Koch Applied Solutions partners with Vilter/Copeland to provide gas compressors.

Vilter sets the industry standard for gas compression solutions in Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) including landfills, waste-water treatment, dairy, and food waste solutions. With proven single-screw compression technology and more than 150 years of industrial experience, Vilter compressors offer some of the highest levels of dependability in the market.

CHP Gas Boosting Packages

Gas turbine generators often need higher fuel pressures than is available on local gas lines, so fuel gas compressors are sometimes needed. Vilter/Copeland compressors are specifically designed to match the operating requirements of gas turbine generators so reliability and efficiency are maximized.

More Details

Parallex™ Slide System

It’s the key to part load efficiencies far superior to twin screw compressors. Capacity and volume slides move independently of each other based on load, eliminating over or under-compression and saving motor horsepower.

Allen-Bradley Programmable Controller

The CompactLogix programmable controller with an A-B PanelView 1000 graphic display provides high performance in a small footprint for stand alone operation or for integrated system control.

Large Capacity Oil Filter

Filters will remove all particles, 25 microns or larger, from the oil before the compressor. Filter assemblies are equipped with transducers to measure pressure drop and shut-off valves for isolation and servicing.

Oil Cooling Options

  • Water cooled
  • Air cooled

Applications

  • Gas liquefaction
  • Vapor recovery
  • Flare gas recovery
  • Coal bed methane recovery
  • Field and fuel gas boosting
