How safe is CNG as a transportation fuel?
From health and safety point of view, CNG is as good as, or better than petrol and other alternative fuels. The following properties make it a desirable fuel: Natural gas is lighter than air. In the event of a leak it will rise and disperse in the atmosphere and not form puddles(as in petrol) or spread(As in LPG).
The ignition temperature of Natural Gas is much higher than petrol making it more difficult to ignite.
A high gas concentration in the air is needed to ignite CNG, not easy to achieve even in event of leak. Natural gas will not burn when its concentration in air is below 5% of above 15%.
Considerations with regard to health, in addition to reduction in air pollution, include the following: Natural gas is non toxic and cannot be accidentally ingested.
Natural gas is non-corrosive and non-carcinogenic. Does CNG kit require servicing?
CNG kit is safe and simple. It gives years of trouble free operation. It doesn’t require frequent servicing. Just as for all other fuels, it is advised to have routine services. An authorized person should be consulted for service. As per Gas Cylinder Rules, 1981, the cylinder should undergo hydro-stretch testing every 5 years to check pressure tolerance. Does CNG have any harmful effect on the engine?
Owing to CNG’s distinct features, it does not contaminate or dilute crankcase oil, giving a new lease of life to the engine. The absence of any lead content in CNG helps avoid lead fouling of plugs, thereby enhancing plug life. One of the important benefits of CNG is that upon entering the engine in the form of a gas(and not as a spray or mist like other fuels), it doesn’t disturb the presence of lubricating oil in the engine, and reduces chances of wear and tear. Why should I convert my vehicle to run on an alternative fuel?
There are various positive reasons to convert to an alternative fuel such as Reduced fuel costs and saving money.
Reuduction in environmentally damaging emissions.
Reduced maintenance costs. Reduced dependence on foreign oil. Are CNG( Compressed Natural Gas) the fuel?
CNG is a high-pressure gaseous fuel that always stays in gaseous form. Are CNG safer than petrol?
Natural gas(CNG) has one of the safest records of any transportation fuel. There are two primary of the natural gas vehicle storage system. As well as Like petrol LPG is flammable, but has a much narrower range of flammability. LPG or CNG, which should I choose?
Both are great choices BUT… LPG is stored as a liquid fuel so has greater density than CNG, providing much range.(48 to 50 ltr capacity of fuel tank) LPG is a low pressure fuel so conversion costs are usually less.
CNG is stored as a high pressure gaseous fuel and will provide limited range(10 to 12 kg), so if you are close to refueling center CNG is a good choice even with higher conversion costs because the fuel itself is very economical.
Application varies as per running area of your vehicle. What kind of mileage can I expect from LPG or CNG?
Typchandru021y with pneumatic LPG system you will see a reduction in mileage of less than 15% than your petrol mileage. With CNG you will typchandru021y get about 50% More of the mileage you to on petrol. How about power loss?
you will typchandru021y notice very little if any power loss on LPG On CNG you will normally experience a loss of about 5 to 7% but to avoid this power loss you can use a device called TAP( Timing Advance Processor).
Timing Advancers - The timing advancers allows to optimize the ignition for a good Gas running, while it keeps up the original configuration running on petrol. The result of this is a lower consumption and full power particularly during the acceleration. Will CNG hurt engine?
NO! In fact being on the light end of the hydrocarbon scale, there is almost no carbon in these fuels. Carbon is what turns your engine oil back! One big benefit of CNG is your oil will stay cleaner and requires less frequent changes, saving your time, money, oil and oil filters!
CNG go into you engine as vapor, there is no “ raw “ fuel entering the cylinders which washes the lubricating oil off the cylinder walls so the piston rings stay better, lubricated resulting in may CNG fueled engines lasting upto THREE TIMES LONGER than the same engine on petrol! How much maintenance will my CNG system require?
That’s one of the great features about LOVATO CNG kits, once installed and turned it, requires no maintenance other than particulate filter changes for years to come. At some point in the future( normally 3-5 years) you may want to change the diaphragms and gaskets to ensure “ like-new” performance and fuel economy. Are CNG harmful to the environment?
NO. CNG are some of the cleanest burning of all alternative fules. CNG vehicles produce 30-90% less carbon monoxide than gasoline(petrol) engines.
Sequential Gas Injection System
Lovato has successfully developed the 3rd Generation Alternate Fuel System for modern cars known as FAST, system has all of the attributes and benefits of the earlier system. In Addition it is super intelligent and it has the ability to inject gas in a truly sequential manner and it allow to fuel each Cylinder with optimized flow sand injection lines by means of an injection common rail. The injection time given by the original cars ECU is used as main parameter in the definition of the injection tiem in CNG mode.
Stable:
FAST guarantee long term stability in power, emissions and easy diving equivalent to petrol operation FAST is introduce in India for the first time by Lovato for better and smooth performance in higher range and Euro IV segments of Indian Vehicle.
FAST is a sequential gas injection fully computerized technology and matching Euro IV standards. It is one of the most popular system in European market.
Economical advantage by the use of signifaicant percentage of CNG.
No Modification on Engine operation.
No Power loss, No Backfire – Safe Working Condition.
Environment benefit with reduction of pollution emission.
Fully computerized ECU controlled, world best system.
