Burg BPA – the type series of the Dutch tank and silo trailer builder Burg: 134 versions with B.P.A. codes, unladen weights 2,800 to 19,200 kg, permissible gross weights 11,300 to 45,000 kg
BPA is one of the type series of the Dutch trailer builder Burg, best known for tank and silo semi-trailers. In the register, the series consistently appears with the code B.P.A. or BPA, followed by two number groups and, in part, a letter code such as ACXXX, ORNXX, RGZXX or TCZXX – recognisably a combination of an axle-load or payload figure and an internal equipment or variant identifier whose exact meaning Burg does not publish.

The register lists 134 versions with unladen weights from 2,800 to 19,200 kg and permissible gross weights from 11,300 to 45,000 kg. Lengths are recorded for 65 of the 134 vehicles and range from 8,080 to 14,260 mm, width for all 134 versions from 2,200 to 2,600 mm.
Within the Burg range, BPA stands alongside series with tipper and flatbed bodies as the designation for tank and silo transport; the narrow width span of just 400 mm points to a largely standardised vehicle width across the series. As semi-trailers with a kingpin, these vehicles fall into class O4 for trailers above 10 tonnes, which need a category CE licence to tow.
For a used tank or silo trailer of this series, check the tightness of the vessel, manhole covers and outlet fittings, corrosion on vessel supports and the frame, the condition of axles and the EBS braking system, and the function of the air suspension. For silo versions, the condition of the unloading and compressor system also matters; a complete inspection history is important, since parts for the BPA series are usually only available through the manufacturer itself.

What to check before buying
- Search the frame and welds at the axle mounts — that is where cracks start.
- Check the brakes and the last inspection in the papers.
- Work the gross weight against the towing vehicle before buying.
- Compare the chassis number with the papers.
- Look at the floor, cover or body from the inside — rust does not show from outside.
