HOERBIGER compressor valves engineered for every application Valves are the components that are subjected to the heaviest loads in compressors and are vital for their efficiency.

11 HOERBIGER compressor valves engineered for every application Valves are the components that are subjected to the heaviest loads in compressors and are vital for their efficiency. Valves must operate under continuously changing pressure loads, frequently under difficult operating conditions. This is why HOERBIGER valves are not simply components, but rather carefully engineered solutions, manufactured for maximum reliability and service life to ensure efficient performance and costeffectiveness. HOERBIGER valves are available for the entire range of often highly sophisticated industrial applications and equipment where reciprocating compressors are used. These include areas such as refineries, the chemical and petrochemical industries, natural gas production and storage, large-area gas supply, production of industrial and high-purity gases, PET applications, breweries, trucking, railroad, and shipping industries, and the entire area of industrial air supply and cooling. We have the right valve for every application. Our engineers can select the optimum system design from a comprehensive range of valve designs, such as Plate valves Ring valves Poppet valves Concentric valves Reed valves and the appropriate unloading systems unloaders plug unloaders actuators to complete our range of valve products. HOERBIGER compressor valves provide consistent and trouble-free service everywhere, often over the course of many years. 9

12 Stepless control and monitoring: Efficient flow rate control is essential in many reciprocating compressor applications. However, most of the devices on the market are slow, inaccurate, and energy-inefficient. With its smart control system HydroCOM, HOERBIGER impressively demonstrates how state-of-the-art electronics, combined with profound compressor process knowledge, simplifies compressor operations and makes them more cost-effective. HydroCOM, the most advanced and efficient system for stepless control of reciprocating compressors, offers a number of benefits: Maximum energy savings, because only the quantity of gas required is compressed Stepless control throughout most of the output range Maximum control dynamics through extremely rapid and precise actuators Complete automation via interfaces to a PCS or process controller Integration of essential elements to form the basis for continuous compressor monitoring 10

13 The key to economic and reliable performance of reciprocating compressors Compressor monitoring with HOERBIGER In many industries, economical or technical process requirements force operators to rely on trouble-free operation of their reciprocating compressors. This means that operators must be continuously informed regarding the operational status of valves, rider and piston rings, packings, controls, crosshead/piston connections and process parameters. Use HOERBIGER HydroCOM and RecipCOM to increase reliability reduce operating costs, and improve compressor productivity. With RecipCOM, the online monitoring system, a compressor is ideally equipped for condition based maintenance. 11

Sealing technologies for reciprocating compressors durable and reliable As with valves, sealing systems are also key components in reciprocating compressor service life.

14 Sealing technologies for reciprocating compressors durable and reliable As with valves, sealing systems are also key components in reciprocating compressor service life. This makes them critical elements for the reliability and availability of the entire system. HOERBIGER can offer the right sealing technology, regardless of whether it involves lubricated or non-lubricated operation, dry or wet, chemically aggressive or inert gases, high pressure or low pressure. The key to smooth compressor operation lies in the correct combination of materials and design for the packing and cylinder rings, perfectly adapted to the compressor s construction and operating conditions. As a result of the continuous vertical integration of our HY-materials, which we develop and manufacture in-house, and which have proven themselves in numerous applications around the world, we ensure the highest quality standards throughout the entire manufacturing process for these critical key components. In HOERBIGER's research laboratories, our engineers are developing and testing continuously improved materials and product designs for operation under the widest variety of operating conditions. In addition to creating quality products for standard applications, they also create customized sealing systems for highly critical applications. With innovative solutions for old problems in the compression industry, such as 100% tight OT oil wiper packings, pressure balancing BOT packing rings, or heat conducting Thermosleeve pressure packing, HOERBIGER proves its leading role in the design of these key components. We have the right rings and packings for your compressors: Packing rings BOT, the pressure balancing ring pair Packing rings for standard applications Cylinder rings Piston rings Rider rings Oil wiper rings for standard applications OT oil wiper rings Pressure packings Water-cooled packing (API 618 compliant) Thermosleeve packing, the heat conducting pressure packing Intermediate packing Oil wiper packing 12

17 HOERBIGER explosion relief valves and check valves: Protection for personnel and equipment HOERBIGER explosion relief valves: Secure protection against explosion effects HOERBIGER check valves: Rapid-response insurance against flow reversal In diesel and gas engines, compressors, drive units and silos, in short wherever oil mist or gas mixtures are generated, or where dusty media are conveyed and stored, dangerous explosions with serious consequences can occur at any time. HOERBIGER check valves offer effective protection against gas flow reversal in processing facilities (e. g. after compressors) and in pipelines, for continuous and especially for pulsating flows. HOERBIGER explosion relief valves offer secure protection in this area. Owing to their low mass, the valves respond extremely quickly, opening with very low pressure differences, and then closing tight again for uninterrupted service. The integrated flame arrester furthermore intercepts jet flames that might occur during an explosion. The unique reaction speed of HOERBIGER check valves is due to the low-mass, frictionless guided valve plate. The use of special materials plus high-quality manufacturing ensure a high level of operational dependability. HOERBIGER check valves stand for HOERBIGER explosion relief valves are thus approved for pressure relief in enclosed spaces, and have proven successful in balancing excess pressure or low pressure conditions. long service life, even in pulsating flows perfect performance, regardless of where they are installed, and minimum pressure loss. HOERBIGER explosion relief valves are designed, manufactured and tested in accordance with the stringent provisions of the relevant classification societies. 15

18 Components and systems for screw compressors Both stationary and portable screw compressors must be able to provide widely varying air quantities in the shortest possible time. This means that they must be equipped with carefully matched peripheral control devices to adapt the output to the demand, maintain oil pressure at sufficiently high levels, and vent the system after the motor is shut off. HOERBIGER offers a complete range of modular components and systems that are used to control the compressor to the precise operating requirements. These components and systems are available for a wide range of compressor types and sizes. Employing fully automatic production processes from the design stage to product delivery, for customized solutions or standard applications, we provide reliable quality at all times.
