HE-S - 1

The world’s most powerful high-speed reciprocating compressor designed to API 618 standards for pipeline, storage, re‑injection and refinery applications. Unique machines Design features With more than a century of experience and continual innovation in reciprocating compressor technology, GE Oil & Gas has one of the most complete lines of advanced and proven API 618 machines. The HE-S is a dramatic evolution of our globally proven heavy duty HE compressor to include high-speed characteristics. It enables the highest performance and productivity in the medium frame range for both gas-engine and electric motor-driven applications. • 15,300 kW (20500 HP) nominal max power at full speed (6 throws) • 2-4-6 throws available Application range Highly reliable HE-S units streamline operations and reduce costs by requiring fewer compressors for the same duty. They are suitable for low and high-speed API 618 and API 11P applications, and are the ideal solution for moderate-speed API 618 service. The HE-S line offers three frame sizes – including the world’s first reciprocating compressor in the 9-10 MW natural gas segment capable of direct coupling with large gas engines. • 6 m/s (1,180 fpm) max average piston speed
