Heavy Lift and Project Transport
Vehicle Diesel Tank Security Solutions
Lowbed and special superstructure vehicles performing heavy lift and project transport are extra sensitive to fuel theft due to high fuel consumption and long route durations. FuelGuard secures the fuel of each vehicle in accordance with project conditions through vehicle-specific designed anti-siphon and complete tank security sets.
The heavy lift sector includes the transport of critical loads such as power plant equipment, large machine parts, and industrial facility components. Lowbed tractors and special superstructure vehicles used in these project transport operations constitute the most complex and costly area of the logistics sector due to both high tonnages and often non-standard routes.
Fuel Guard Diesel Tank Protection Solutions for
Heavy Lift and Project Transport Sector Vehicles
Heavy lift and project transport is one of the logistics areas where diesel consumption is most intense due to high engine power requirements and long route durations. Any fuel loss that may occur in these vehicles is a serious risk factor that directly affects project costs. By using fuel tank security systems, the tanks of especially lowbed and special superstructure vehicles can be taken under physical protection. Fuel Guard, with the diesel security kit it has developed in this regard, ensures that vehicles are fully equipped against diesel theft attempts both while parked and during travel.
These systems do not only offer a standard protection but also create a fuel protection infrastructure resistant to harsh construction site conditions and external factors. Thanks to the diesel tank neck apparatuses protecting the fuel tank entrance and the diesel bottom plug discharge apparatus preventing the drainage of diesel from below, all vulnerability points on the fuel tank are closed. Thus, a professional protection that leaves no room for doubt regarding diesel security, is closed to external interventions, and increases operational efficiency is provided.

How Does Protecting the Diesel Tank Security
in Your Heavy Lift and Project Transport Sector Vehicles Contribute to Your Business?
- Because the tanks of project transport vehicles and equipment are very large, thousands of liras worth of diesel loss can occur in a single theft incident. Fuel Guard prevents large financial damages by completely blocking this high-volume loss.
- At terminals, different drivers may use the vehicles 24/7. Diesel depletion is frequently experienced during these handover deliveries. By protecting all entry points on the diesel tank, Fuel Guard provides a clear diesel security independent of the driver and eliminates suspicions regarding diesel expenses.
- It is difficult to track the diesel consumption of vehicles working short distances in the port area. When diesel tank security is not provided, it cannot be understood whether the difference between them is due to the job or theft. The system prevents diesel leakages and uncertain diesel losses in the field by physically closing the diesel tank entrance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Large Tank Capacity of Heavy Lift Vehicles Affect Fuel Guard Performance?
No, tank capacity does not affect the performance of Fuel Guard. Fuel Guard systems are designed to physically prevent fuel from being stolen from the tank. The large tanks of heavy lift vehicles (e.g., more than 1000 liters) actually increase the value of the system, because the amount of loss prevented in a single instance is much higher.
Do External Factors (Dust, Mud) at Project Sites Clog the Fuel Guard Mechanism?
High-quality Fuel Guard systems are specially designed for challenging environments such as construction sites and mining. These systems have optimized flow channels that ensure rapid fuel flow while minimizing the accumulation of contaminants while protecting against siphoning. With regular maintenance, the risk of clogging is minimized.
Can Fuel Guard Be Installed on Different Specialized Equipment Used in Project Transport (Cranes, Modular Trailers)?
Fuel Guard solutions can be adapted not only for tractors but also for the refueling points of mobile cranes, generators, and other large heavy machinery used in projects. This allows you to create a standard fuel security protocol for all your field equipment.
What Is the Most Correct Way to Include the Fuel Guard Investment in Project Costs?
A Fuel Guard investment should be seen not as a security or risk reduction cost, but as an element that provides direct operational cost savings. In project bids, the most correct approach is to justify the investment with the estimated fuel savings obtained thanks to the theft prevention and uninterrupted operation guarantee the system will provide.
