PETROL-LPG
LPG systems for petrol cars
Afroautogas offer a wide range of LPG car systems dedicated to the newer vehicles, and the older ones as well. Elpigaz LPG installations always fulfil rigorous quality and technical requirements despite of cars’ age, which it is assembled in.
Complete branded Elpigaz installations guarantee proper working in vehicles, which are assembled in.
The principle of operation of a piston combustion engine is simple and has not been changed since the beginning of the automotive industry. In a low-pressure (gasoline) engine, the fuel-air mixture fed into the cylinder chamber is compressed, and then a spark occurs on the spark plug. The piston is then actuated and the crank mechanism not connected to it sets the crankshaft in rotation. This movement through the remaining mechanisms that drive the car’s wheels.
The gas fuel supply does not interfere with the operation of the engine. Gasoline is fed to the engine via injection. The gaseous fuel is transported in a volatile form to the intake manifold and then to the secondary chamber (cylinder) in an alternative gas-air form. The mixture is introduced into the cylinder through suction valves.
Gas is injected in large quantities for control purposes, i.e. available to everyone who is independent. This system allows for very detailed gas administration for each cylinder. Gas fuel injection, which starts the engine, allows for maximum optimization of its operating parameters.

LPG toroidal tanks
LPG tanks are used for storing the fuel mixture of liquid propane and butane for engines in cars, delivery vehicles, lorries and buses. Toroidal tanks are the most common tank type used in car gas systems. Typical toroidal tanks are installed in the boot in the spare wheel well or outside the vehicle, under the chassis.
Car designs change towards maximum use of space and lowering weight along with increasing range after refuelling. Our tanks meet these expectations.
Toroidal tanks branded Elpigaz are available in the wide range of capacity (liters).
