PCH has undergone rigorous field service tests in the past few years, and finally AAR inspectors successfully disassembled and tested the PCH valve samples of the field service tests.
The pressure tank trucks specified by the Department of Transportation (DOT)-105 and DOT-112 specifications are used to transport flammable, non-flammable or toxic liquefied compressed gas that must be transported under pressure. PCH is an important milestone for Kelso because it enables the company to seek a large number of untapped revenue opportunities in the rail pressure car market.

PCH is now fully qualified to distribute to the pressure car market in accordance with the orders of rail car customers.
Due to the unreliable performance of the current products used in the market today and the high maintenance costs, customers' attention, investment and demand for better PCH products have promoted the development of PCH.

This allows Kelso to maintain its brand’s growth market by creating new technology solutions for rail, road, and wilderness transportation operations. The successful completion of the AAR certification of the PCH is another important example of our commitment to develop unique products targeting previously unobtainable revenue opportunities. The PCH is the core of Kelso’s new pressure car kit program, which will include a new 2 " Angle valve (currently in field service trial), an overflow check valve, a thermometer well, a needle sampling valve and a magnetometer device. The availability of the pressure car kit will simplify the purchase process for pressure car customers, and Kelso provides it as a single supplier. Facts have proved that it is very effective and efficient for the management to commit to its strategic measures based on the design needs and engineering of specific stakeholders. Over time, the overall goal is to focus on the financial growth and performance of selling a larger portfolio of compliant products to serve the broader transportation market. "
