43 SAFE HANDLING OF LIGHT ENDS The following are some of the important points for loading the tankers. When the truck is in position, all electrical systems should be shut off to eliminate ignition sources. The truck wheels should be chocked and the tanker earthed. The liquid and vapour hoses should be connected, with careful observation for leaks. A knowledgeable person must stand by during the entire loading or unloading operation. Odorant must be added if required, and proper documents and placards must be provided.
Never fill an LPG tank car or truck completely full. If the temperature of the contents rises in a full container during transit, the relief valve will vent liquid due to the pressure built up by liquid expansion. Very little liquid butane has to be vented to create a large cloud of vapour (see Figure 2 on page 2). Outages left in tank cars and trucks should conform to the regulations. Check the level frequently while loading. The amount of LPG in a carrier can be verified by the weight check normally performed before shipping.

Check the level frequently while loading. The amount of LPG in a carrier can be verified by the weight check normally performed before shipping. Use hoses that are designed for the LPG products to be loaded. If in doubt, loaders should be sure to check with their supervisor. Hoses should be hydrostatically pressure-tested at least once a year, and in the interim period, both hoses and fittings should be inspected regularly for cuts, cracks, rusted clamps and other signs of damage.
