Industrial Compressor

Features and Benefits

• Vertical compressors

• Horizontal compressors

Product Features Overview

for Industrial Compressors

• Reciprocating compressor

• Air & water cooled

• Vertical & horizontal designs

• Single acting & double acting

• Single & two stages

• Oil-free & lubricated cylinder

• Single & double distance

piece

• Self-lubricated piston rings

• Ductile iron construction

• Positively locked piston

• Step-cut piston rings for maximum efficiency

• V-rings packing with adjustment

• O-ring leak tight seals

• Pressure lubricated crankcase with external filter

• NPT, ANSI, & DIN flange connections

• Nitride coated piston rods

• Cast iron crosshead

• High efficiency valves

Product Benefits Overview

for Industrial Compressors

• The reciprocating design is decades old but still one of the most efficient designs to date.

• High inlet pressures (Beneficial for high pressure gas boosting or liquefied gas transfer of gases with high vapor pressures)

• High discharge pressures

• Maintenance friendly

• Lubricated power-end (crankcase)

• Oil-Free, Non-lube or lube compressor (cylinder)

Product Benefits Overview

for Industrial Compressors - continue

• Double and triple seals (D and T styles)

– Allow for near oil-free and leak-free compression

– Distance pieces can be purge or padded with an inert gas in

order to maintain near zero product leakage and crankcase

oil carry over

– MC1002 corrosion resistant coated wetted parts

• Side effect of coating is drastically improved piston ring

and packing life

• Most models available in both threaded and ANSI

flanged connections

• Some models are available with water-cooled heads

and cylinders for higher compression ratios

Industrial Horizontal Compressor

Features and Benefits

• Double acting pistons for increased flow

• Capacity control flexibility – Remove valves to convert to single acting cylinders (Blank

valves available)

– Remove cylinders (Blank cylinders available)

– Variable clearance heads available

– Segmented packing for higher speeds and improved life
