Module 8: LNG Vehicle Systems and Safety Practices

             Pressure Control                                     ▪  Supplies vaporized LNG to heat exchanger when
             (Economizer) Valve                                      excess head pressure exists in tank
                                                                  ▪  Controls flow toward engine
                                                                  ▪  Closes at ~125 psi


















             Internal Check       ▪  Located inside plumbing manifold on tank
             Valve                ▪  Provides 2 psi back pressure
                                  ▪  Assists Pressure Control Regulator in rapidly
                                     reducing tank pressure










             Engine Coolant Heat
             Exchanger




                                  ▪  Uses heat from engine coolant for warming
                                  ▪  Warms LNG, changes state from liquid to gas

             LNG Over-Pressure    ▪  Regulates maximum pressure to engine fuel
             Regulator               inlet
                                  ▪  Typically set at 125 psi
                                  ▪  May be externally adjustable
