GEA has announced the release of its new compressor the HG44e HC for hydrocarbons
The advantages of the proven HG44e range have now been transferred to the compressors for hydrocarbons. The new, more efficient HG44e HC compressors officially launch in February 2016 and will replace the HG4 HC range.
Since April 2014 the HG44e offered key advantages over the previous series. It combines the time-tested reliability and running smoothness of the preceding model HG4 with new and enhanced efficiency.
The HG44e HC, the new compressor version for hydrocarbons, combines high efficiency, running smoothness, compactness and a long life cycle.
Due to optimized drive gear components and an adjusted specific oil filling, the HG44e HC offers highest performance, even under very demanding conditions of hydrocarbons.
The GEA compressors of the hydrocarbon range meet the requirements of the F-gas regulation. They can be used for the long-term and therefore increase the planning dependability for system manufacturers, users and investors.
The HG44e HC series, in comparison to its predecessors, now offers four instead of three model sizes and covers the range of maximum displacements from 41.3 to 67.0 m³/h.
In addition, the largest version, the HG44e/770-4 HC compressor, offers almost 20 per cent more displacement with its 67 m³/h than the largest HG4 HC model and replaces the smallest model size of the former HG5 HC range with 62.9 m³/h.
As a result, this series of models guarantees the most extensive performance coverage of any brand in the industry.
