Two Products in JDI’s Fuel Chief Gas Caddy Line Now Carry UL Listing

The UL certification comes from the Underwriter's Laboratories National Safety Testing Agency for the U.S., acting as a partner with manufacturers to provide safe products to consumers through testing, certification and follow-up audits.

BARBERTON, Ohio – JohnDow Industries (JDI) recently announced that two more products in its Fuel Chief gas caddy line have achieved UL Listing status. With the addition of the FC-P30-UL and the FC-P30A-UL units, JDI says it continues to be the only manufacturer with UL Listings for gas caddies, making these units the “industry standard.”
 
The UL certification comes from the Underwriter’s Laboratories National Safety Testing Agency for the U.S., acting as a partner with manufacturers to provide safe products to consumers through testing, certification and follow-up audits.
 
Fuel Chief’s two 30-gallon caddies have been redesigned with the professional technician in mind. They are UL-listed professional units for the portable fuel storage and handling of gasoline, kerosene and diesel fuels. The FC-P30 includes a manual pump while the FC-P30A uses an air operated pump to siphon fuel to and from the vehicle being serviced.  
 
Features for both units include:
 
·      cart style design for easy portability and use
·      new molded front plastic panel cover
·      redesigned front enclosure for improved stability and utility
·      upgraded rear wheels with manual brake mechanism  
·      four-way control valve to select the flow  
·      new UL listed hoses and couplings
·      vacuum breaker to prevent back siphoning
 
Under OSHA regulation 29 CFR 1910.106, approved equipment must be tested, certified and listed by a national testing laboratory. This regulation makes it “the employer’s responsibility to protect its employees from workplace hazards by providing appropriate methods of hazard control.”  The FC-P30-UL and the FC-P30A-UL more than satisfy this regulation, according to JDI.
