Microbox® is Galileo’s original and exclusive line of “Plug-and-Play” CNG refueling stations.
This enclosed, explosion proof module, saves major construction costs and delays, characteristic of other designs. Start up of this unit, only requires connection to utility services.
Its compact design, portability and simple reconnection, facilitates eventual expansion, relocation and financing of this equipment.

Microbox® contains all components required to regulate, measure, compress and deliver CNG in the safest and most effective manner. Capacity utilization, efficiency, reliability and ease of operation are unmatched in the industry.

Microbox® includes:

• Gas Inlet Measuring System
• Suction Blow down
• Galileo Compressor
• Explosion-proof compressor cabinet
• Electric Control Panel
• Built in Storage at 250 bar
• Active safety systems
• Priority Panel
• Compressor driven electric motor (direct coupling)
• Touch-screen control panel and modem data transmission
• Explosive atmosphere detection systems
• Fire extinction systems
• Inter-stage air cooling system
• Inter-stage pulse damping system
• Inter-stage hydrate bleed system
• Gas detection and shut-off


Where electricity is expensive or unavailable, Microbox® with a gas motor is the proper solution.

1) 1) Less space required
Due to its design, small size, and as it does not require a surrounding bunker installation, Microbox® significantly reduces the space required.

2) Plug & Play
As it includes all the elements required for a correct, full, quick, and safe CNG installation, MICROBOX® is easy to set up. The absence of additional civil and electromechanical works significantly reduces installation expenses.

Microbox® doesn’t need:
>> Bunker construction
>> Explosion-proof electric installation
>> Emergency device switch layout
>> External storage
>> External blow down
>> Anti-vibration base
>> Electromechanical work

3) Performance
Galileo’s compressors incomparable performance, reliability and low operating costs, allow flows ranging from 300 Sm3/h to over 3,000 Sm3/h, always using a single unit.

4) Supply pressure
The wide range of available compressors allows working with inlet pressures ranging from 0.5 bar to 60 bar, thus ensuring the station required flow.

5) Enersave® electric consumption
The cost of electric energy is one of the most important variables of a CNG station. The station profit depends on the hired power and the consumed energy.
Enersave® adds up to the compressors' operating efficiency. It is a smart system developed by Galileo through which the compressor adjusts its operating consumption based on the demand curve during the day. This results in up to 50% electric consumption savings.
Enersave®: intelligence applied to business optimization.

6) Satisfied customers
All the competitive advantages of Galileo equipment ensure customer satisfaction, thus resulting in the station profitability.
