Home Refueling Appliances

• Phill by BRC FuelMaker.

  The BRC FuelMaker VRA system design has the flexibility to fuel vehicles quickly (Fast-Fill) or over a period of time (Time-Fill), as required. The result is an efficient fueling system that meets the widespread customer demands of convenience, practicality and low cost.
  
  Our VRAs and Phill are certified as appliances by CSA and carry the CE mark. Consequently, we are able to market and distribute our products without the additional cost and regulatory delays common to all other natural gas vehicle (NGV) compression equipment companies.

  
  Certified installers in America are shown here. Here's an article from March 2011 that says the Phill unit costs $4,500 (plus installation) in America. It operates at 0.4 gallon-equivalents per hour.
• OES CNG claims a 75% fill in 5 minutes. An Australian firm with U.S. offices. Contact information: 781-763-7264, cng@oes.net.au Their website has some general information.
• The CNGPump. $4,995. American made. It can fuel a vehicle in 4 to 6 hours. 1 - 1.6gge per hour.

  The CNGPUMP is the first evolution of natural gas compression in 80 years, while all other fueling stations use air compressor type rotary compressors that wear out, leak, have significant oil blow by and require frequent maintenance and repair, the CNGPUMP use's hydraulic compression instead. The Patented CNGPUMP hydraulic compression pump has been running for 10 years without any repairs or breakdowns, with a life expectancy of 20 years or more. The pump uses 75% less moving parts than other compressors, runs cool and is very quiet. We have achieved compression of 16,000psi with no damage to the compressor!
