SHUT-OFF MECHANISM ACTIVATED

Earthquake-actuated Shut-off System Liquefied Petroleum Gas for Liquefied LPG or Tank Supply Storage Tank Outlet Inlet - To limit the amount of the exhaust gas when the blow valve operates - To refill the pressure into the sensor impulse line “Normally Close” Needle Valve Incorporated with Master Valve Master Valve Orifice Model: IV-215BE Fusible Valve “Normally Open” Valve Sensor Impulse Line Air: 0.3 ~ 0.35 MPa Regulator for Sensor Impulse Line Source Set at 0.3 ~ 0.35 MPa of Pressure Air Compressor etc Tank Air Actuated Emergency “Normally Close” Manual operation valve Shut off Valve for emergency shut-off Model: CV Series Blow Valve Pump for Liquid Liquid LPG LPG Seismic Sensor for Storage Tank Model: CP-250B or CP-400B

WHY DO WE NEED THE PA SYSTEM?

PA System (Permanent Construction Type) Gas Power Generation of Electricity Feeder Gas Feeder Gas Feeder Gas Electricity (Propane) (Propane) (Propane) Lightning Computer Server For Emergency Use For Normal Use Propane Air City Gas (Mixed Gas) Electricity Air conditioning Gas Air Conditioning (Gas Heat Pump)

WHAT IS THE PA SYSTEM? Propane gas Air Mi Mixi xing Gas with combustion characteristics similar to Natural Gas

How does it function? Feeder Gas (LPG) Shut-off Valve UPSO/OPSO First Stage Controller Regulator Open-Close Open-Close Valve Valve Controller Venturi Mixer Over Pressure Cushion Tank Shut-off Valve Second Stage Regulator

Introduction of PA series ・ 8m 3 /h type Used in buildings, such as two-family houses or restaurants, where more gas is consumed than average households. Cylinder cover is optional.

Introduction of PA series ・ 30m 3 /h type Used in institutions, such as hospitals or nursing homes.

Installation Example 1. Providing hot meals in evacuation center Tokyo, Japan ： Large Cooker ・ Introduced our PA to their food service facilities at 44 elementary and junior high school ・ Built an environment to provide hot meals for affected people. Quick fitting is able to be disconnected without tools.

Installation Example 2. Backup of Electricity in a Restaurant Kanagawa, Japan ： Combined Use of Cogeneration System The restaurant usually uses electricity and hot water supplied by cogeneration system. It concludes an agreement with the city and will be an evacuation center in disasters. So it needs a backup of electricity.

Installation Example 3. Backup of Gas Air Conditioner in an office Osaka, JAPAN: Combined Use of Gas heat pump(GHP) Even if city natural gas is not available in emergencies, they can use gas air conditioning. This installation example also installed in nursing home and disaster prevention base.

Achievements of PA in disasters Applications in the Great East Japan Earthquake Shiogama Ishimaki Sendai ・ Civilian hospital: 2 ・ Prefectual Housing: 5 ・ Nursing Home: 11 ・ Medical Center: ・ City Housing: 3 ・ Hospital: 3 １ ・ Area Supply: 3 ・ Disability Aid Center: 3 ・ Workers Camp: ・ Senior High School: 1 1 ・ Hotel: 1 Kamai aishi hi Temporar orary suppl plies es to 7,500 0 househol eholds ds: 35

KAMAICHI CITY In Kamaishi city, we utilize our past experience of calorific value changing and temporary supply was made by PA. Only 17 days after the disaster of 3.11, 7,000 households returned back to normal. Supplying gas by using PA with the existing supply piping was the first successful trial ever. This was broadcasted by NHK news.
