 What are Vaporizer/Mixer Systems ?

L
PG vapor from a vaporizer or a storage tank is not directly compatible with natural gas and can therefore not be used for standby or backup purposes.
LPG vapor/air blenders blend LPG vapor with air to produce a gas mixture that is directly compatible and interchangeable with natural gas. This allows

A
users to switch back and forth between natural gas supplied by their utility company, and their own, LPG based backup fuel, without having to change
the setup of any of their process or heating equipment, such as burners, boilers, heater, dryers, kilns, drum ovens, etc. The LP/air blend is often referred to as
Synthetic Natural Gas, or SNG.
The vaporizer/mixer systems described in this brochure are designed for intermittent or continuous use as NatGas backup systems. They are the
combination of a horizontal water bath vaporizer (see brochure “Water Bath LPG Vaporizers”) and a Hallberg Venturi Mixer (see brochure “LPG Vapor/Air
Mixing Systems - Venturi Type), generating gas pressures of up to 8 psi (0.55 bar; optional: 15 psi, 1 bar) without the need of compressed air supply. The
absence of a compressor makes these systems very simple and economical to operate. .

Liquid LPG from a storage tank is transferred to the vaporizer. Typically, a

liquid LPG transfer pump is installed in the liquid supply line, keeping liquid
pressure at approximately 100 psi (7 bar; higher for “High-Pressure
Venturis”). After vaporization of the LPG in the vaporizer, vapor enters the
inlet header of the mixing system and then passes through a pressure
regulator. From there, the pressure-adjusted vapor flows through the high
precision nozzle and the Venturi tube section of the HVS into the surge
(accumulator) tank. While the vapor passes through the tube section, the Typical Graphic TrendLine screen. This The alarm history screen is most

 Who is Alternate Energy Systems, Inc. ?
After working for other manufacturers of LPG vaporizers and LPG / air systems for several years, John E. Hallberg
founded Alternate Energy Systems, Inc. in 1974 in Peachtree City, located just 20 minutes south-west of the Atlanta
airport. He successfully set out to design and manufacture products which were superior to those of his competitors. As
a result, AES became very quickly known as the innovative manufacturer of quality products. Soon, the customer list
included a representative cross-section of the Fortune 500 companies in the U.S.

Through the years, AES has constantly added new products, and has further
improved the design of existing products, keeping us ahead of the
competition. Several designs, including those for LPG/Air mixing systems,
were awarded national and international patents.

Today, AES is owned by Steven Chambers. Mr. Chambers continues to build

on the tradition of excellence and customer service at AES. At AES, "just good enough" is never good enough. AES is
commited to both quality products and customer service. We strive to understand our customers and continuously im-
prove so that we can exceed their needs and expectations .
