20 years in business
Many years of experience and uncompromising approach
to quality provide reliable products and user satisfaction. Lower emission
Cleaner LPG exhaust is better for the health and climate changes.
Why invest in the installation of LPG?
Lower operating costs
Installation of LPG/CNG is an investment that always pays for itself. Depending on the distances you must cover, the refund will be made in a shorter or longer period of time.
Greater range
To put it bluntly – for the same amount spent on refuelling, we will go MUCH more kilometres. For more detailed calculations, please use the simulator Check coverage of the car
Environment protection
LPG is currently regarded as the cleanest fossil fuel. Elimination of harmful benzene exhaust, compounds of lead and sulphates, is dedicated to care for the health and delaying climate change.
Car gas system components
IVth generation sequential gas installation it is the system of electronic components, electromechanical and mechanical, combined with electrical harness and gas lines. This complex system is managed by specialized computer – popularly known as the controller.
1
Tank
It may be mounted inside or outside the vehicle. In cars usually are mounted toroidal tanks in the spare wheel well. Cylindrical tanks are mounted in the cargo area.
2
Multivalve
Gas tank attachments, which include:
- pressure valve – filling the tank is limited to 80%
- gas valve out – protects against the free outflow of gas and against the increase of the pressure above 27 bars and tank temperature above 1200° C.
- gas solenoid coil – after switching on the central, solenoid valve opens and supplies LPG to the installation.
- gas level indicator – allows determining the amount of fuel in the tank.
3
Gas main line
Thermoplastic or copper pipe that connects the tank with the solenoid.
4
The filling gas valve
It allows filling the tank with gas. It is usually placed under the fueling flap or in the rear bumper.
5
Solenoid valve
Opens or closes the flow of gas in the liquid state. It is mounted when the reducer does not have an integrated solenoid valve.
6
The liqiud phase gas filter
Integrated with the reducer or mounted separately – filters gas in the liquid state.
7
Reducer with integrated gas valve
Is responsible for the stability of gas pressure during engine operation.
8
The volatile phase gas filter
Filter mounted in front of the injectors, which uses centrifugal force expanded gas in the gaseous state. Eliminates dirtiness and centrifuges oil fractions present in the gas.
9
Map sensor
Measures temperature and pressure directly in the gas stream.
10
Injectors
Mounted individually or combined in a set. Inject precise doses of gas to the intake manifold channels.
11
Controller
The brain of autogas installation – advanced computer, controlling the operation of all system components.
12
Central
It shows the current level of gas in the tank. It allows selecting the fuel on which to run the engine.

Perfect Optima kit
Laboratory tests of OPTIMA controllers together with Shark reducer and Barracuda gas injectors supported by centrifugal filter ULTRA 360°, carried out on a wide range of vehicles, have shown that it is a fully optimized kit of autogas installation, which reliably works on any model of a car.

Optima nano controller
OPTIMA NANO is the most advanced computer unit controlling the sequential gas injection, in the ECU class with 24-pin link. It is designed for vehicles with a simple and extensive indirect fuel injection systems. Innovatory algorithm of OPTIMA NANO controller precisely adjusts the dose of gas to the operating conditions and engine load in the full range of his work, thus reducing gas consumption. Connection of a standard OBD interface gives installers the ability to collect OBD map correction, injection time map of turnover and manifold pressure and precise regulation of injection times, the rotations, manifold pressure, temperature and gas pressure.
-
Shark Reducer
SHARK reducer is designed for LPG sequential injection systems. His task is to reduce the pressure and the evaporation of gas to the volatile phase and to maintain proper pressure in order to ensure optimal working conditions of the whole system. Excellent quality of the SHARK reducer, is a guarantee of high efficiency and long-term, trouble-free operation. The unique and modern design ensures proper operation in harsh climatic conditions, which is reflected in the smooth operation of LPG in the user’s car. Reducer is equipped with a gas filter in the liquid phase and the solenoid valve with increased flow. As the first company in Poland we applied the valve with a diameter of 8 mm, this solution resulted that there are no restrictions on the movement of gas to the injection system. Special diaphragm design provides full performance and the lack of pressure drops in the full load range. Designing SHARK reducer, we remembered also about the possibility of installation in two planes, which in many cases is easier for the assembler.
-
Barracuda injector
- Construction of immersion (piston)
- Vertical gas supply
- Compact cover
- Standard connection
- Materials with high magnetic permeability and high saturation induction
- Seals specially designed from mixtures of fluorine rubber.
- Modern fluoro polymer sliding coatings with non-stick and anti-freeze function
- Adjusting the flow through the calibration of nozzles.
- Free configuration of the connection thanks to dedicated adapters and distribution lines.
-
Filter Ultra 360°
Filter Ultra 360° has been designed specifically for the comfort of the assembler. Inlet and outlet connectors are positioned on separate, individual elements of the filter housing, so you can freely adjust the angle between them. Thanks to this solution the assembler has complete freedom in the placement of the filter in the engine compartment.
-
For some petrol engines kit should be expanded with additional elements such as interface OBD or fuel pressure emulator. Indications for use of additional components can be found in our configurator.

Controller Optima EXPERT
OPTIMA EXPERT the newest gas injection system in the OPTIMA family controllers. Currently, it is the most technically advanced, professional controller with built-in module OBD and fuel pressure sensor emulator. The emulator is fully programmable from the application to the tuning system Optima (from version 2.05). Advanced functions allow for auto adaptation and direct communication with OBD, what makes it one of the most distinctive controllers in 4-6-8 cylinder class. OPTIMA is the first Polish LPG system which meets the requirements of stringent Euro 6 emissions standards.
