PRS-G series
Glycol bath heater. High-volume, continuous duty with reliable heating.
CNG delivery | Glycol bath PRS
PRS-G2000
The PRS-G2000 is the PRS-G8000 design scaled to 2,000 MSCF/d: the same glycol bath heating, redundant two-stage pressure control, onboard fuel gas and automation in a smaller package. Heater duty and flow are scaled from the PRS-G8000; footprint and weight are confirmed per unit.
Overview
CNG delivered from trailers arrives at high pressure and drops sharply on its way to site pressure. That pressure drop cools the gas fast enough to freeze regulators, valves and downstream equipment if the heat is not put back in. The PRS-G2000 puts it back with a about 500 MBTU/hr glycol bath heater sized for continuous delivery up to 2,000 MSCF/d.
Redundant control valve (stage 1) and Mooney regulator (stage 2) circuits keep gas flowing even during maintenance. User-definable outlet PSVs and onboard fuel gas mean the unit ships ready to drop on site, hook up and run. Trailer swap logic, multi-trailer mode and start-up sequencing are handled in software.

Why PRS-G2000
Glycol bath heating
About 500 MBTU/hr glycol bath heater sized for continuous 2,000 MSCF/d delivery. Keeps gas above hydrate and freeze conditions even during sustained high-flow operation.
Redundant pressure control
First-stage cut by two parallel control valve circuits, second-stage cut by two parallel Mooney regulator circuits. Run on one, service the other. No shutdown for routine maintenance.
Mobile package
Skid or trailer mounted and sized to the unit, designed to move between sites and operate wherever CNG trailers are staged.
Fully automated
PLC-based control with HMI and remote monitoring via Ewon. Trailer swap logic, multi-trailer mode and start-up sequencing handled in software.
Onboard fuel gas
Self-supplied fuel gas for the heater burner. No external fuel hookup required to start producing heat.
Built and tested in shop
Final assembly, FAT, loop checks and HMI commissioning happen in our shop. Issues get caught in the shop, not on your site.
Typical applications
- Dual-fuel frac and e-frac fleets
- Drilling rig fuel gas supply
- Mobile and temporary power generation

Engineering and aftermarket support
Every PRS-G2000 ships with a complete engineering package: P&IDs, GA drawings, electrical load lists and a full O&M manual. Critical spares, including control valve trims and instrumentation, are stocked at our shop for fast response.
Field service, troubleshooting and remote diagnostics are handled by the same team that designed and built the unit.
