Overview
T-Style horizontal compressors offer oil-free compression and have three sets of segmented packing per piston rod for maximum leakage control. In applications where leakage containment is critical, a T-Style is required.
- Cylinder sizes are 2.75", 3.25", 4", 5", 6" and 8"
- Single-, two-stage designs
- Distance pieces can be purged for maximum leakage control
- Three sets of packing per piston rod
- Oil-free gas compression
- Available with variable clearance heads to balance loads on two-stage compressors
- Weld flange connections (2.75" cylinder is available with Class 1500 RF flanges only)
- Single and double-acting designs

- All cylinders and heads are made of ductile iron for maximum thermal shock endurance
- The T-Style provides the highest level of leakage containment
- Typically used in corrosive and toxic applications where oil-free gas and maximum leakage containment are required
- Packing configuration eliminates rod over travel and oil carryover so there is no contamination of the process gas stream
- The two distance pieces can be purged for maximum leakage control
- Valve design offers quiet operation, high efficiency and greater durability
- The step-cut design of the self-lubricating piston rings provides higher efficiencies during the life of the piston ring
- Positively locked pistons allows end clearance to be precisely set to provide maximum efficiency and long life
- Cast iron crossheads provide superior resistance to corrosion and galling
- Pressure-lubricated crankcase with oil filter and oil coolerkeeps the internals well lubricated at all times and minimizes premature wear
- Crankcase oil heater is available for cold climates
