Overview
Our API 618 compressors are well-known for decades for low pulsation and vibration, which translates directly to exceptional efficiency, low maintenance, and low power consumption. They are used across a wide range of refinery, petrochemical, and natural gas applications including hydrocracking, ammonia, refrigeration, re-injection, and gas lift.
*At max. speed and max. number of cylinders
One century of hydrogen experience
Our technologies and solutions for API 618 process compressors are known in the refinery and petrochemical industry for unparalleled reliability and efficiency. With more than 800 units installed for refinery hydrogen applications, our API 618 compressors can manage hydrogen compression up to 170 bar with compression ratio high enough to match any requirements. Optimized for sliding pressure and capacity operations, our technology can also guarantee best-in-field efficiency for storage applications.
