New Propane Autogas LPG Evacuation Pump for Tanks
Blossman Services has introduced what it bills as the first AutoGas LPG Evacuation Pump of its kind in the United States, designed to remove propane from autogas tanks when service or repairs are required.
It can evacuate a Gen 3 OEM, fuel pump equipped LPI vehicle tank filled with 44 useable gallons in 1.5 hours to zero PSI tank pressure without venting any propane into the atmosphere.
The net result is that as fleets increasingly turn green, Autogas fleets and trained autogas technicians now have a service tool available that allows them to safely work on their vehicles on their own timelines.
A fleet may transfer fuel from the vehicle fuel tank being serviced to: another autogas vehicle; a refueling station or a separate LPG storage tank. A few additional details:
- Completely air operated reducing any ignition sources for safety;
- Rugged pneumatic wheels that allow ease of movement over rough, off-road surfaces;
- A visual flow indicator that allows a user to visually monitor the transfer of propane during the evacuation process;
- Optional vapor flaring mode to allow flaring by trained propane professionals and autogas mechanics; and
- Fuel may be returned back into the tank after service with no loss of propane.
