Product Overview
The H₂ reciprocating compressor is a precision-engineered system designed for the safe and efficient compression of hydrogen gas in various industrial and energy applications. With capabilities ranging from low to ultra-high pressure, these compressors play a critical role in supporting the global transition to hydrogen-based energy systems.
Whether used for hydrogen production, refueling infrastructure, storage, or transportation, this type of compressor offers exceptional gas purity, operational safety, and long-term reliability.
Core Features
- High Compression Pressure
Delivers discharge pressures from 100 to over 1000 bar, meeting the demands of hydrogen storage and mobility applications.
- Oil-Free Technology
The dry-running, non-lubricated design ensures contaminant-free hydrogen, ideal for fuel cells, semiconductors, and pipeline injection.
- Hydrogen-Compatible Materials
Built with embrittlement-resistant materials such as stainless steel and alloy coatings to ensure safety and durability in high-pressure environments.
- Multi-Stage Design
Utilizes up to 5 compression stages to achieve smooth pressure build-up, reduce inter-stage temperatures, and improve compression efficiency.
- Compact & Modular Structure
Space-saving layout suitable for containerized systems, on-site integration, or skid-mounted deployment.
- Advanced Safety & Monitoring
Features include explosion-proof enclosures, overpressure protection, hydrogen leak detection, and compliance with global hydrogen safety standards.
