Dual Fuel Kit

Retrofitted Dual Fuel Kits

GasTech’s Dual Fuel Kit comprises special kits that can be retrofitted on existing high-speed diesel engines, allowing the two fuels to function in tandem. During Dual Fuel operation, a reduced quantity of diesel fuel acts as the ignition pilot for the air-gas mixture. The methane-rich gas mix replaces a significant proportion of diesel to produce equivalent heat energy during combustion in the cylinder.

Even after converting to a Dual Fuel operation, the engine can continue to operate with diesel as the primary fuel. However, it cannot be converted to a ‘gas only’ operation.

ProGMS

GasTech’s ProGMS is a modern Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) system that allows for remote monitoring of the genset, including Dual Fuel Operation. It works by acquiring data, which is then stored on-premises or in the Cloud to produce analytical insights over a specific period. 

ProGMS provides real-time visualisation as well as extensive operational analytics based on historical data.
