The Marine Propane Distribution System is designed to safely store and distribute propane gas on vessels. It includes storage tanks, pressure regulators, and piping to deliver gas to appliances. Safety features like leak detectors and shut-off valves ensure compliance with marine regulations.

Size: Typically ranges from 1/4" to 2" in diameter for distribution lines.

Grade: Commercial-grade propane (HD-5) with a minimum of 90% propane and 5% propylene.

Viscosity: Low viscosity, approximately 0.01 cP at 25°C.

Buoyancy: Propane is heavier than air (1.5 times denser) but systems include buoyant materials for marine applications.

Material: Stainless steel (316L), carbon steel (ASTM A106), or copper-nickel alloys for corrosion resistance.

Pressure Rating: Designed for 250-350 psi operating pressure, with safety valves set at 375 psi.

Temperature Range: -40°F to 140°F (-40°C to 60°C) operational range.

Regulatory Compliance: Meets USCG, ABS, and ISO 10239 standards.

Fittings: Brass or stainless steel, rated for marine environments.

Leak Detection: Integrated sensors with alarms for propane concentration above 1,000 ppm.
