Alfa Laval inert gas solutions for LPG carriers Protecting efficiency and product Time is money when it comes to transporting liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Being able to inert the tanks on the voyage to and from dry dock – or to do it on the spot when tank inspections or repair needs arise – is a valuable proposition. Alfa Laval understands the importance of availability, which is why we put so much effort into securing it. When it comes to inert gas systems, a ­ vailability is a key focus of our system design. The Alfa Laval Smit LPG system is specifically developed to ensure safety without costly and unnecessary delays, which means you can handle tighter ­ elivery schedules and increasing d demand. By offering more capacity for the footprint, the Smit LPG system lets you do the inerting faster and get to the work you profit from. A compact match for your needs Regardless whether your product is r ­efrigerated or pressurized, the Smit LPG system can be fully adapted to your v ­ essel’s requirements. Oxygen level, pressure, dew point and more can be optimized to meet your needs. At the same time, the modular configuration of the Smit LPG system means c a ­ onsiderably reduced footprint. You pay only for the components you need, a ­ chieving a smaller system at a lower cost. The horizontal installation makes it easy to perform inspection and maintenance. Completely soot-free Due to the relatively low investment cost, most larger LPG carriers purchase combustion-based inert gas systems. The gas needs to be not only dry, however, but also free from soot. Maintaining product quality is especially important for LPG, since it often serves as a base for plastics, medicines and other specialized commodities. This is why the unique Ultramizing® c ­ ombustion system is at the heart of every Smit LPG system. The Ultramizing system ensures inert gas with low o ­ xygen levels, low NOX emissions and no soot, thanks to special steam-­ atomizing and vaporizing burners. Quality throughout Quality is also assured by the Smit LPG sprayer systems, which are designed to avoid the creation of salt crystals from evaporating water. The dryers are laid out in such a way that the produced inert gas has a stable temperature and a dew point that is always below what is requested.

Quick, easy touch control Alfa Laval Touch Control is an integral part of the Smit LPG system, providing a complete graphical overview and quick access to functions and data. Any aspect of the system can be reached in just two touches of the screen. Design Combustion + drying Capacity range 3,000 – 25,000 m3/hr Pressure 0.3 – 0.4 bar(g) Fuel Type DMA, DMB, DMZ Typical dew point -45°C after expansion to atmospheric To ensure availability, two touchscreens are delivered in a redundant solution: one on the main control panel, the other on the dryer. Both have full options. Likewise, the Smit LPG...
