Designed for High-Purity Gas Applications
High-purity gas applications require more than simply meeting flow and pressure requirements. Gas cleanliness, sealing performance, operational stability, material selection, and system safety are all important factors when designing and operating compression equipment.
For oxygen-related applications in particular, equipment design and manufacturing require careful control throughout the entire process.
For this project, TurboCompre developed the compressor solution according to the customer’s actual process requirements, focusing on reliable operation and proper integration with the air separation system.
Stable Performance at 11,500 Nm³/h
The compressor is designed for a flow rate of 11,500 Nm³/h and a discharge pressure of 4.7 barG.
During commissioning, the unit started successfully on the first attempt and demonstrated stable operation. The associated piping, valves, and auxiliary systems also performed normally.
For an air separation plant, the compressor is a critical piece of equipment. Stable compressor operation helps support the continuous and reliable operation of the overall gas production system.
From Engineering to Commissioning
Successful start-up is closely related to proper engineering and preparation before the equipment reaches the site.。
TurboCompre works with customers to evaluate key operating parameters, including:
- Gas flow rate
- Suction and discharge pressure
- Gas composition
- Operating temperature
- Gas properties
- Continuous operating conditions
Based on these parameters, TurboCompre can provide customized compressor solutions for air separation plants, high-purity gas applications, and industrial gas projects.
Our support can cover the process from technical design and equipment manufacturing to installation guidance and commissioning.
Supporting Air Separation & Industrial Gas Projects
As air separation and industrial gas projects continue to demand higher efficiency, reliability, and cost performance, selecting the right compressor technology becomes increasingly important.
TurboCompre specializes in centrifugal compressors, air separation compressors, high-purity gas compressors, compressor spare parts, and technical services.
