Safety & Technical Superiority
Handling gases like CNG and Hydrogen under high pressure demands the highest safety standards. To ensure operational safety:
Each booster features a dedicated leak-check valve to detect internal leakage instantly.
In case of oil or gas discharge from the inspection port, the system can be shut down immediately.
Special stainless-steel piping and NRVs (Non-Return Valves) are used as per customer specifications.
The system design complies with international safety norms for high-pressure gas systems.
Booster Models Developed
With continuous R&D and customer collaboration, LHS has developed several proven models successfully installed across industries:
- CNG Gas Booster / Intensifier – 10 bar to 250 bar (2-Stage)
- Hydrogen-CNG Booster / Intensifier – 10 bar to 1200 bar (Single & Multi-Stage)
- Water Booster – up to 1200 bar (Single & 2-Stage)
Our CNG intensifiers are designed to work efficiently with 22 kW and 37 kW motors, ensuring optimal compression and energy efficiency.
Working Principle of a Hydraulic Gas Booster
A hydraulic gas booster increases gas pressure using hydraulic energy.
Process Overview:
- Low-pressure gas enters the booster.
- The hydraulic cylinder drives a reciprocating piston powered by hydraulic oil.
- The piston compresses the gas in the chamber, increasing pressure.
- Check valves control gas direction and prevent backflow.
- Cooling jackets or heat exchangers maintain safe operating temperatures.
- The high-pressure gas exits for downstream use.
This design ensures smooth, efficient, and oil-free compression, making it ideal for CNG, Hydrogen, and other flammable gases.
