CORKEN – Catering Your Gas Compression Needs

1. CORKEN – Catering Your Gas Compression Needs

2. CORKEN compressors are well known for their reliability and performance delivery for gas compression applications. They are favored by professionals seeking gas compression that’s free from impurities. However, based on applications, there are various models that CORKEN offers on the market.This article dives into the world of CORKEN compressors, examining their types, uses, and important features to consider when selecting one.Getting to Know CORKEN CompressorsCORKEN specializes in Non-Lubricated, reciprocating compressors, also referred to as piston compressors. These compressors utilize a piston driven by a crankshaft to pressurize gas within a cylinder. CORKEN offers two configurations:1.Horizontal Vertical

3. Vertical compressors are typically offered for smaller capacity applications with low to medium range pressure applications while the Horizontal compressors are used for higher capacities with medium to High Pressure applications.A notable benefit of CORKEN compressors is their non-lubricated construction and leakage control features. This eliminates the chance of oil contamination in the compressed gas flow along with leak arresting features suiting them for critical / hazardous applications.

4. Exploring Popular CORKEN Compressors and Their Common Uses • Let’s take a look at some popular types of CORKEN compressors and where they are typically employed: • Compressors for Unloading Application • Proven solutions for transfer of fluid (liquid and vapor both) from transport vessels like tank cars / wagons / Fleet Vessels to Storage tanks. • Used for almost all liquids stored under vapor pressure like LPG, Propane, Butane-n, Ammonia, Propylene, Isobutylene, Butadiene -1,3, etc.

5. Capacity varying from single tanker to multiple tank cars / wagons. • Similar systems used for a) Storage Decommissioning activities or for b) Emergency Rescue Vehicles (Mobile Mounted Compressors) for accident met vehicles • Process Gas Compressors: • Applications for compression from Pipeline to Plant, Reactor Vessel Recovery, Recovery compressor for Raw material reuse, Reactor Feed Compression. • Process Gas compressors with requirement of Leak arrest and Non-lubricated Gas properties with skid automation at plant level for precise control and monitoring.

6. Key Features offered with a CORKEN Compressor: • Here are some important factors to keep in mind when deciding on a CORKEN compressor:Air-Cooled Machines: CORKEN predominantly offers Air-cooled solutions for most of its applications which are efficient and work without any utility (water) required for compressor application. • Single-Stage vs. Two-Stage Compression: Based on application and delivery pressures required, Single-stage compressors are suitable for pressure applications, while two-stage compressors deliver higher discharge pressures for more demanding tasks.

7. Material Options: CORKEN offers versatile options based on the gas mixture suitability for soft parts. Also, corrosion resistant coating for ferrous parts are available for critical and corrosive applications. • Leak Arrest: Different options for leak arresting like additional packing set configurations (single, double or triple) based on API 618, offering of Nitrogen Purge Kit in addition to above for ensuring virtually leakproof solutions for critical / hazardous and toxic applications like Butadiene, Carbon Monoxide, etc. • Horsepower: Optimum Horsepower requirements using a CORKEN compressor for savings on power. • Maintenance and Support: With local experienced service team and
