AT THE FILLING STATION
NATURAL GAS FILLING PIPE UNION
The natural gas filling pipe union (B) is located next to the petrol pipe
union and can be accessed by opening the fuel lid.
It is equipped with a dual “non-return” valve: one fitted into the pipe
union body itself; one located next to the bottle, at the start of the filling
pipe.
To gain access to pipe union (B), unscrew cap (A).
The contour of pipe union (B) is of the “multi-purpose” type.
During filling up, natural gas pipe union cap (A) can be positioned directly
on the lid, as illustrated.
In certain European States, the adaptors are considered ILLEGAL (e.g.
Germany).
In the case of service stations equipped with m
3gas guns (with dissolved
air pressure) so as to verify the residual pressure in the gas bottle, the
non-return valves must be unblocked by supplying a small quantity of
Methane.
The other plates (delivered with the vehicle documents) indicate the
expected date for the first testing/inspection of the gas bottles.
The employees assigned to the Methane supply are not authorised to fill
the gas bottles with the test date expired.
