Alfa Laval Smit LNG/LPG is a dry inert gas generator with low pressure and low dew-point, not jeopardizing on safety and environment with highest degree of availability and operational flexibility.
The most complex inert gas generators are installed on LNG carriers, where very dry inert gas is required. Smit dry inert gas generators from Alfa Laval, have integrated controls and consist of four main components: generator, cooler, chiller and dryer unit.
The cooler, which has gas contact surfaces of SUS 316 for lifetime service, takes up minimal space due to the low-temperature output of the generator. Using water from the chiller, it stabilizes the heat radiation in all conditions.
The dryer unit is redundant and provides additional security. The entire installation is horizontal and allows easy maintenance, although maintenance is seldom required.
