Description
Haskel Model 8AGD-5 Air-Driven Gas Booster
Catalog literature: Gas Booster Catalog.pdf
With a nominal pressure ratio of 5:1, the Haskel model 8AGD-5 8″ Double-Acting, Single Stage Gas Booster utilizes air pressure to boost gas pressures to a maximum of 2500 psi PSIG.
Features & Benefits:
- Reliable, easy to maintain, compact and robust
- No heat, flame or spark risk
- Infinitely variable cycling speed and output
- Pneumatic driven units do not require electrical connections
- Easy to apply automatic controls
- No limit or adverse affect to continuous stop/start applications
- Seal systems designed for long working life
- No air line lubricator required
- Hydrocarbon free – separation between air and gas sections
- Built-in cooling (most models)
- Suitable for most gases
- Ability to stall at any predetermined pressure and hold the fixed pressure without consuming power or generating heat
Technical Data:
- Ratio: 5:1
- Min GAS supply pressure: 50 psi
