Clean Fuel:
The fuel used to operate the P-5050 TEG must be clean and dry. See Technical
Specifications section for full gas specifications. If dirty fuel is anticipated then a customer
supplied in-line fuel filter is recommended.
Low Temperature:
Regulator freeze-off can be minimized by limiting, i.e. regulating, the
incoming supply pressure to 138 kPa (20 psig). When using propane (C
3
H
8
) at temperatures
below -30ºC (-22ºF) special consideration must be given to the low vapour pressure of the
fuel.
5.6.3 Propane/LPG Gas Supply Considerations
If remote Propane/LPG gas supply system is used, consider the following:
Location:
Propane/LPG tanks and cylinders must be located outdoors in a well ventilated
area, at least 3 meters (10 ft) from the TEG unless directed otherwise by the local authority
having jurisdiction. .
Mounting:
Each tank or cylinder must be set on a firm, level, water proof base, located on
consolidated ground at grade level. The base must extend at least 300mm (1 ft) from all
sides of the tank or cylinder, must be designed to support the weight of the tank or cylinder
and is subject to approval by the local authority having jurisdiction.
Connection:
Tanks and cylinders are to be equipped with flexible connections to offset any
movement affecting the piping or tubing.
