Centrifugal compressor MSG® 2/3

airgaselectrically-powered

MSG (multi-stage geared) compressors offer outstanding design flexibility. MSG compressors are application engineered with numerous available configurations: • Flows from 70 to 3800 m3/min (2500 to 135,000 CFM) • Input capacity to over 18,650 kW (25,000 hp) • Discharge pressures to 100 barg (1450 psig) Oil-Free Air and Gas • Prevents system contamination • Reduces the potential for compressed air pipeline fires caused by oil carryover • No costly waste disposal associated with oil-laden condensate • Eliminates the expense and maintenance of oil separation filters at the discharge • MSG centrifugal compressors are designed to be extremely reliable due to: ◦ Conservative high-quality gear design ◦ Long-life pinion bearing design ◦ Thrust loads absorbed at low speed ◦ Stainless steel compression elements Low Compressor Operating Life Cycle Cost MSG centrifugal compressors provide better overall operating efficiency than positive displacement or other centrifugal compressors. • Excellent efficiencies at full load, part load and no load • Low maintenance cost • Increased uptime from high-reliability design (limits the need for multiple unit installations for basic reliability reasons) • No sliding or rubbing parts in the compression process that can cause wear and thereby efficiency loss Engineered Air Applications • Industrial gases • Instrument air • American Petroleum Institute (API) standards • Soot blowers • Large plant air • Power industry related
