NGL Control Panels and Terminal-Design Solutions for Your Industry

Safe, reliable solutions no matter your application.

Across industries, pre-engineered, remote-monitoring control panels ensure seamless automation and system oversight.

Explosion-Proof Controls

Whether you manage a midstream propane facility, wholesale distribution center, or bulk storage operation, outdated control systems can increase safety risks and create regulatory challenges.

Challenges in Propane Distribution and Storage:

Navigating NFPA and OSHA regulations can be complex and time-consuming.
Manual control systems increase the risk of human error and inefficiencies.
Without integrated emergency shutdowns and automation, facilities are vulnerable to operational hazards.

With Northridge’s advanced automation and explosion-proof control systems, propane storage and distribution terminals can operate with confidence, safety, and full compliance.

Propane Railcar Terminals

Without the right control systems, facilities face explosion hazards, regulatory roadblocks, and operational inefficiencies, leading to costly delays and downtime.

Challenges in Oil and Gas Terminals:

Explosion risks increase without properly designed, explosion-proof control systems.
Meeting strict NFPA, OSHA, and NEC regulations can delay projects and increase costs.
Manual control processes lead to operator errors, inefficiencies, and safety concerns.

How Northridge Helps:

Turnkey NGL Control Panels provide a fully certified, pre-engineered safety solution.
Explosion-proof control assemblies reduce fire and explosion hazards in high-risk environments.
Automated emergency shutdowns respond instantly to gas leaks, pressure failures, or system malfunctions.
Remote monitoring capabilities allow operators to track real-time performance and safety metrics.

With Northridge’s pre-engineered control solutions, oil and gas terminals can achieve safer, more efficient operations while meeting all regulatory requirements.

Butane Storage and Transfer

Butane terminals require high-precision control solutions to manage storage levels, transfer operations, and regulatory compliance.

Challenges in Butane Storage and Transfer:

Butane’s volatility requires certified, explosion-proof control systems.
Manual operations increase the risk of leaks, equipment malfunctions, and compliance failures.
Meeting safety codes for hazardous locations requires certified control panels and compliant automation.

How Northridge Helps:

Certified control panels, solenoids, and gas detection systems improve safety.
Provides instant isolation of pumps, meters, and valves in critical situations.
Reduces inspection time and speeds up regulatory approval.

Aerosol Filling Plants

Aerosol filling operations depend on integrated safety controls to prevent accidents, product loss, and environmental hazards.

Challenges in Aerosol Filling Plants:

Accidental release of flammable gas increases explosion potential.
Old-school systems require multiple steps for shutdowns, increasing human error.
Meeting OSHA and hazardous-material-handling requirements is essential for operational approval.

How Northridge Helps:

Automated valve controls simplify operator workload and improve precision.
Integrated gas and flame detection ensure instant response to leaks or system malfunctions. This is especially important as most gasses in this category do not contain mercaptan.
Explosion-proof electrical panels and components provide full compliance with NFPA, NEC, and OSHA requirements.

Flammable Compressed Gas Storage and Transfer

Facilities handling flammable compressed gases require explosion-proof, automated control solutions to ensure safety, meet regulations, and improve efficiency.

Challenges for Flammable Compressed Gas Storage and Transfer:

Facilities must meet NFPA, NEC, and OSHA explosion-proof electrical requirements.
Manual shutdowns and unmonitored transfer operations increase risk.
Without integrated automation, facilities struggle with efficiency and response times.

How Northridge Helps:

Explosion-proof instrumentation and control panels ensure precise, compliant, and efficient operations.
Automated pump, compressor, and valve controls prevent operator errors and reduce downtime.
Remote system monitoring allows operators to track performance and receive real-time alerts.

Ammonia Storage and Transfer

Ammonia storage facilities require specialized explosion-proof control systems that automate vapor recovery, monitor tank levels, and prevent leaks.

Challenges for Ammonia Storage and Transfer:

Ammonia exposure poses serious risks to personnel and the environment.
Uncontrolled release is corrosive and lethal.
Facilities must meet EPA, OSHA, and industrial safety standards.

How Northridge Helps:

Automated overfill prevention and gas detection ensures real-time response to leaks.
Explosion-proof monitoring systems allow for remote monitoring of ammonia storage levels, temperature, and pressure.
Control assemblies fully pre-certified to UL and CSA standards, ensuring compliance and faster approvals.

Custody Transfer Metering Skids

Facilities using natural gas for backup power require seamless, automated control solutions that ensure reliability, prevent downtime, and comply with safety regulations.

Challenges for Natural Gas Backup and Power Generation:

Lack of automation can result in slow response times and outages.
Facilities must meet NEC, NFPA, and UL/CSA standards.
On-site intervention is required for troubleshooting without a connected system.

How Northridge Helps:

Explosion-proof switches, sensors, and warning devices protect against gas leaks, electrical faults, and emergency shutdown failures.
Fully certified electrical assemblies meet UL508, CSA 22-2 286, and NFPA safety standards.
