Step 1
Liquid LPG enters the
vaporizer via an inlet
control valve.
Step 2
The control valve’s
inverted, metal-tometal seat provides
durability while
preventing debris from
collecting on the
valve seat.
Step 3
Liquid LPG enters the
steel heat exchanger
tubes cast into the
aluminum body. The
steel tubes provide
5
a secure pressure
boundary and enhance
heat transfer.
Step 4
Self-regulating heaters
replenish energy
extracted during the
vaporization process.
The unique design
prevents overheating
and uses NO
temperature sensors,
relays, or similar
control devices.
Step 5
Accepts AC or DC
power.
Step 6
The temperature of the
LPG vapor exiting the
vaporizer is monitored
by a temperature
sensitive bulb. This
bulb provides feedback
to the inlet control
valve.
IDEALLY SUITED FOR:
Step 7
The inlet control valve
modulates the flow
of liquid LPG into the
vaporizer relative to the
vapor exit temperature
to ensure complete
vaporization occurs.
