Description
DFD-1.36/(30-50)-250 Natural Gas Compressor
High-Pressure Natural Gas Compressor for Pipeline Boosting & Industrial Applications
The DFD-1.36/(30-50)-250 Natural Gas Compressor is a high-pressure reciprocating compressor designed for natural gas boosting, pipeline transmission, gas transportation, and industrial gas compression applications.
The compressor is designed for use with desulfurized and dehydrated natural gas, providing a reliable solution for applications where natural gas pressure needs to be increased for transportation, processing, storage, or downstream industrial use.
Its D-type symmetrical balanced structure, reciprocating piston configuration, and integrated skid-mounted design provide a practical combination of operational stability, compact installation, and simplified project integration.
Key Features
D-Type Symmetrical Balanced Structure
The DFD-1.36/(30-50)-250 utilizes a D-type symmetrical balanced reciprocating structure designed to support stable operation and minimize mechanical vibration during continuous compression.
The balanced configuration helps provide smooth compressor operation while supporting reliable high-pressure gas compression.
Oil-Free Lubrication Configuration
The compressor incorporates an oil-free lubrication arrangement designed to minimize the possibility of lubricating oil entering the gas compression chamber.
A double-middle-body configuration helps separate the lubrication system from the compression section, supporting cleaner natural gas compression.
This makes the compressor suitable for applications where controlling lubricant contamination in the compressed gas is important.
High-Efficiency Reciprocating Compression
The reciprocating piston design provides controlled multi-stage gas compression and is suitable for continuous natural gas boosting and transmission applications.
The optimized compressor configuration is designed to support:
- Stable gas compression
- Reduced vibration
- Reduced operating noise
- Reliable continuous operation
- Reduced maintenance requirements
- Efficient natural gas pressure boosting
Water-Cooled Compression System
The compressor utilizes a water-cooling arrangement for thermal management during operation.
Effective cooling helps control operating temperatures during high-pressure compression and supports reliable compressor performance during continuous-duty applications.
Skid-Mounted Installation
The compressor can be supplied as an integrated skid-mounted package, with the main compressor and associated equipment arranged on a common base.
The skid-mounted configuration provides:
- Simplified transportation
- Reduced site installation work
- Faster equipment positioning
- Integrated equipment arrangement
- Simplified commissioning
- Compact installation footprint
