Elmec designed the fuel system with the end user in mind. The conversion can be accomplished in-situ without having to remove the engine. The main fuel manifold is a two piece assembly, allowing on site installation. Elmec’s fuel nozzles bodies also are unique. The pepperpot tips can be ordered for natural gas or propane fuel. Additionally, the thread size will accommodate the OEM tips as well giving the customer purchasing flexibility. Integral
to any on site conversion is the ability to maneuver around various
engine mounting configurations and minimize the necessity of moving
off-engine components. Elmec incorporated the flexible fuel lines
into its design to help accomplish this.
![]() Elmec Gas Certified Flexible fuel Lines Prior to delivery each fuel conversion kit is flow tested to ensure uniformity of gas supply to the engine.
![]() Elmec’s NG System Test Bench Flexibility is also the keynote of the main Fuel Valve Skid. Elmec selected the valve manufactured by Continental Controls Corp of San Diego, California. The valve is programmable to allow changes in acceleration algorithms to suit the customer’s needs. The valve train feeds the main fuel manifold through another flexible gas line allowing for location options to suit the application. All
the components attached to the fuel system are Explosion Proof and
all flexible lines are CSA Gas certified. In addition all removable
fittings have been micro drilled to be standard wire locked in place.
