Gas Blending equipment, LP gas Air Mixer MGA - 1200

LP Gas Air Mixer MGA-1200

The LP Gas Air Mixer MGA-1200 is a state-of-the-art gas blender designed to produce SNG (Synthetic Natural Gas) through the precise mixing of LPG (Liquid Petroleum Gas), especially propane, and air. Engineered by I-Maximum, these gas blenders offer both high throughput and strong control, making them ideal for industrial applications seeking cost-effective energy solutions.

Key Features

• Capacity and Pressure. The MGA-1200 delivers an output capacity of up to 1200 m³/hr of mixed gas (SNG), with an outlet pressure of 3 bar.

• Automatic Ratio Flow Control. A built-in PLC system with touchscreen monitor ensures that the flow of LPG and air is maintained at the optimal mix ratio, even under changing load conditions.

• Robust Design. Inlets for LPG and air are both DN 50, and the gas outlet for SNG is DN 125. The unit includes pressure regulators, ensuring safe and reliable operation.

• Local Control and Automation. Thanks to the control panel with PLC and touchscreen, operators can monitor and adjust parameters in real time, helping to maintain desired performance and safety.

What It Does

This mixer acts as a crucial component in replacing or supplementing natural gas in industrial settings. By blending LPG with air, it produces a fuel that replicates many of the combustion properties of natural gas, allowing its use in equipment originally designed for NG. This helps lower the propane cost for facilities that would otherwise consume pure propane, since mixing with air reduces the amount of LPG needed per unit of energy delivered.

Economic Advantages

• Using SNG via the MGA-1200 leads to noticeable savings, because pure propane is more expensive on a per-energy basis than a blended substitute. Users who choose to buy propane in bulk and then mix it realize a lower gas cost on their total energy bills.

• Thanks to this blending, a lower LPG cost per useful energy output can be achieved.

• The system is particularly beneficial in regions where propane price fluctuates heavily or where natural gas supply is constrained. By producing SNG in situ, a facility gains more control over its gas price exposure and energy budgeting.

Technical Specifications

Use Cases

• Industrial boilers and furnaces originally designed for natural gas can be converted to operate with SNG via the gas mixer valve in the system, improving fuel flexibility.

• Plants that need to buy LPG or buy gas for processing can leverage this system to reduce dependency on high-priced natural gas or pure propane.

• Remote operations or facilities in locations with high LPG price or high gas price volatility will find that producing their own SNG with the MGA-1200 gives them greater predictability in fuel expenses.

Why Choose the MGA-1200

• The air mixer valve for natural gas control ensures that the mixer delivers performance that closely resembles that of NG, making it suitable for downstream equipment without requiring major modifications.

• It is built to the high standards expected in gas handling equipment, including safety in handling of propane, resistance to pressure fluctuations, and accurate mixture control.

• It reduces overall dependence on natural gas supply chains while keeping energy continuity, especially in environments where gas supply is inconsistent or extremely costly.

In summary, the gas mixers of the LP Gas Air Mixer MGA series are highly capable blender gas systems that help industrial users mitigate energy costs by efficiently blending LPG with air to produce synthetic natural gas. They deliver high output, reliable pressure, and automated control, making it an excellent investment for reducing gas mixer integration issues, lowering LPG price burdens, and managing gas cost exposure.
