Customization

Our LNG cryogenic vessels can have different capacities, diameter up to 770 mm, and can be customized according to specific customer requirements.

ECE ONU R110 Regulation permit to qualify minor design changes through a reduced test programme.

ECE R 110 passed test

In order to comply with ECE R110 regulations all products have to comply with the following tests:

HOLD-TIME TEST

Performed to demonstrate that measured hydrostatic pressure at 120 or more hours is less than nominal primary relief valve pressure setting of the tank.

DROP TEST

- 9 m drop test of the fuel tank on the most critical area of the tank
- 3 m drop test on the piping end.

BONFIRE TEST

Designed to demonstrate the fire protection system efficiency, tank must resist at temperature at least 590 °C without burst and not exceeding maximum inner design pressure.

PRESSURE TEST

Inner vessel is examined under the test pressure conditions Ptest = 1.3 (WP + 0.1) [MPa], maintained for at least 30 seconds without evidence of leakage, visible distortion or other defect.
