Haskel 83459 Hydrogen Booster System

Haskel 83459 Hydrogen Booster System

NOTE: this system uses a version of the model AGT-15/30 Gas Booster modified for HYDROGEN service.

Features & Benefits:

• Plumbed for inert gases in single arrangements
• Supplied with a range of controls: air controls, air pilot switches (optional) for automated stop/start control, relief device, pressure isolation and vent valves
• All components are mounted and plumbed in an open stainless steel frame with a sloped front panel
• Safety relief devices are standard on all gas booster systems for maximum operational safety
• Allows 90 to 95% use of cylinder gas to maintain process pressure when cylinder pressure drops
• Can charge a receiver to even higher pressure level, thus storing a volume of gas for rapid release

Applications:

• Gas accumulator charging
• Pressure & leak testing various pressure containing components
• Pressurization of gas cylinders
• Gas transfer, boosting or mixing

Standard System Components:

1. Air-driven gas booster with external pilot modification to enable use of external air pilot switches to automatically start and stop the booster.
2. Adjustable inlet air pilot switch used to stop booster when the gas supply pressure falls below the adjusted minimum set point.
3. Adjustable remote-set outlet air pilot switch used to stop the booster when the outlet pressure reaches the adjusted maximum set point.
4. Outlet pressure gauge, 0-6000 psi, safe case design, 100mm diameter, panel mounted with bar/psi dual scale. Accuracy +/- 1% FSD.
5. Inlet pressure gauge, 0-3000 psi, safe case design, 100mm diameter, panel mounted with bar/psi dual scale. Accuracy +/- 1% FSD.
6. Inlet & outlet gas filters, 5-micron rated, used to stop any ingested contamination from entering or exiting the booster (e.g. while changing out gas bottles).
7. Roll bar frame with sloping operator panel into which the booster and controls are mounted. Frames are brushed 316 stainless steel.
8. Air filter in-line with 40-micron filtration to maintain air drive quality.
9. Adjustable air regulator used to set the air drive pressure, adjustable between 0-150 psi.
10. 25mm air pressure gauge, 0-160 psi, used to indicate the air drive pressure.
11. Manual speed control valve, panel mounted, used to adjust the cycling speed at which the booster operates.
12. Adjustable Haskel relief valve used to protect the booster and other components from over pressurization, piped to a common vent connection.
13. Adjustable remote-set air pilot regulator used to change the set point for the remote set outlet air pilot switch.
14. Nameplate (not shown).
15. 25mm air pressure gauge, 0-160 psi, panel mounted, used to indicate the adjustable remote set regulator adjusted pressure.
