Momentum Fuel Technologies introduces line of increased fuel capacity systems for refuse applications

May 16, 2019
The systems increase the vehicle's diesel gallon equivalent capacity of compressed natural gas.

Momentum Fuel Technologies announced it is offering a tailgate compressed natural gas (CNG) fuel system; a 120 diesel gallon equivalent (DGE) tailgate system. The 120 DGE system provides the longest range in the industry, according to the company, beneficial for longer rural routes common for refuse fleets.

Momentum’s product line has also expanded to include a front of body fuel system with up to 75 DGE capacity. The front of body system is integrated to the truck body, providing a streamlined appearance and allowing for a tighter wheelbase.

The company also recently launched a roof mount fuel system with 95 DGE capacity, which takes advantage of previously unused space in its 75 DGE system without enlarging the overall unit size. “We are always looking for ways to provide innovative solutions to our customers, and the increased capacities in these fuel systems were designed and built to meet the unique needs of the refuse industry,” said Mike Zimmerman, general manager, Momentum Fuel Technologies. “With the 95 DGE roof mount in particular, customers experience a direct cost savings by getting the range they need without having to mount an additional CNG tank on their truck,” he added.

Momentum has also launched a 95 DGE back of cab fuel system. Due to the increased fuel capacity of this unit, drivers and fleet managers have more fuel capacity in the same space. The 95 DGE back of cab fuel system is integrated with Momentum’s fuel management module, so the entire package can be installed faster and requires less frame space, the company says.

Momentum Fuel Technologies offers support from design, manufacturing, sales, and ongoing service throughout the product life cycle with their nationwide dealer support network.
