1 Engine conversions to LPG or CNG are expensive and complex The solution is InjectoReducer

2 Why use LPG or CNG? What is LPG Liquefied Petroleum Gas is a gas mostly propane and butane stored in a cylindrical pressure What is CNG Compressed Natural Gas is also a natural gas (methane and ethane) stored at high pressure and is a fuel which can be used in place of gasoline (Petrol), Diesel fuel and propane/lpg Its cheaper 50% on average less than Petrol and Diesel Cleaner Up to 30% less CO2 emissions, less Particulate Matter (PM) and Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) than Diesel Don t need AdBlue In the case of Diesels or the additional cost, limitation, complication or storage You can retrofit it A traditional Petrol or Diesel engine can be converted

3 The current LPG/CNG conversion issues Lots of separate parts 4 are needed (solenoid valve, reducer, filter and injectors) plus bespoke pipe work to order, stock and keep spares Lots of separate suppliers Leads to warranty identification and claim issues A high labour element Up to 80% of total cost, Hours Safety Lots of connections increases risk of leakages Inefficient The components all take different times to warm up to operating temperature Unnecessary heavy Separately designed components mean increased weight

4 The new Rail Srl InjectoReducer Solution Only 1 part (solenoid valve, reducer, filter and injectors are combined) to order, stock and keep spares 75% reduction Only 1 supplier Simple warranty identification and claims 100% clarity Minimum labour element 12 hours Up to 50% reduction Safety Vastly reduced connections Minimal risk of leakages Efficient The components all warm up together Up to 20% more efficient Unnecessary heavy A common, integrated component mean lower weight Up to 25%

5 What does this mean as a business opportunity? Parts cost 5-10% less Installation time 25% less (depending on fitting model) Changes in market demand Electric Vehicles are stimulating unprecedented interest from prospective customers but still they still suffer from Range Anxiety With much lower cost a LPG conversion they can still save on operational costs, satisfy environmental conscience and dispel any fears of range as they can still revert to petrol This means more people and businesses will take up the option presenting installers with incredible commercial opportunity
