CNG Station 101: Parts

October 12, 2020

Your CNG station relies on a variety of parts to function properly, and having a basic understanding of these parts can help your station operate smoothly on a regular basis. Read below to learn more about the important elements that make up your CNG fueling station.

Compressor

A CNG compressor is the heart and soul of your CNG station. This unit helps transport the natural gas from its storage container to your fleet by compressing the gas to its necessary pressurized intervals. Because it offers such a large responsibility to your station, it’s important to have the compressor inspected to ensure it’s working properly. Should you have an issue with your compressor, an experienced CNG expert can supply and install the right CNG compressor part needed to get your operation moving.

Dispenser

Whether you fuel your own fleet or have a public CNG station, having a functional dispensing system is important. Without this, your fleet will not be able to receive the compressed natural gas it relies on to get moving. There are a variety of dispenser options available, so pick the one that makes sense for your specific fueling needs.

Dryer/Filtration

The dryer/filtration system helps vehicles receive their fuel. These units dehydrate the gas and can even prevent freezing. Plus, they allow the gas to run from the storage compartment to the vehicle, so you want to ensure you have a working filtration system at all times to keep debris and other particles out of the fuel source.

Nozzles, Hoses and Fittings

Every facet of your CNG station has smaller pieces that help it work, and these parts are just as important as the whole unit. When you’re constructing your CNG station, choose the nozzles, hoses and fittings that make sense for your specific needs and uses.
