Natural gas vehicle systems with G-Stor™ technology
A Luxfer offers a complete line of compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel systems for transit and shuttle buses.
Luxfer offers a complete line of compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel systems for transit and shuttle buses. Available in a number of longitudinal and transversal configurations, these ultra-lightweight systems operate at service pressures up to 250 bar (3,600 psi). Luxfer CNG systems not only contribute to cleaner emissions compared to traditional diesel fuel systems, they also provide an operational cost benefit due to lower fuel and maintenance expenses.
Lightweight Type 3 carbon composite cylinders
- Up to 70% lighter than comparable steel cylinders.
- Aluminum liners exhibit high levels of corrosion resistance.
- Cylinders are non-permeable.
- Fast filling capability.
More than 10 000 Luxfer systems are in active service around the globe.
