RIX 2V compressors feature stout
crosshead construction with
totally oil-free compression. Gases
commonly compressed include
Oxygen, Hydrogen, Argon, Helium,
Nitrogen, Air, Natural Gas,
CO2, Hydrocarbon mixes and
various other rare gases.
FEATURES
Cylinders are single-acting
and air-cooled; water-cooled
cylinders optional. Watercooled heat exchangers
are also available.
Gapless piston rings provide
for maximum sealing and
long life. Various Teflon
based materials are available
for differing applications.
Optional piston rod seals
provide capture of hazardous
and rare gases.
CONSTRUCTION
Crankcase: Single throw
crankshaft with roller main
bearings, sleeve-type rod
bearings and needle piston
pin bearings. The crankcase
is splash lubricated.
Cylinders: Air-cooled
cylinders consist of finned
aluminum castings with
pressed-in hardened stainless
steel liners. 100% stainless
steel air-cooled cylinders
are available in various
grades (316, 17-4, 416 etc).
Water-cooled cylinders
are also available.
Heads and Valves: Heads are
stainless steel or aluminum.
Special materials are available.
Valves in air-cooled cylinders
are stainless steel reed type.
Piston Rings: Piston and
rider rings are made from
self-lubricating Teflon based
materials. High pressure
stages use RIX patented
spiral rings with a close
fitting floating piston for
tight sealing and long life.
In some high pressure
applications, ceramic pistons
with teflon seals are used.
