Boosters, Amplifiers & Pumps

Features and Benefits of Gas Boosters, Air Amplifiers and Air-Driven Liquid Pumps

Air-driven reciprocating gas boosters are suitable for the oil-free compression of gases and air. They are also a simple, cost-effective means for gas pressure intensification, scavenging, or recirculation at a wide range of pressures. These units require only a compressed air source to operate. Air amplifiers are a cost-effective method of boosting available shop air pressure without replacing your existing compressor system. These air amplifiers are powered by some of the inlet air instead of electricity, so they are cost-effective and can be used to boost air pressure for specific machines. Air-driven, piston-style reciprocating pumps are a fast and effective pumping solution, capable of delivering a wide range of pressures and flow rates. The pumps get their power from a compressed air source and combine positive displacement with the capability to hold pressure for long periods of time. A variety of material and seal options allow almost any fluid to be pressurized.

Types of Boosters, Amplifiers & Pumps

Gas Boosters

We have single or double-acting and two-stage models, as well as double air head, available in single and two-stage boosters. Double-acting units utilize the inlet gas pressure to assist in compressing the gas. The exhausted drive air is used as an effective cooling media to lessen the heat from compression. Gas boosters are intrinsically safe because electrical power is not required. There are a variety of materials, seal options, and features that enable our high-pressure gas boosters to meet the needs of most compressed gases, including oxygen, helium, hydrogen, nitrogen, and argon. Gas boosters can be paired up in series or parallel to further increase their pressure and volume capabilities. Pressures to 36,000 psi for most gases and 5,000 psi for oxygen, with no electrical power required. The use of high-pressure seal lubrication is not required, and the boosters are contamination free. A variety of pressure and compression ratios are available.

Air Amplifiers

Air amplifiers are stocked domestically in a variety of standard designs and offers, with many options for customization. Key features include air pressures ranging from 30 psi to 4,350 psi, the ability to run without electrical power, lightweight and compact design, easy to install and operate, single or double-acting, stall at target pressure and automatically restart when pressure drops 1%, seals made from PTFE, and some models have an unregulated pilot air connection for better control and easy restarting. These units are compact, lightweight, and can be conveniently moved from machine to machine, as needed, in helping to boost the air pressure and efficiency of pneumatic tools and machinery. Our air amplifiers are competitively priced and economical to operate because they don’t use electricity. These units are a perfect solution for an overburdened air system.

Air-Driven Liquid Pumps

These pumps get their power from a compressed air source and combine positive displacement with the capability to hold pressure for long periods of time. A variety of material and seal options allow almost any fluid to be pressurized. These pumps are rugged and rebuildable and can tolerate all installation positions and even some of the most extreme environments. Features include discharge pressures from 60–101,000 psi, temperature range from -20°F to 140°F, drive air pressures range from 1–10 bar, standard and optional seals available, pilot air control for remote operation standard on many models, external spool valve for quick maintenance on most models and safe for hazardous areas (no electrical power required).
