Product Details:

The DM-Series oil-free piston compressor range delivers high pressures up to 350 bar (a) with outstanding safety and efficiency – important reasons why compressors have become a mainstay in demanding compressed natural gas and hydrogen applications across the world.

Maximum safety:

• Our DM-Series compressors are equipped with oil-free cylinders, incorporating innovative Scotch yoke technology in a space-efficient vertical design.
• DM-Series compressors are absolutely gas-tight, thanks in part to a magnetic-coupling for the motor unit and hermetically sealed pressurized crankcase.
• This design offers you two-way protection: It prevents gas from leaking into the atmosphere and ingress of atmospheric air, providing maximum safety.

Optimal productivity:

• Further boosting your productivity, the single-acting compressors run on low per-stage pressure ratio with combined concentric inlet/outlet valves and single-acting pistons with small cylinder clearance.
• Completing the package, the DM-Series is shipped in a frame-mounted design for quick installation, while total independence from water consumption for cooling further minimizes your cost of ownership.
• DM-Series compressors are CE-certified machines.

Easy maintenance:

• The DM-Series is engineered and tested for a long service life and uncomplicated maintenance.
• Thanks to magnetic coupling design, the compressor block can be easily dismounted and replaced on site in less than a half a day.
• The dismounted compressor block will then be refurbished in the factory to guarantee the shortest downtime and maximum availability.

Completely gas-tight, the piston compressors are perfectly adapted to applications such as:

• NGV refueling stations
• Natural gas grid boosting
• Hydrogen compression for various end uses and processes

Designed for efficiency:

• In applications such as NGV refueling, energy costs make up a considerable amount of your total operating costs.
• To meet this challenge, we developed the DM-Series with a number of energy-saving features including perfectly balanced Scotch yoke drive.

Customizable compressor solutions:

• Fully customizable to your exact specifications, we can build DM-Series compressors for inlet pressures of 1 to 40 bar and in 2 to 5 stage configurations.

Oil-less for safety:

• DM-Series compressors are validated for gas applications, and they also fully comply with ATEX and PED regulations.
• The piston compressors require no oil lubrication, thereby eliminating the risk of gas contamination with oil

Easy installation for instant productivity:

• Get to work right away. Our DM-Series compressors don’t require complex piping arrangements or special foundations, and they ship as complete all-in packages.

Compact, space-efficient:

• In areas where space is limited, every square meter counts.
• Take for example NGV fueling stations in crowded metropolitan areas.
• That’s why the unique vertical design of DM-Series compressors allows for an extremely small footprint of only 0.7 m2 x 0.7 m2 (7.5 sq.ft.)

Oil-free compression with PTFE piston rings and long distance pieces safeguards gas quality. That’s an important asset, since even the slightest contamination of oil is unacceptable and could lead to high risks in many applications. HX/HN compressors work under strenuous conditions in outdoor, indoor, refineries, deserts (high inlet temperatures) and sandy environments.

Built for high efficiency:

• The Variable Speed Drive (VSD), coupled with inlet pressure control, maximizes flow and minimize required horsepower.
• By working less to do more, VSD consumes less power, while giving greater process control and requiring less maintenance

Low cost of ownership:

• Implementing gas screw technology and VSD drive, the GG-Series offers you tremendous savings in terms of energy and maintenance.
• Well-designed circuits, full accessibility and the capability for predictive maintenance also contribute to a low cost of ownership for your machinery

• Equipment for gas compression must meet more stringent safety requirements than conventional air compressors and the GG-Series more than measures up: 100% gas-tight and in compliance with ATEX Zone 1 & 2

Methane and biomethane compressors:

• Combining outstanding performance and safety in a compact, cost-efficient package, our GG-Series oil-lubricated gas screw compressors meet the demands of the most rugged methane and biomethane gas grid injection facilities.
• Powered by Variable Speed Drive (VSD) technology, GG-Series compressors do not only help reduce power bills, but also significantly lower the wear-and-tear on your compressor.
• That, in turn, reduces your maintenance cost and service intervals

Optimal control and safety:

• An easy-to-use control system-the Elektronikon MkV control & monitoring system – lets you keep an eye on all parameters of your daily operations.
• Add to that key features including an emergency solenoid valve shutdown stop-to isolate the compressor from the gas supply in emergencies-as well as gas detection sensors and software, and you get an ultimately safe compressor solution.
• With a compact and robust design to meet the high safety demands in the methane/biogas industry, GG-Series compressors comply with the stringent ATEX Zone 1 & 2 design requirements and CE directives. Security functions are handled by a SIL2 PLC (according to IEC 61508), making the GG-Series one of the safest and most reliable choices in the industry.

Product Details:

In compressor-loaded expanders, the expander is loaded by a single-stage centrifugal compressor through a common shaft. It’s a design that powers a wide range of applications. And because the turboexpander is skid-mounted with its auxiliary support system, it simplifies transport and reduces installation time and cost. Providing inlet pressures of up to 200 bar (a) and with a rated power of up to 23 MW, our EC-Series turboexpanders handle all industrial gases and hydrocarbon gas mixtures, including condensing streams. Variable inlet guide vanes (IGV) used in our EC-Series ensure optimal flow rates even when your process conditions change well beyond the original design point. The EC-Series is available in compressor-load configurations using either oil bearings or active magnetic bearings (ECM).

 

Superior impeller efficiency:

• Utilizing the latest aerodynamic designs-including impellers created with computational-fluid dynamics (CFD) and finite-element analysis (FEA) – our turboexpanders provide high-efficiency refrigeration or power recovery in industrial processes

Customized to application needs:

• Customer-specific configurations perfectly matched to your specific applications, including hydrocarbon processing, LNG liquefaction, and dew-point control.
• When selecting impellers, we analyze all design and off-design cases to achieve a fully optimized design

Certified via international standards:

• In addition to ISO 19001, 14001 and 18001 quality certification, all machines meet or exceed industry (API 617, API 614, API 670 and ANSI B31.3) and other international standards (IEC, NEC, ASME, BS5500)

Full process control variable inlet guide vanes (IGV):

• Variable inlet guide vanes (IGV) ensure optimal flow rates, especially when changing on-site conditions call for immediate adjustments.
• They handle changes in flow levels as low as 10% of design point and up to 125% above

Constructed to withstand the elements:

• Expander compressors are designed for the most demanding conditions, including offshore marine environments, harsh desert or cold weather locations, outdoor unprotected installations and unattended sites.
• In addition, our package designs are customized to fully meet all hazardous areas (Division 1/Zone 1, Division 2/Zone 2) and local codes (CSA, ATEX, etc.)

Versatile compressor expander solutions:

• In nearly one thousand units worldwide, our customers are experiencing a robust expander compressor solution operating even under the most challenging conditions.

Our versatile expander compressors are at the heart of your processes, for example in hydrocarbon applications such as:

• Recovery of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)
• Natural gas liquids (NGL)
• Dew-point control (DPC)
• Liquefied natural gas (LNG)
• Nitrogen rejection

Chemical and petrochemical applications include:

• Ethylene/olefin recovery
