Emco Wheaton TTE Equipment Demonstrates Operational Excellence

At Emco Wheaton, we design and deliver equipment that performs in the most demanding environments. A recent defence aviation fleet upgrade provided a valuable opportunity to showcase the real-world application of our Tank Truck Equipment (TTE)—specifically in high-capacity aircraft refuelling operations. 

Built for Aviation Fuel Transfer 

The project involved the refurbishment of a fleet of 20,000-litre refuelling vehicles used to support military aircraft operations. These vehicles are designed to handle Jet A-1, the standard aviation turbine fuel used globally in both defence and commercial aviation. 

Emco Wheaton supplied a selection of bottom loading and refuelling components, including: 

  • Standard and pressure-balanced footvalves 

  • Manlids 

  • Diptubes 

  • Refuelling nozzles 

These components are engineered for compatibility with Jet A-1 and built to meet the rigorous standards of aviation fuel handling—ensuring safe, efficient, and contamination-free transfer. 

Demonstrating Real-World Reliability

This project didn’t present a technical challenge—it was a demonstration of how Emco Wheaton’s TTE products integrate seamlessly into mission-critical operations. Our equipment was selected for its proven reliability, ease of maintenance, and compliance with modern transport and safety standards. 

Whether operating on airfields, military bases, or remote deployment zones, these refuelling vehicles now feature Emco Wheaton components that help ensure aircraft are fuelled quickly and safely—ready for takeoff at a moment’s notice. 

Proven Performance in Demanding Environments

This success story highlights the versatility and dependability of Emco Wheaton’s TTE portfolio. From defence logistics to commercial aviation, our equipment is trusted by operators who require performance without compromise.
