The J.A. Becker & Söhne V 700/350 NG4 model is a top-class, water-cooled natural gas compressor, specifically designed to meet the highest pressure demands. This equipment reaches a maximum final pressure of 350 bar, thus offering an ideal solution for industrial applications requiring extremely high-pressure natural gas. The compressor is a distinguished piece of the JAB product range, combining reliability, efficiency, and long service life.
The V 700/350 NG4 is not a „standard product” (NO 08/15 PRODUCTS), but a carefully designed, high-performance machine with numerous advantageous features:
Excellent Efficient Cooling: Water cooling ensures optimal operating temperature even under the most intensive loads. This is critically important for increasing the compressor's service life and for the efficiency of gas compression.
Fully Automatic Discharge: The fully automated depressurization (discharge) function facilitates maintenance and ensures safe shutdown, minimizing the need for human intervention.
Long Maintenance Intervals: The robust construction and quality components guarantee long uptime between two maintenance cycles, thereby reducing downtime and operating costs.
Outstanding Quality in Every Respect: The equipment is manufactured according to J.A. Becker & Söhne quality standards, ensuring reliable and stable operation.
The performance and parameters of the V 700/350 NG4 compressor are detailed in the table below:
| Parameter | Value | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Form | 3.5 – 4 bar | Inlet pressure range |
| Maximum Final Pressure | max. 350 bar | The maximum pressure achievable by the equipment |
| Volume Flow Rate (at 300 bar) | 7,173 l/min | in case of 2.0 bar pre-pressure |
| Volume Flow Rate (at 300 bar) | 11,955 l/min | in case of 4.0 bar pre-pressure |
| Compression Stages / Cylinder | 5 / 6 | Number of compression steps |
| Electric Motor Power | 160 kW | Drive unit power |
| Noise Level | approx. 95 dB(A) | Measured at a distance of 1 meter |
The compressor performs natural gas compression in 5 compression stages with the aid of 6 cylinders. The motor power is 160 kW, which provides sufficient force to reach the final pressure of 350 bar.
The flow rate data highlights the flexibility of the equipment:
At lower pressure (2.0 bar), the maximum flow rate is 7.173 liters/min (to reach 300 bar).
At higher pressure (4.0 bar), the flow rate significantly increases to 11.955 liters/min, enabling more efficient utilization of the system.
The V 700/350 NG4 compressor is primarily intended for natural gas (NG) compression and is an ideal choice for areas where large volumes of gas need to be compressed to extremely high pressures. This may include:
Refueling Infrastructure: High-pressure natural gas (CNG) refueling stations where high pressure is required for filling storage systems.
Industrial Processes: Manufacturing processes that require high-pressure gas to optimize reactions or transportation.
Energy Solutions: Gas storage systems or pilot facilities.
The water-cooled design of the equipment guarantees stable operation, minimizing power loss due to temperature fluctuations or premature wear of components. The noise level of 95 dB(A) at a distance of 1 meter is acceptable in an industrial environment, but noise reduction regulations must be considered during installation.
