It is generally allowed for LPG vehicles to drive and park in an underground parking space. In
some parking spaces there are restrictions imposed by the owner. The owner of the parking
space may do that by placing signs at the entrance. These signs have to be respected.
A
UTOGAS
Autogas or LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) is in most countries a combination of propane gas and
butane gas. LPG is produced during the winning and refining of oil and natural gas. In its natural state it
is gaseous but it is stored, under pressure, as a liquid in the LPG tank. LPG is a cleaner fuel than for
example petrol or diesel. The use of LPG helps to improve air quality. It is an odourless gas, but to make
it easier to identify for example a leak, an odour has been added to it.
THE PRINS SILVERLINE-2.0 LPG SYSTEM
The SilverLine-2.0 LPG system is based on the sequential injection of vaporous LPG into the engine.
‘Sequential’ means that the LPG injectors apply the LPG in a specific order or sequence which equals
the injection sequence of petrol injectors. The system also allows a more precise injection of the
mixture, thus complying with the tightened emission regulations. The SilverLine-2.0 LPG system is
equivalent to the original petrol injection technology and makes optimum use of the electronics already
present in your vehicle. With the Prins SilverLine-2.0 LPG system you will experience no difference
between driving using LPG or petrol.
PRINS SILVERLINE-2.0 LPG COMPONENTS
(Schematic overview of the system on page 1)
1.
Liquefied petroleum gas tank
The LPG tank takes most often the place of the spare wheel, in the boot or under the vehicle. The LPG is
stored under pressure in the storage tank. The tank is equipped with various safety appendages.
2.
Filler
The filling point is mounted on the outside of the car or beside the fuel-filling under the fuel filler flap
and is provided with a removable protective cover. This must be removed prior to refuelling. A non-
return valve prevents the LPG from flowing back after refuelling.
3.
LPG solenoid valves
There are mounted two solenoids in the system. One on the tank and one on the reducer.
When switching back to petrol mode, switching off the ignition or in case of an error the flow of LPG
will be cut off.
