The J.A. Becker & Söhne V 5740/300 NG40 model is a pinnacle, specially designed natural gas booster compressor equipment that offers outstanding performance and reliability to meet the highest pressure requirements. This high-performance unit is the ideal solution for industrial applications where a significant increase in gas pressure level is required, up to 300 bar operating pressure.
The V 5740/300 NG40 compressor is not an „off-the-shelf” product; it was developed keeping in mind the engineering precision of J.A. Becker & Söhne and long-term, trouble-free operation.
This compressor offers the perfect combination of efficiency, automation, and longevity:
Outstandingly Efficient Cooling: The advanced cooling system of the equipment ensures the optimal dissipation of heat generated during the compression process. This is crucial not only for regulating the gas temperature for safe operation but also increases the overall energy efficiency of the system, reducing operating costs.
Fully Automatic Discharge: The fully automated depressurization function guarantees safe and easy shutdown, as well as maintenance preparations. This minimizes the need for human intervention, increases safety, and optimizes downtime.
Long Maintenance Intervals: Thanks to its robust construction and high-quality components, the V 5740/300 NG40 compressor features extremely long maintenance cycles. This significantly reduces necessary downtime and annual service costs, maximizing availability.
First-Class Quality In Every Respect: Becker & Söhne's commitment to quality is evident in every single component, ensuring reliable operation even in the toughest industrial environments.
The performance and parameters of the V 5740/300 NG40 compressor are detailed in the table below, showcasing the equipment's capabilities under various inlet conditions.
| Parameter | Value | Unit | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Volume Flow (Volume Flow) | 136.0 – 189.0 | m³/h | Nominal Range |
| Maximum Operating Pressure | 300 | bar | System Final Pressure |
| Inlet Pressure (Inlet Pressure) | 30 / 35 / 40 | bar | Three different inlet options |
| Flow Rate (l/min) | 2.267 / 2.683 / 3.150 | l/min | Flow rate adjusted to the inlet pressure |
| Compression Stages / Cylinder | 3 / 4 | – | Compression Build-up |
| Electric Motor Power | 27 | kW | Drive unit power |
| Rotational Speed (Rotational Speed) | 1.000 | rpm | Nominal engine speed |
The flexibility of the compressor is well illustrated by how the volume flow changes depending on the inlet pressure:
| Inlet Pressure (bar) | Flow Rate (l/min) | Flow Rate (m³/h) |
|---|---|---|
| 30 | 2.267 | 136.0 |
| 35 | 2.683 | 161.0 (Based on estimated interpolation) |
| 40 | 3.150 | 189.0 |
Note: The values 136.0 m³/h and 189.0 m³/h are the extreme values of the specified range.
The V 5740/300 NG40 natural gas after-compressor is excellently suited for:
Natural Gas Grid Booster Compression: For boosting existing grid pressure to meet the requirements of higher pressure storage or distribution.
Preparation for CNG/LNG Plants: Preparation of natural gas for storage in compressed or liquefied form, where 300 bar pressure is essential.
Industrial Gas Supply: Support for processes requiring high-pressure natural gas for efficient operation.
