Westport LNG Tank System

Optimized for Spark Ignited Engines

The Westport LNG Tank System is optimized for spark ignited (SI) engines. Featuring proven Westport technology, the tank provides customers with the ability to fuel even the largest SI engines on a single tank and deliver extended range. By requiring fewer tanks, providing greater fuel density, offering fuel-flexibility, and longer fuel storage, the Westport LNG Tank System also offers performance, price, and weight reduction advantages when compared to existing LNG and compressed natural gas (CNG) options. 

A single 150-gallon Westport LNG Tank System takes the place of three standard CNG tanks, lowering fuel storage costs, speeding up refueling, and reducing overall vehicle weight by 600 lbs.

Now, fleets with a mixture of SI-technology trucks and Westport HPDI-technology trucks can use the same LNG fuel for all of their natural gas trucks.

  • fuel-flexibility with either warm (saturated) or cold (unsaturated) LNG—increasing vehicle range by up to 10% when using cold LNG
  • operates in either a dual or single tank configuration—even with the largest SI engines
  • works with any OEM vehicle powered by natural gas, including dual-fuel engines
  • Westport Active System Mangement matches fuel delivery with driving patterns
  • multiple sensors include: tank pressure, system pressure, hydraulic pressure, pump discharge temperature, system temperature, coolant temperature, and hydraulic pump current draw
  • advanced driver display indicates LNG fuel levels, system status information, and diagnostic fault codes
  • LNG tank module
    • 120 or 150 gallon tanks that can flow tank vapor to engine at idle
    • integrated cryogenic LNG pump with vaporizer in tank shroud
    • 85"(l) x 26"Ø
  • hydraulic power module
    • 16"(l) x 12"(w) x 30"(h) ~125 lbs
  • integrated gas module
    • internal filter
    • 36"(l) x 4.5"Ø ~22 lbs
  • driver display
    • fuel levels, driver messages, and fault codes
  • two year / 250,000 mile warranty
  • access to field service from Westport-trained personnel

Lower your fuel costs with a single-tank, cold LNG solution

  • increased range
  • longer fuel storage
  • reduced cost of building fuel stations
