-
Bulk transfer / Auto LPG — No
-
Why VoT Is Used
-
Simple system (no pump required)
-
Lower operating risk than LoT
-
Suitable for intermittent consumption
-
Uses natural vapor pressure of LPG
However, vapor pressure depends on:
-
Ambient temperature
-
Liquid level inside the vessel
Typical VoT System Components
A basic VoT line consists of:
-
Vapor outlet nozzle (top of vessel)
-
Manual isolation valve
-
Pressure regulator
-
Safety relief valve
-
Vapor pipeline
-
Burner / appliance
No pump is required.
Safety Importance of LoT
-
Low flow capacity
-
Pressure drops at high demand
-
Low flow capacity
-
Pressure drops at high demand
-
Not suitable for continuous heavy loads
-
Risk of vessel chilling at high draw-off rates
If vapor is drawn too fast, liquid LPG may flash, causing:
-
-
-
Pressure collapse
-
Frosting on vessel
