BURTON CORBLIN® PISTON COMPRESSORS ENGINEERED FOR HEAVY DUTY CONTINUOUS OPERATION

Burton Corblin® piston compressors are the pinnacle of over 100 years of experience. Our expertise has been developed over the design, manufacture and installation of more than 2,500 piston compressor packages throughout the world. Our mastery of reciprocating compressor design using non-lubricated cylinders, operating to the highest specification, is unrivalled and undisputed.	From the most basic installation to the most complex and complicated, we evaluate every aspect of the system and take account of the factors that will affect compressor performance, to ensure that the package will operate continuously within its specification and meet the demands placed upon it. Our work is designed to anticipate the unexpected and allow for it. DELIVERED READY FOR INSTALLATION AND START-UP The fully integrated package we supply can incorporate control systems, regulation equipment, gas treatment plant and any other additional modules and utility packages required by the circumstances. Mechanically tested as an integrated package as well as discrete components, the installation undergoes final testing on-site by our highly skilled engineers, with full evaluation of noise levels, vibration, pulsation, temperatures, mechanical loadings, pressures and speed.
DESIGNED AND BUILT TO YOUR INDIVIDUAL REQUIREMENTS Each compressor package we build is created, from concept to construction, specifically to meet individual circumstances.

API 618 PROCESS COMPRESSORS • Conservative operating speed to reduce fatigue • Water cooling of cylinder ends using open-circuit, closed loop, thermo siphon, static fill or other methods as appropriate • Single or dual compartment distance pieces allow for internal pressurisation or gas recovery, or both, if required • Horizontally aligned cylinders with removable liners Howden offers a range of capacity control systems designed to precisely govern and optimise flow rate while reducing energy consumption.	Matching a series of elements and components to optimise the performance of a compressor package within its critical operating parameters is a complex and highly skilled procedure. It demands profound knowledge of the behaviour of the gas as temperatures and pressures change during the compression cycle, as well as comprehensive understanding of the mechanical engineering involved, the customer's precise requirements and the local regulatory framework.
	COMBINED COMPRESSOR TECHNOLOGY Where greater pressures are required, the advantages of piston compressor technology can be combined with an additional diaphragm compression head at the final stage to deliver the high capacities of piston compressors at higher pressure levels. Using Combined Compressor technology, an innovation developed and perfected by Howden, gas volumes of 225 m³/h (140cfm) at pressures up to 410 bar (6,000psi) can be reached.
		Equipment designed to encompass health & safety factors.	Compact assembly on skid.
