Bukti-bukti untuk menyangkal bahawa NGV itu bahaya dan mudah meletup.

Explosions are due to human negligence of safety and not NGV itself.
Never refill a LPG cooking cylinder with NGV
A LPG Cylinder can resist a pressure from 150 PSI.
A Ngv Cylinder can resist a pressure from 3500 PSI.

NGV is more safe than Petrol!

Tragedy for brothers who modified cooking gas tank for car
By CHEN PELF YEEN and ALLISON LAI ( The Star)

MALACCA: Tragedy struck two brothers trying to save on fuel by self-modifying a cooking gas tank for their van's natural gas tank when one of them was killed in an explosion.
The incident occurred at a Petronas petrol station in Batu Berendam on Friday night.
The incident happened when brothers Mohd Hailmi Ishak, 25, from Kampung Duyong, and his brother Rosli Ishak, 30, from Taman Tiang Dua, had stopped at the petrol station at about 7.50pm Friday to pump gas into their Toyota Lite Ace van with the help of a worker Razali Md Zin, 31.
It is believed that Rosli, the driver, was refuelling the vehicle while his younger brother was standing nearby with Razali when the blast occurred, shattering the front portion of the vehicle including blowing out two of its doors.
The explosion completely shattered Mohd Hailmi’s left leg and ripped his stomach open while Rosli and Razali escaped with light injuries.
Mohd Hailmi, a self-employed electrician, was rushed to the Malacca Hospital where he later succumbed to his injuries at about 1.30am Saturday.
When met at the hospital, Mohd Hailmi’s father-in-law, Zahmin Ibrahim, 50, said the victim and his daughter Nur Syahirah Zahmin, 23, had recently tied the knot in July and had gone for their honeymoon in New Zealand three months ago.
He said that his daughter, who is two-months pregnant, was devastated at the tragic death of her husband.
It is learnt that Mohd Hailmi and Rosli run a family business repairing and dealing in second-hand electrical appliances that involves them making trips to Singapore and Johor with the van.
Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Ali Rustam urged the police and relevant authorities to investigate the incident to determine how a cooking gas tank could have been modified for use in the vehicle.
Meanwhile, Kubu Fire and Rescue stations investigating officer Mokhtar Osman said initial investigations indicated that the gas tank was located underneath the front seat of the vehicle

CHERAS:
Pelanggan sebuah pam minyak yang sedang mengisi petrol ke dalam kenderaan masing-masing lari bertempiaran apabila mendengar bunyi letupan dari pam gas asli kenderaan (NGV) bersebelahan.
Difahamkan letupan yang berlaku pada jam 10.40 malam tadi di sebuah stesen minyak di Batu 5 Jalan Cheras berhampiran pusat beli-belah Leisure Mall di sini, berpunca daripada tong gas memasak yang disimpan dalam but sebuah kenderaan yang mengisi NGV di stesen itu.
Menurut pemilik kenderaan itu yang hanya ingin dikenali sebagai Yong, 45, letupan itu berlaku selepas lima minit dia mula mengisi tangki NGV di belakang keretanya sebelum dikejutkan dengan dentuman kuat yang meranapkan belakang kenderaan jenis Nissan itu.
“Saya bernasib baik, ketika kejadian saya berada di hadapan jika tidak pasti saya akan parah akibat serpihan besi daripada letupan kuat itu.
“Saya tergamam dan terpaksa meniarap, risau jika berlaku letupan susulan bagaimanapun bangun beberapa minit kemudian selepas mendapati keadaan selamat,” katanya ketika ditemui.
Yong mendakwa dia terpaksa menyimpan tong gas memasak terbabit dalam but kenderaannya apabila tidak sempat untuk menghantarnya pulang ke rumah selepas dia menukarnya di kedai pada sebelah pagi.
Dia yang dalam kebingungan dengan kejadian itu kemudian menghubungi isteri bagi memaklumkan kejadian yang hampir meragut nyawanya serta meranapkan kereta yang baru tiga bulan menggunakan sistem NGV itu.
Sementara itu, pekerja stesen minyak terbabit yang hanya ingin dikenali sebagai Ali, ketika kejadian dia bertugas di kaunter apabila tiba-tiba mendengar letupan kuat dan gegaran.
Berikutan kejadian itu, perkhidmatan di stesen minyak berkenaan dihentikan seketika manakala khidmat untuk mengisi NGV ditangguh sehingga pemeriksaan keselamatan selesai dijalankan.

Big blow: Members of the fire department and the curious public surveying the damage to the petrol station following the explosion in Jinjang yesterday.

KUALA LUMPUR: A man cheated death when an NGV gas cylinder in his car boot exploded at a petrol station in Jalan Jambu Jerteh, Jinjang here.

Firm: Blast not linked to NGV

KUALA LUMPUR:
It was an oxy-acetylene gas tank kept in the boot of a Mercedes-Benz that exploded at a Petronas petrol station here on Thursday and not the car’s NGV cylinder, a Petronas Dagangan Berhad statement said yesterday.
The statement said the NGV cylinder was found intact.
“Based on our initial investigation and as reported by the customer, the probable source of the explosion was from a gas cylinder used for welding (normally containing oxy-acetylene gas) kept in the boot of the customer’s car, and not the NGV tank as reported,” it said.
The Mercedes’ boot exploded after the driver had refuelled the NGV tank in his car in Jinjang here.
The car did not catch fire but its rear was damaged.


Scene of explosion: The petrol station in Jalan Jambu Jerteh, Jinjang where the NGV gas cylinder exploded in the boot of the car.

Petronas advised NGV vehicle users to heed safety precautions on NGV usage, which include avoiding close contact between highly flammable materials and the NGV gas cylinder.
“Customers are advised to adhere to the safety requirement at all Petronas service stations and NGV stations which strictly prohibits the usage of cellular phones, smoking and keeping the car engine running while refuelling.
“Petronas would also like to stress that the safety of our employees, customers, contractors and the public is of paramount importance in all areas of our operations,” the statement said.;

THE PROOF:

The explosion is caused by the driver carrying one or more explosive Acetylene container(s) at the rear compartment.
During refiling the NGV cylinder the temperature increase.
The combination of hot weather, enclosed enviroment and temperature of refilling the NGV Cylinder, has overheated the chemical and explode.

The picture shows clearly that the NGV cylinder is not the cause of the problem.

Lagi-lagi NGV.....

What is NGV?

NGV stands for 'Natural Gas For Vehicles'. It is equivalent to natural gas supplied to power stations, industries, commercial establishment and households. NGV is an environmentally friendly fuel and has been proven to be lighter than air. It is specially developed to provide economic value to users without compromising on quality.

Why NGV?

  • Substantial savings in fuel cost (please refer below for sample calculation
  • Lower operating cost
  • Contributes to a cleaner environment
  • Extended travel range

 

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

How can I $ave ??

Calculation is based on 3,000 KM travelling distance per month (150 KM, Petrol Full Tank = RM 29.70 , Gas Full Tank = RM 8)

COMPARISON PETROL NGV GAS SAVE $
Price (RM/Liter) RM 2.70 (harga terbaru !!) RM 0.68 RM 2.02
Cost per month RM 720 RM 180 RM 540 (Jimat 75%)

 

No. of Months Total Saving
12 Months RM 6,480
24 Months RM 12,960
36 Months RM 19,440

Note : This is only a sample calculation, the accurate calculation depends on the actual travelling distance of different types of vehicle.

Malaysian Government Incentives & Legislations To Encourage Use of NGV

NGV is supported by the government with incentives and legislation to encourage vehicles owner to use NGV. NGV price is only RM 0.68 cent/litre equivalent of petrol, is cheaper than other fuels. NGV conversion kits are exempted from import duty and sales tax.
Reduction of road tax from existing levels:

  • Monogas vehicle (NGV only) - 50% off
  • Bi-fuel vehicle (Petrol & NGV) - 25% off
  • Dual-fuel vehicle (Diesel & NGV) - 25% off

All these are major factors for potential owners to consider when making their vehicle fuel choices. However, what many owners may not be aware of is the safety record of NGV vehicles. NGV vehicles safety record compares favourably to other traditional fuels or alternative fuels available today. This is due to the superior (and still improving) technology, higher safety standards and the physical properties of NGV itself which makes it as safe or safer to use than petroleum-based fuels (Source from: Petronas Malaysia ).

Letupan NGV

Bukan untuk menakutkan atau menkhianati sesiapa, cuma kita boleh mengelakkan kejadian seperti ini daripada berlaku lagi dengan mendapatkan nasihat secara profesional daripada Pemasang NGV yang berdaftar dengan JPJ.

Pasanglah sistem NGV di tempat yang berdaftar dengan JPJ. Jadikanlah apa yang berlaku di Melaka baru-baru ini satu ikhtibar utk kita semua.

Pasanglah NGV di Premis-Premis yang berdaftar dengan JPJ.


      Pemilik kenderaaan yang ingin menggunakan gas asli diingatkan supaya hanya memasang tangki gas di bengkel yang berdaftar dengan Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan. Senarai 72-bengkel berdaftar boleh disemak di laman web jabatan, mulai minggu depan. Ketua Pengarah J-P-J, Datuk Solah Mat Hassan berkata, kenderaan yang telah dipasang dengan tangki gas, perlu dibawa ke Puspakom untuk memastikan pemasangan yang dilakukan mematuhi syarat dan piawaan yang ditetapkan. Beliau ditemui selepas merasmikan Program J-P-J Bersama Rakyat di Rembau, Negeri sembilan.

 

Datuk Solah juga menasihati pengguna supaya mematuhi peraturan semasa mengisi gas bagi mengelak kejadian tidak diingini seperti kenderaan meletup. Tegas beliau, keselamatan perlu diutamakan. Gas asli adalah bahan yang sensitif dan mudah terbakar. Sehubungan itu, larangan merokok serta arahan mematikan enjin dan telefon bimbit semasa mengisi gas, jangan dipandang ringan.

 

Dalam kejadian di stesen minyak Petronas di Batu Berendam, Melaka malam tadi, sebuah van yang menggunakan gas asli meletup menyebabkan seorang maut dan dua, cedera parah. Menurut pasukan bomba, tangki gas van tersebut merupakan sebuah tangki gas memasak L-P-G biasa yang diubahsuai untuk mengisi gas N-G-V. Mangsa terbunuh akibat kecederaan pada usus perut dan belakang badan, sementara kaki kirinya hancur.

As for my rusa (carburator 1.6 engine) so far so good. Masih boleh lari 140km/hr on highways. Kit installed 2 yrs ago.

Fuel (CNG 70 liter tank) consumption- max filling about 18 liters ++ equivalent to about RM 12++. Can go up to 150-180km (town driving) and about 200-250km (highway driving). 

Pick-up : Tipu la kalau I kata sama macam pakai petrol . But I guess it is between petrol and diesel engine driving since I don't really feel much of difference. Tip top performance is every after service and engine tuning (mind you carburator engines need regular engine tuning as against injection engines). 

Overall, untuk orang yang tak bawa laju macam myself ni, OK sangat-sangat la....Of course la injection engine perform better in terms of fuel consuption and pick-up performance. I've tried Proton Perdana NGV- macam tak terasa perbezaannya.... I've also heard that the new Toyota Camry 2.4 installed with latest Landirenzo kit (RM 6000++??) boleh panjat Genting without switching to petrol!
