It is clear that LPG is safe ….. when used in vehicles.
- LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas), is an inflammable petroleum derivative that is obtained by mixing Butane gas and Propane gas in certain amounts by liquefying under high pressure.
- At current prices, it is roughly half the cost of super petrol.
- It is available at all the filling stations in Turkey.
- ECE-R 67 or TSE tank designs, available in spare wheel or cylindrical forms, weighing 40 liters to 60 liters. The body must be tested at least 45 to 105 bar with a thickness of 4.5 mm. This is done using x-ray film.
- At +20 oC, the internal pressure of a fully filled tank (maximum of 80% can be filled using an automatic filling system) is approximately 4.5 atmospheres. This is just 10% of the tank’s test pressure.
- Excessive LPG flow from the tanks for any reason (breakage or corrosion of the copper pipes, etc.The tank has a leakage current valve that cuts off gas flow to the outlet.
- LPG is free from the same wastes as gasoline, which are formed through combustion. Soot, soot and other pollutants can also not be found in LPG. in the engine. It does not happen. This is why engine oil, spark plugs, and engine oil have a longer service life and does not cause air pollution.
- A vehicle converted to LPG will not have any effect on its gasoline system. The conversion to LPG does not affect the gasoline system of a vehicle. However, the vehicle can be switched from gasoline to gasoline by pressing a single button (commutator).
- A single valve can be closed to completely disable the LPG system if desired.
- LPG vehicles have a longer life expectancy than gasoline vehicles in terms of engine oil and replacement times. Clean burning makes it a good choice for improving engine life. These fuel-savings can also be used to create an independent economy.
- LPG fuel has a maximum reduction of between 2 and 3 percent in nominal power. LPG fuel has a lower volume calorific value than gasoline. This is why the nominal power of a vehicle using it is between 2-3% and 3%. It is a disadvantage but it has the important advantage of not causing engine knocking (detonation), thanks to its 10% Octane rating.
- It is simple and doesn’t require many parts so it is very easy to maintain.
