Liquid Ring Compressor Series BKA – BKN – BKM
BKA and BKN 1-stage liquid ring compressors with rotor between bearings. Sealing with mechanical seal or packing glands. BKM are 1-stage monobloc compressors with mechanical seal sealing.
Operational Parameters
Capacity: _____________________ up to 10.350 m3/h
Pressure: _________________________ up to 1,6 bar
Maximum Rotation: ________________ 3500 RPM
Project Features
- The liquid ring compressor operates with auxiliary liquid (usually water) that alternately fills and leaves the rotor alveoli. There are openings in the walls of the side plates that allow communication with filled or empty alveoli, respectively. Thus, while air (or gas) is sucked in through one opening, it is discharged through the other, with the continuous and regular transport of air (or gas) occurring through compression. The maximum degree of compression that can be achieved depends on the energy acquired by the liquid in motion, its nature, and the rotation speed of the rotors.
Advantages
- Completely oil-free compression;
- High operational reliability;
- Availability of construction in anti-corrosive alloys;
- Insensitive to impurities or small foreign bodies aspirated;
- Lower gas outlet temperature than other compressor types;
- Low noise and vibration.
Applications
- Liquid ring compressors have applications in a wide range of industrial processes, such as: air and gas compression in general, bubbling in fermentation tanks and fermenters, agitation of baths and liquids in general, air supply to burners, for use in the chemical, food, and other industries.
