Natural Gas Filling Stations

General

Our natural gas filling stations ar adapted to local conditions as well as to customer requirements. Our largest filling stations, which include a combination of several “GASVECTOR“ compressors, are able to refuel up to 600 busses per night. The smallest version “GASVECTORCITY“ is intended for simultaneous refueling of maximum two vehicles.

Our advantage lies in the flexibility to meet diverse demands!

The “GASVECTOR“ compressors including requested additional equippment can be installed in an industrial container or stationary inside a local building as needed.

Filling Stations with low capacity - GASVECTOR CITY

This version is basically made  WITH and WITHOUT integrated dispenser.

Primary application:

Gas stations with smaller capacity expectations (up to 250 m³ / h) for public and in-house applications. The GASVECTOR CITY variant is characterized by a compact and economical solution.

Filling Stations with medium capacity - GASVECTOR

Typical example of a "factory-made unit".

In a container (custom-made with noise and climate monitoring), all required components are usually integrated:
    

  • Natural Gas Compressor - Capacity from 1000 up to 1 900 m³ / h
  • Pressure storage
  • Dryer (optional as required)

With a GASVECTOR variant, usually up to 6 fueling points can be operated (for example: 3 St natural gas dispensers with 2 hoses each).

 
High performance gas stations - GASVECTOR TWIN

The special feature of the GASVECTOR TWIN variant lies in its flexibility:

  • Up to two compressors in one container
  • Two containers coupled together and put together to form a system
  • Typical applications for the GASVECTOR TWIN solution are larger capacity gas stoves: from 1,900 to 4,000 m3 / h or for applications with up to 10 natural gas pumps
CNG Dispenser

FAS CNG Dispenser (Standard)

In the last couple of years, at FAS we designed and constructed many thousands dispenser ans filling stations. Those plants are being maintained and checked until today by us to guarantee our customers an error-free operaion.
