Inert Gas Generator (Tanker) · Boilers

Technical data from manufacturer or class sources · not yet verified by a person​‍‌‌‍‌‍‌⁠‍‍‍⁠‍‌​⁠‌‍⁠

The system generates a low-oxygen inert gas stream and supplies it to cargo tanks or associated spaces so the atmosphere is kept outside the flammable range during approved cargo operations. A typical IGG installation includes a combustion or gas-generation section, gas cooling and cleaning equipment, blowers, oxygen monitoring, pressure control, valves and safety interlocks. It is integrated with the cargo-tank inert-gas main and with deck isolation, non-return and pressure-protection arrangements required by the vessel design. Reliable oxygen measurement and correct gas pressure are essential because the system is a safety barrier against formation of a flammable cargo-tank atmosphere. The exact burner arrangement, gas capacity, oxygen limit and control settings are vessel-specific; refer to the manufacturer documentation and applicable statutory documentation for the exact figure.

Service

Service notes.

What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.

Function-test oxygen monitoring, high-oxygen shutdown or diversion, gas-temperature protection, blowers, combustion safeguards and deck isolation arrangements. Inspect scrubber/cooling sections, drains, demisters, fans, dampers and gas piping for deposits, corrosion and leakage. Verify the deck water seal or other approved non-return arrangements where fitted and inspect pressure/vacuum protection associated with the inert-gas main. All oxygen limits, test values and statutory checks must follow the approved vessel and manufacturer documentation.

Spare parts notes

Carry burner and ignition service parts, flame-detection components, blower bearings/seals as appropriate, oxygen-analyser cells and sampling components, valve-actuator kits, pressure/temperature sensors, scrubber nozzles or demister parts where replaceable, gaskets and control fuses. Critical spares should be aligned with cargo-operation risk and the vessel's redundancy philosophy.

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
