Single packed reciprocating compressors are designed for applications where oil-free gas and leakage containment are not critical. These compressors utilize a single set of V-ring packing per piston rod and do not include a distance piece between the cylinder and crosshead guide .
Key Features:
- Compression Design:Single stage compression, with the exception of model D891, which offers two-stage compression.
- Packing System:Employs a V-ring packing design consisting of a male and female packing ring, washers, and a spring.
- Applications:Ideal for non-toxic, non-corrosive applications where oil-free gas and leakage containment are not critical. Commonly used in LPG (propane & butane), agricultural ammonia, and natural gas applications .
Specifications:
- Piston Displacement :Up to 117 cfm (198.8 m³/h).
- Working Pressure :Up to 450 psi (31 bar g).
- Brake Horse power :Up to 45 hp (34 kW).
- Maximum Outlet Temperature:350°F (177°C).
