Description
Technology: diaphragm compressors, piston compressors, screw compressors
Advantages of diaphragm compressors:
- Compact design - due to the high volumetric efficiency of the compressor heads, a high pressure increase is achieved with relatively few steps
- The purity of the gas is retained - The effective sealing of the compression chamber ensures contamination-free compression.
- No contamination of the environment with the processed gas compressor - The complete isolation of the compression chamber prevents leakage
- Maintaining the compression chamber integrity - the safety system detects possible rupture of one of the three head membranes.
- Specific technical assessment of each application
- Complete turnkey units with control systems, gas control system and gas treatment plants.
- Easy maintenance - mostly by the operators themselves
Advantages of reciprocating compressors:
- Dry (unlubricated) Compression Technology
- Compressor design according to API 618, 4th edition
- Pressure vessels in accordance with current international regulations
- Complete turnkey units with control systems, gas control system and gas treatment plants
- Tailored to the particular process walkthroughs
- Specific technical assessment of each application
- Easy maintenance - mostly run by the operators themselves
Advantages of screw compressors:
- Maximum flexibility in operation
- Very smooth running even in the most gases
- Specific technical assessment of each application
