PDC's diaphragm nitrogen compressors are the preferred choice when contamination-free, leak-tight nitrogen compression is required. PDC diaphragm nitrogen compressors are designed to afford you high quality, high reliability, low maintenance and extended service intervals. PDC users have reported up to 40,000 hours without any parts replacement needed except for oil changes. Based upon our extensive experience in compressor technology, and our state-of-the-art engineering and manufacturing capabilities, we work with our customers to provide the optimum solution to satisfy their nitrogen gas compression needs. Since 1977 PDC manufactures both standard and custom designed nitrogen compressors with a comprehensive assortment of options. We furnish a wide range of equipment from basic units to turnkey, skid-mounted and computer controlled systems. Our nitrogen compressors range in size from 3 hp to 200 hp (3 to 150 Kw), discharge pressures vary from 50 psig to 7500 psig (3 barg to 517 barg).
PDC diaphragm nitrogen compressor includes: State-of-the-art manufacturing - All critical components are manufactured at PDC, assuring the highest levels of quality control. This also allows us the flexibility to accommodate tight delivery schedules. Enhanced diaphragm life - All aspects of our diaphragm nitrogen compressor design are intended to enhance component life, improve operation and reduce and simplify maintenance. Diaphragm cavity contours, which control stress in the diaphragms, are precisely machined to provide uniform stress distribution. These cavity contours are computer engineered utilizing Finite Element Analysis techniques. Diaphragm surfaces are specially treated to extend fatigue life. Automatic unloading system - PDC's nitrogen compressor is automatically re-primed at start-up. Incorrect priming will cause cavitation inside the compressor and could lead to damage ofthe heads, head bolts, diaphragms, O-rings, or the process and hydraulic systems. Automatic unloading eliminates the need for technicians presence to re-prime the compressor. Hydraulic oil system -The hydraulic system is designed to assure uniform diaphragm deflection, prevent knocks, vibration, cavitation and yield smooth, quiet compressor operation. Unique oil distribution techniques are employed to eliminate pressure differentials and gradients. The system utilizes an automatic priming pump, positive displacement high-pressure injection pump and oil relief valve with bypass valve for smooth, easy starting. High Product purity -The triple diaphragm set ensures that the process gas is isolated from the hydraulic oil. Environmentally safe -PDC uses static seals and there is no migration of nitrogen gas to the crankcase. The crankcase does not require purging or venting, so there is no leakage of process gas to the atmosphere Corrosion resistant wetted materials -All process contacting parts are made from stainless steel and high strength polymers. This helps to prevent premature failure of the diaphragms and reduces the cost of spares needed, reduces maintenance frequency and reduces down-time. Safety interlocks -Features include shutdowns for low suction, high discharge, low oil, low water coolant and diaphragm or O-ring failure. Audible and visual enunciators can be supplied for an added level of protection. The nitrogen compressor will be completely instrumented for automatic operation. Lower Energy Costs- Duplex and two-stage diaphragm nitrogen compressors are horizontally opposed designs which reduce horsepower requirements and energy costs. International standards compliance - PDC diaphragm nitrogen compressors can be designed and certified to comply with European, American, Canadian, Japanese and other international directives including the National Electrical Code (NEC), Canadian Standards Association (CSA), High Pressure Gas Safety Institute of Japan (KHK), and the European Union's Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) and ATEX directive for machinery. Typical applications include but are not limited to:- * Nitrogen re-fueling stations for vehicles, buses and material handling * Filling & off-loading nitrogen gas from tube trailers * Cylinder filling compressor with nitrogen gas & bulk storage tanks * Blending, recycling & mixing of nitrogen gas * Nitrogen gas for semi-Conductor & electronics manufacturing * Nitrogen feedstock for chemical, petrochemical & pharmaceutical industries * Nitrogen gas for glass manufacturing * Nitrogen gas is used in incandescent and fluorescent lighting, and other types of gas discharge tubes * Nitrogen as preservative to extend shelf-life of contents * High pressure boosting and storage of nitrogen gas from on-site gas generation systems
