Air compressor K-1500, 1700 (analog) 87,000 nm³/hour single-shaft

The 4TYD135 model air compressor is a type of compressor equipment manufactured as an analog to the more common K-1500 and K-1700 models in Russia. It is identical to them in technical specifications but superior in energy efficiency.

Design Structure

Similar to the K-1500 air compressor, the presented model consists of the following elements:

The compressor consists of a housing with a drive shaft installed inside, onto which working impellers with blades are pressed. Systems responsible for control command transmission and regulation, lubrication supply and distribution, performance monitoring, voltage surge protection, and fault signaling are used to connect these components.

Optionally, each unit can be equipped with an automatic monitoring and analysis system. Digital control provides instant access to any equipment operating parameters with the ability to adjust them.

Operating Principle

The operating principle of the K-1500 air compressor is based on dynamic compression of the air flow entering the internal cavity. Compression occurs through continuous rotation of working impellers that impart centrifugal acceleration to the air. Moving sequentially between the unit stages, air is compressed to required pressure parameters and delivered through the outlet port.

Air rotating under the action of working impeller blades generates heat, which is absorbed by gas-water heat exchangers installed between compression stages. Compressor capacity can be regulated according to demand. For this purpose, an inlet guide vane (IGV) is installed on the inlet port, whose rotation increases or decreases the flow cross-section.

Applications

The K-1700 compressor and its analogs are used in various industrial production sectors. Their application is in demand where technological processes require regular supply of compressed air. Such enterprises include metallurgical plants and chemical production facilities.

At RusGazCryo company, you can order supplies of Parma K-1500 air compressor analogs from a manufacturer with thirty years of industry experience. Each equipment unit is supplied with necessary manufacturer documentation, including warranty. In addition to the products themselves, the range includes spare parts for the Parma K1500 compressor.

Air compressor K-3000 (analog) 180,000 nm³/hour single-shaft

The main purpose of model 4TYD150 is atmospheric air compression with subsequent supply to separation units. Installations analogous to the K-3000 compressor are widely used in chemical, metallurgical, and other industries where compressed gas is necessary for technological needs.

Features

The productivity of the K-3000 compressor analog is 180,000 nm³/hour. This is a powerful four-stage installation with steam turbine drive. The installation is also equipped with three intermediate and one final cooler. No gearbox is present.

Manufacturer RusGazKrio develops compressor equipment taking into account consumer needs and operating conditions. More than 70 years of experience in designing and manufacturing centrifugal air compressors allows us to create powerful and reliable equipment with high productivity and low failure rates.

Centrifugal Air Compressor Advantages

Model 4TYD150 is a high-quality, energy-efficient analog of the K-3000 air compressor manufactured by REP Holding, widely used in metallurgical and chemical industries. Compared to the original, it has numerous advantages:

  1. The inlet guide vane, responsible for directing gas flow movement, enables productivity regulation while minimizing losses.
  2. Heat exchangers have low resistance to air flow, guaranteeing high cooling efficiency.
  3. The air compression process in the K-3000 analog approaches isothermal due to staged, three-step compression and the presence of three interstage coolers.
  4. High installation productivity was achieved through joint work of advanced international teams.

Another advantage of equipment supplied by RusGazKrio is the possibility of equipping centrifugal air compressors with the MAPRO system, responsible for analysis, monitoring, and prediction of such rotary installations.

MAPRO Advantages

The system was created by RusGazKrio company for digitizing rotary equipment installed in large workshops of industrial productions. Its main advantages are:

Various equipment for modernization and equipping compressor workshops, including K-3000-63 and oxygen booster compressors, can be purchased from RusGazKrio using a special form on the website.

Types of Industrial Air Compressors

Manufacturers offer various compressor design options. By compression principle, compressor equipment is divided into positive displacement and dynamic types.

  1. Positive displacement industrial high-pressure compressors include reciprocating and screw types. They increase working mixture pressure by reducing volume, while contacting surfaces require lubrication. The technology is universal and inexpensive, but there is a possibility of compressed air contamination.
  2. For compressing large volumes of gaseous mixture in large-scale production, special equipment is used, whose operation is based on centrifugal forces - these are dynamic compressors. The machines are designed for low compression pressure, usually up to 8 kgf/cm² for safe operation, and guarantee stable pressure levels with varying productivity.

Operating Principle of Industrial Centrifugal Air Compressor (Turbocompressor)

Dynamic compression of gaseous medium occurs in channels formed by rapid rotation of radial curved blades of impellers mounted on a common rotor shaft. During circular movement of the first wheel, air enters through filters into the center and moves to the periphery with increasing speed, then enters expanding channels between the blades of the guide device. Speed decreases, pressure increases. Then air moves to subsequent stages with further volume reduction.

Flow movement occurs through the operation of an electric motor connected to the machine through a gearbox. Intermediate coolers are installed to cool air masses.

The turbocompressor is designed for safe operation and equipped with automatic devices for maintaining constant pressure, automatic stops for insufficient lubrication or cooling water, and for starting and regulation.

By number of shafts, the following types of centrifugal units are distinguished:

Application

Centrifugal air compressor installations are in demand in:

The units are used in technological processes where high productivity is required with compact dimensions and relatively low pressure.
