A high number of octanes (115), no harmful additives, no sulphurous products and perfect combustion. These systems can be installed on almost all brands of all vehicles, and filling stations have been created to refuel the tanks installed in cars. LPG systems need to take up little room, and be as safe and as functional as petrol systems. This safety is ensured by the construction systems used, the quantity of materials used and the controls carried out before, during and after construction.

 

 

The system is built by placing the storage tanks inside a reinforced concrete formwork that is partially or totally installed below ground. The pumps are placed outside the tank and can be positioned on top of the tank itself or adjacent to the tank containing formwork.
Thanks to the special priming mechanism on this type of pump, they can draw the LPG directly from the top of the tank through a drawing pipe that reaches right to the bottom of the tank. This is a simple, safe installation that also guarantees high reliability, easy and cheap maintenance and low installation costs.

    

Following the issue of the new Italian Presidential Decree D.P.R. no. 340 of 24/10/03, the need has arisen to modernise all existing LPG systems to bring them in line with the new safety standards foreseen in Chapter III of the same decree.
External negative head pumps can be used successfully also to modernise old systems and ensure that they comply with the Italian Presidential Decree D.P.R. no. 340/03, as in this way it is possible to fully eliminate the old underground pump room, by using one or more negative head pumps located on the top of the formwork and above the level of the sand which is used to eliminate the old pump room. This is a simple, safe installation that also guarantees high reliability, easy and cheap maintenance and low modernisation costs.
