Catalog literature: Gas Booster Catalog.pdf Acrobat DC

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
  • Max GAS supply pressure: 2500 psi
  • Max rated GAS outlet pressure: 2500 psi
  • Static outlet stall pressure formula: 5 Pa + Ps (Pa = air drive pressure, Ps = GAS supply pressure)
  • Min AIR drive pressure: 20 psi
  • Max AIR drive pressure: 130 psi

Sample Performance Characteristics:

  • Boost 12 SCFM Gas from 100 psi to 500 psi while using 65 SCFM Air @ 90 psig supply pressure
