MSG® Integrated gear centrifugal compressor
MSG (Multistage gear) compressors offer excellent design flexibility. MSG compressors are specifically designed for applications in a wide range of configurations to choose from:
Flow rates from 70 to 3800 m3/min (2500 to 135,000 CFM)
Input capacity of 18,650 kW (25,000 hp) or more
Discharge pressure up to 100 barg (1450 psig)
Oil-free air and gas
Prevent system contamination
Reduce the probability of compressed air pipeline fire caused by oil entrainment
There is no costly waste disposal associated with oil-containing condensate
Eliminates the expense and maintenance costs of oil separation filters at discharge locations
High reliability
MSG centrifugal compressors use a more reliable design, all from:
Robust high quality gear design
Long life gear bearing design
Absorb thrust load at low speed
Stainless steel compression element
Low compressor life cycle cost
Compared to positive displacement or other centrifugal compressors, MSG centrifugal compressors have better overall efficiency.
Excellent efficiency under full load, partial load and no load
Low maintenance cost
Increased uptime through highly reliable design (reducing the need to install multiple units for reliability reasons)
There are no sliding or friction parts that can cause wear and loss of efficiency during compression
