components that need to be prepared for vehicles that want to switch from BBM to CNG -disway.id—
JAKARTA, JAMBIEKSPRES.CO.ID-CNG Fuel or Compressed Natural Gas has been eagerly awaited by the public.
CNG, which is supposed to replace Pertalite BBM, is said to be cheaper than Pertalite BBM.
Natural gas fuel costs IDR 3,000 per litre, compared to Pertalite, which costs IDR 10,000 per litre.
Also, the quality of the CNG fuel is equivalent to Pertamax Turbo fuel.
However, what is more important right now if it is really present in the community that needs to be properly observed regarding CNG is the installation of CNG pipes.
Because the CNG pressure reaches 200 bar and is much higher than LGV which only has a pressure between 8-12 bar.
Below are 13 rules for installing CNG tanks on vehicles, including:
1. The installation of the CNG tank must not place excessive strain on the tank.
2. The device for positioning the tank cannot be welded to the tank.
3. The installation should not affect the weakening of the chassis structure of gas-powered motor vehicles.
4. Use nuts and bolts with high torque, and they must be locked or pinned and hooked after tightening.
5. Tank supports shall be designed and constructed with strength capable of withstanding static forces of at least 20 (twenty) times the weight of a full tank.
As regards the position, the position of the tank is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle and the resistance is 8 (eight) times the weight of a full tank for a tank transversal to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle.
6. Details of the calculation of the power of the tank placement device according to the vehicle design factor table.
