Fullcryo China Suppliers Factory: 52.6m³ Liquefied Natural Gas & Liquid Ethane Transport Semi-Trailer
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
1. Definition and Function
An LNG transport semi-trailer is mainly used for the long-distance and large-capacity transportation of LNG. It can safely and efficiently transport LNG from receiving stations, liquid plants to end customers, playing a crucial role in the LNG supply chain.
2. Structural Features
Double-layer Vacuum Insulated Tank
The tank of the LNG semi-trailer usually adopts a double-layer stainless steel structure, with a vacuum insulation layer between the inner and outer layers. This design can effectively reduce heat conduction, ensuring that LNG is stably stored at a low temperature of -162°C and reducing the volatility of boil-off gas (BOG).
High-strength Support Frame
The tank is fixed to the semi-trailer chassis through a high-strength steel frame. This not only ensures the ability to withstand dynamic loads and vibrations during transportation but also reduces the vehicle's own weight, thereby improving transportation efficiency.
Multi-axle Chassis Design
Commonly configured with a 3-axle or 4-axle chassis, it uses air suspension or leaf spring suspension to ensure driving stability and load-bearing capacity. Some high-end models are equipped with an automatic inflation and deflation system to adapt to different road conditions.
Application Scenarios
LNG transport semi-trailers are widely used in industrial and urban gas supply. They can be used for long-distance transportation between receiving stations, liquid plants, and end customers, and are also suitable for industrial and urban gas peak shaving.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the main function of an LNG transport semi-trailer?
A1: It is primarily designed for the long-distance, large-capacity, safe, and efficient transportation of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) from receiving stations and liquid plants directly to end customers.
Q2: How does the tank maintain the ultra-low temperature required for LNG?
A2: The tank utilizes a double-layer stainless steel structure with a high-performance vacuum insulation layer between the inner and outer shells. This minimizes heat transfer, keeping the LNG stable at -162°C and reducing boil-off gas (BOG) loss.
Q3: What safety and stability features are built into the chassis?
A3: The semi-trailer is built with a high-strength steel support frame to withstand dynamic loads. It typically features a 3-axle or 4-axle chassis with air or leaf spring suspension, and select models include automatic inflation/deflation systems for optimal road adaptation.
Q4: Can this vehicle transport media other than Liquefied Natural Gas?
A4: Yes, in addition to Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), the technical parameters specify that it is also suitable for transporting Liquid Ethane.
Q5: What are the key load and volume specifications for model KP9408GDYTA?
A5: This model features a tank volume of 52.6 m³, a rated load capacity of 24,600 kg, a curb weight of 15,400 kg, and a filling capacity of 467 kg/m³ per unit volume.
Q6: In which scenarios are these semi-trailers most commonly applied?
A6: They are widely applied in industrial and urban gas supply systems, facilitating distribution between supply terminals and end-users, and supporting peak shaving operations for city gas grids.
