hydrocarbons, chemicals, toxic media, and other aggressive liquid products that require vapor recovery during loading.

Why is the vapor line design advantageous?

The rigid vapor return line with swivel joints eliminates pockets and traps where condensed vapors can accumulate, reducing emissions and improving safety.

Can the E2632 be equipped for heated products?

Yes. The design allows optional heating of both the product transfer line and the vapor recovery line for temperature-sensitive products.
