LNG Dispenser
Chart LNG Dispensers allow for safe and
reliable dispensing of LNG into the vehicle tank. The dispensers are
housed in standard gasoline style dispenser units, making them aesthetically
suitable for a wide range of installations, including island mounting.
Basic Construction
The Chart LNG Dispenser is designed for
fueling LNG powered vehicles at rates exceeding 120 liters per minute. The
dispenser uses the dry-hose method for measuring and is able to accurately
measure small batches of product dispensed. Due to its unique construction,
no cool-down delays occur prior to fueling. The LNG dispenser is accessible
from both sides and the back for ease of maintenance. Each dispenser is equipped
with flexible, durable and lightweight dispensing and vent hoses. The vent
hose is equipped with a female Macro Technologies fitting (MVE vent connection).
Easy to Operate
Chart dispensers are very simple to operate. Simply push the
green start button to begin the fully automated fueling process. Each dispenser
is equipped with a large, easy to read LCD display. the display gives price
per unit, units dispensed and total amount of sale.
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
• Weights and Measures approved
• Stainless steel construction
• Relief valves and gas purge lines are plumbed safely
to station vent stack
• Vapor return vented to vent stack for efficient vapor
management
• Vent and dispenser hoses equipped with breakaways designed
to prevent damage to dispenser in the event of a drive away
• Standard E-Stop (Emergency Stop) button for use in the
event of emergencies
• Aesthetically pleasing design (similar to gasoline station
pumps)
• Automatic push button controls
Easy operation, user friendly control
|
Chart’s patented LNG dispenser can be used legally for public
access dispensing of LNG. The dispenser allows for accurate measurement of
small volumes of LNG of varying composition to be transferred to small cryogen ic
storage vessels, such as Chart’s onboard vehicle tanks.
A proven design with years of rigorous
testing ensures the long-term reliability and stability of Chart’s Weights
and Measures approved dispenser. The many safety features built into the dispenser
combined with its auto mated fueling process provide for a safe and simple
fueling operation. A high hose dispenser housing, similar to a standard gasoline
dispenser, provides for easy installation adjacent to LNG storage or on separate
fueling islands, and eliminates the need for clumsy hose reels and retractors.

LNG BULK TRANSPORT
LNG Delivery System
The model SR-603 LNG tank car is a DOT-113C120W tank car optimized for carrying
maximum payloads of LNG.
It is also suitable for transporting liquid ethylene. It complies with all
Association of American Railroads
(AAR) and US Department of Transportation (US DOT) regulations.
The model SR-603 is a stub sill tank car — the sills are integral to the
outer tank, and the outer tank carries the significant rail loads from one
end of the car to the other, as well as supporting the weight of the product
and the inner tank. The inner tank is made of durable T-304 stainless steel.
The outer tank is made of fine grain carbon steel. The inner tank typically
rated at 75 psig.
Chart has a plan to offer 90 psig inner vessels for improved strength and
hold time with no payload loss.
The model SR-603 has withstood the test of time and miles on North America’s
railroads in liquid ethylene service.
Chart’s model SR-602 is volume optimized for LNG amid the constraints of
railroad clearance (Plate ‘C’), Gross
Rail Load (GRL) and the Federal Railroad Administration’s (FRA) 34,500 gallon
limit for flammable products.
LNG capacity is ~30,680 gallons or up to 142,500 lbs of LNG.
(The composition, and thus the density, of LNG can vary 5—10%).
The control piping and instruments are located in spacious cabinets on each
side of the car at the center. The functional piping is duplicated on each
side; the safety devices are split — rupture discs on one side; safety relief
valves on the other side. Cabinets, piping, valves and instruments are virtually
all stainless steel for added durability.
Valves have fire resistant packing.
All routine operation and maintenance for the control piping and instrumentation
is accessible from ground level.
The model SR-603 has a high capacity pressure building coil made with stainless
steel piping
and aluminum fins for optimal durability and heat capacity.

SCOPE OF SUPPLY
Chart complies with all US DOT requirements in the design and construction
of its SR-603 LNG tank cars.
We are certified as a Class ‘A’facility by the Association of American Railroads
(AAR) to manufacture, repair, alter, convert or qualify tank cars. We are
also certified by the AAR’s QA committee. Chart is registered with the DOT.
DOT requirements for transporting LNG are found in Title 49 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (49 CFR), part 1 72.101, Table of Hazardous Materials
and Special Provisions; part 173.319, Cryogenic Liquids in Tank Cars; and
part 179.400, Specification for Cryogenic Liquid Tank Car Tanks.

LNG Semi-Trailer
Highway Delivery
System
LNG Delivery System
The model AT-506 transport is a vacuum-insulated, cryogenic semi-trailer
designed specifically for transporting
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) over US highways.
LNG can vary in its composition, but is usually at least 93%
methane. The model AT-506 exceeds the requirements of an MC-338
highway trailer.
The model AT-506 is a horizontal vacuum-insulated tank composed
of an ‘inner’ pressure vessel and a structural frame/vacuum vessel ‘outer’jacket.
The outer jacket is made from light weight, thin gage carbon and stainless
steel, and the inner vessel is a 70 psig, ASME Code stamped pressure vessel
made from light weight aluminum. Chart’s AT-500 series trailers are the time-tested,
industry standard for LNG highway trailers in the US.
Chart’s model AT-506 offers the largest LNG capacity in the
industry. With a gross volume of 13,000 gallons, payloads of up to 12,250
gallons may be obtained.1 A typical 80,000 pound GVW arrangement
would have a 15,000 pound tractor, Chart’s 24,000 pound model AT-506 and
would carry 41,000 pounds2 of LNG. With a lighter weight tractor,
and/or where higher GVWs are allowed, the model AT-506 has the available
capacity to carry additional payload.
The control piping and instruments are located in a spacious,
wrap-around style, rear piping cabinet. Maximum use is made of the available
space at the end of the trailer to make the control piping easy to operate,
access and maintain. Use of a drop-down piping cabinet deck allows for waist-high
connection of all three fill connectors (bottom fill/drain, alternate top
fill and vapor return). The model AT-506 has a very large capacity pressure
building coil, and coil piping, that allow off loading by pressure transfer
at rates up to 300 GPM.
1 Based on US DOT fill density limits; 43,360 lbs of LNG = 12,250 gal @3.54
lbs/gal; 15 psig relief device setting.
2 11,582 gallons @3.54 lbs/gal
|
SCOPE OF SUPPLY
Chart complies with all US DOT requirements
in the design and construction of its model AT-506 LNG trailer. We are registered
with the DOT and employ Design Certifying Engineers and Registered Inspectors.
DOT requirements for transporting LNG by highway are found in Title 49 of
the Code of Federal Regulations (49CFR): part 1 72.101, Table of Hazardous
Materials and Special Provisions; part 173.318, Cryogenic Liquids in Cargo
Tanks; and part 178.338, Insulated Cargo Tank (MC-338). The inner vessel
is designed to meet or exceed the requirements for an ASME Code, Section
VIII, Division 1 pressure vessel; the internal and external piping is in
accordance with the requirements of ASME/ANSI B31.3 Piping Code; and Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) are adhered to for all trailer automotive
functions — running gear, lights, brakes, etc.
Options:
• Flow Meter System
• Transfer Hose(s)
