High performance,low emissi
September 1st 2009 Calor says LPG continues to be
acknowledged as an environmentally
friendly and versatile fuel alternative
without compromising performance,
achieving a 95 per cent reduction in
NOx emissions compared to diesel.
As a high octane, cleaner burning
fuel, LPG's use also results in less
carbon build up on engines, less oil
contamination and less overall
engine wear, claims the firm.
While electric fork lift trucks
typically take around eight hours to
recharge, LPG trucks can be quickly
refuelled from a bulk tank, or by
changing a gas cylinder, allowing a
true 24/7 operation. As well as saving
time on refuelling, running a fleet on
LPG can save valuable storage space
with no need for a separate area
devoted to battery charging.
Ensuring safe operation, Calor
provides LPG refuelling training to
all new and existing customers on
request. The firm also provides a
'train the trainer' package.
Calor also performs a detailed
tank inspection at every fuel delivery.
Its 'Think Tank' telemetry system
automatically monitors the level of
LPG within the tank to ensure that a
customers never run out of gas. More articles from Calor Gas Ltd: |
