LPG Skid Cylinder Filling Systems

LPG Skid Cylinder Filling Systems

Harsan designs and manufactures LPG Skid Cylinder Filling Systems. These systems eliminate infrastructure installation costs entirely. Furthermore, their Plug & Play design means you simply connect the power line and turn on the switch. Consequently, safe production starts immediately. Additionally, we integrate all necessary equipment, items, and connections on a single mobile chassis.

Key Features of Harsan LPG Skid Systems

Plug & Play Ease of Use

Our system requires no complex assembly. In particular, it is ready to operate the moment you connect the power supply. Furthermore, its compact and portable structure means you transport it anywhere with ease. Consequently, setup time drops to near zero.

Wide Cylinder Compatibility

In particular, our system fills all LPG cylinders from 3 kg to 55 kg. Consequently, no additional equipment is necessary for different cylinder sizes. Furthermore, we offer two scale options. The first is Digital Scale and the second is Mechanical Scale. Additionally, scale quantities and tank capacity are fully customisable.

Integrated Pneumatic and Compressor System

The system includes an Air Compressor as standard. Furthermore, a full Pneumatic System comes integrated on every unit. Consequently, no additional equipment purchase is necessary. Additionally, filling nozzles are available in 1, 2, or 4 piece configurations. Moreover, flow capacity ranges from a minimum of 5 lit/min to a maximum of 50 lit/min.

Advanced Safety and Ex-Proof Equipment

CE Mark Standards and Ex-Proof Technology

Safety is our highest priority on every unit. Therefore, all electrical and electronic accessories carry the Ex-Proof rating. Furthermore, all equipment and machines conform to EU standards. Consequently, every unit holds CE or AD2000 certification. Additionally, an Ex-Proof Lamp comes standard on every system.

Active Safety Systems

We provide the following active safety systems as standard on every unit:

  • In particular, the Emergency Shut-Off System enables immediate intervention.
  • Furthermore, the precision Gas Detector (Gas Sensor) identifies leaks at an early stage.
  • Additionally, the Lighted Siren and Alarm Lamp deliver clear visual and audible warnings.
  • Consequently, all these systems together maintain the highest level of operational safety.

Tank Body and International Manufacturing Standards

Tank Design and Capacity Range

We design tanks in capacities from 5m³ to 100m³ and above. Furthermore, the tank body uses a horizontal cylindrical design with ellipsoidal dished ends. In particular, this combination delivers the most durable and safest structural configuration. Consequently, we offer the right solution for every project scale.

High-Strength Pressure Vessel Material

In particular, our tanks use special high-strength, fine-grained, normalised “P” series pressure vessel steel. This steel meets EN 10028-3 requirements. Furthermore, we test and verify all mechanical and metallurgical properties of the steel. Additionally, we use ellipsoidal dished heads with Stress Relieving treatment per applicable standards. Consequently, we guarantee the highest structural durability throughout the tank service life.

International Certification and Design Standards

We fully apply the following international design standards on every tank:

  • In particular, Harsan applies EN 12542 and EN 13445 / PED design standards.
  • Furthermore, Harsan holds AD2000 Merkblatter certification.
  • Additionally, Harsan meets ASME U or U2 stamp requirements.
  • Moreover, Harsan complies with CODAP and BS 5500 standards.
  • Consequently, every tank carries full CE marking and PED directive compliance.

Independent Inspection and Weld Quality

Our experienced engineering team manages all manufacturing and quality processes. Furthermore, a qualified independent inspection body supervises every production stage. In particular, our welders hold EN 9606-1 and ISO 14732 certification. Additionally, we use welding materials conforming to EN ISO 14171 and EN ISO 14341. Indeed, shell and cap welding follows SAW or SMAW + SAW methods. Moreover, nozzle welding follows GTAW or SMAW procedures. Consequently, certified NDT personnel test and control every welded joint.

Technical Specifications

Core Design Parameters

The following technical values apply to every Harsan LPG Skid tank. International standards verify each of these figures.

  • In particular, Tank Capacity: 1m³ to 100m³ — customisable per project.
  • Furthermore, Tank Class: Class 2 (Gas).
  • Additionally, Operating Temperature: –30°C to +70°C.
  • Moreover, Design Temperature: –20°C / +50°C.
  • Moreover, Design Pressure: 17.2 Bar.
  • Consequently, Test Pressure: 24.6 Bar — every tank undergoes hydrostatic testing.

Approved Products for Storage

  • In particular, UN 1965 — Hydrocarbon gas mixture.
  • Furthermore, UN 1978 — Propane.
  • Additionally, UN 1011 — Butane.
  • Moreover, UN 1075 — Fuel-oil gas, liquefied.

Test Methods and Quality Verification

We perform three critical tests on every tank. In particular, the first is the Leakage Test. Furthermore, the second is the Radiographic Test. Additionally, the third is the Ultrasonic Test. Certified NDT personnel carry out all three tests. Moreover, an authorised third party approves the hydrostatic test at 24.6 Bar. Consequently, every accessory connection then undergoes air pressure leak testing.

Sandblasting and Surface Coating Technology

SA 2.5 Grade Sandblasting

We clean all tank exterior surfaces before painting. In particular, we apply sandblasting per SIS 05 5900 at SA 2.5 grade. Consequently, we eliminate all corrosion risk before the coating stage begins.

Multi-Layer Coating System

We then apply a proven multi-layer coating system. In particular, we start with one layer of Shop Primer for anti-corrosion protection. Furthermore, we apply one layer of Epoxy Primer. Finally, we finish with one layer of Acrylic Final Paint. Consequently, we use only internationally proven, corrosion-resistant, long-lasting two-component paint products. Therefore, every tank carries a high-quality, homogeneous surface finish.

Consequently, every tank carries documented safety verification prior to dispatch.

In particular, we manufacture LPG tanks from fine-grained Carbon Steel “P” series pressure vessel material. This material meets a design pressure of 17.16 Bar. Consequently, we guarantee high mechanical strength and pressure resistance. Furthermore, we choose ellipsoidal KBS brand heads for all tank ends. These heads undergo Stress Relieving heat treatment. Therefore, we ensure the highest structural durability throughout the service life.

In particular, we clean all tank exterior surfaces using SA 2.5 grade Grid Sandblasting before painting. Consequently, we eliminate corrosion risk completely before the coating stage begins. Furthermore, we then apply a multi-layer paint system. First, we apply 1 coat of Shop Primer. Next, we apply a minimum of 2 coats of Epoxy Primer. Finally, we finish with 2 coats of Acrylic “Cabin Paint” for superior protection. Consequently, we guarantee long-lasting and homogeneous coating on every unit.
