The J.A. Becker & Söhne V 200/300 NG8 model is a skid-mounted, four-stage natural gas aftercooler compressor, specifically designed for high-performance, reliable gas compression tasks. This equipment offers an ideal solution for industrial applications where precise control and long service life are essential for generating high-pressure natural gas.
The V 200/300 NG8 compressor reflects J.A. Becker & Söhne's commitment to quality and performance, ensuring continuous and efficient operation even in the most demanding environments.
The outstanding features of the V 200/300 NG8 compressor provide a significant advantage over competitors:
No „Average” Product (NO 08/15 PRODUCTS): According to Becker's philosophy, every piece of equipment meets the highest quality standards, tolerating no compromises in terms of performance and reliability.
High-Efficiency Cooling: The advanced cooling system guarantees optimal operating temperature in the compression stages, which increases efficiency and minimizes wear. This is particularly important for managing the heat generated during multi-stage compression.
Fully Automatic Discharge: The built-in automatic purging function ensures the regular and safe removal of condensate and unwanted by-products from the system, thereby maintaining continuous operating conditions and reducing the need for human intervention.
Long Maintenance Intervals: Thanks to its robust construction and high-quality components, maintenance cycles have been significantly extended, which reduces downtime and operating costs.
The performance and parameters of the V 200/300 NG8 compressor are detailed in the following table, which presents the precise specifications of the unit:
| Parameter | Value | Unit of Measure | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inlet pressure | 5 / 6,5 / 8 | bar | Operation capability at multiple inlet pressures |
| Volume flow | 2.233 / 2.808 / 3.433 | l/min | Volume flow rate adjusted to inlet pressure |
| Maximum Operating Pressure | 300 | bar | The achievable final pressure of the compressor |
| Compression Stages / Cylinder | 4 / 4 | – | Four-stage compression system |
| Electric motor power | 44 | kW | Drive unit power |
| Rotational speed | 1.500 | rpm | Nominal engine speed |
| Gas type | Natural Gas (Erdgas) | – | Optimized specifically for natural gas compression |
The V 200/300 NG8 model offers flexible performance adapted to different inlet pressures:
Lower inlet pressure (5 bar): Achieving a volumetric flow rate of 3,433 l/min at a final pressure of 300 bar.
Medium inlet pressure (6.5 bar): Achieving a volumetric flow rate of 2,808 l/min at a final pressure of 300 bar.
Higher inlet pressure (8 bar): Achieving a volumetric flow rate of 2,233 l/min at a final pressure of 300 bar.
This flexibility makes the V 200/300 NG8 ideal for locations where the inlet gas supply may fluctuate.
The V 200/300 NG8 is an extremely robust, stationary compressor specifically developed for natural gas booster compression needs. The four-stage design allows for the efficient and controlled build-up of gas pressure up to the required 300 bar operating pressure.
The compressor's suction pressure (5, 6.5, or 8 bar) operates across a wide scale, ensuring compatibility with various natural gas infrastructures. The 44 kW electric drive provides stable performance at a speed of 1500 rpm, minimizing mechanical stress.
Application areas:
Natural Gas Filling Stations: Ideal for high-performance topping-up, where the goal is fast and efficient filling of vehicles (e.g., CNG buses, trucks).
Industrial Gas Supply Networks: For increasing gas pressure in transmission or distribution networks.
Energy Facilities: Any location where a reliable, large volume of natural gas needs to be compressed to 300 bar.
Characteristically for J.A. Becker & Söhne products, the V 200/300 NG8 is built for durability and long-term reliability. The design with four cylinders and four stages ensures optimal heat distribution and minimal load for every single component.
The high-quality cooling system is crucial for maximizing the compressor's lifespan, as strict control over the compressed gas temperature is essential for protecting the valves and seals. The automatic draining function further reduces the need for manual intervention, allowing the equipment to operate virtually on a „set it and forget it” basis between scheduled maintenance cycles.
This compressor is considered a first-class product in every respect, guaranteeing continuous, high-capacity natural gas after-compression.
