Crankshaft
Ductile iron crankshaft is precision ground with integral counterweights for smooth, quiet operation
Rifle drilling ensures positive oil distribution to wrist pin and connecting rod bearings
Main bearings are built to last and will not need to be replaced under normal operating conditions
O-ring Seals
All pressure containing parts are sealed with FKM or PTFE O-rings to ensure positive sealing under all operating conditions, eliminating leakage and maintenance problems
Crosshead Assemblies
The ductile iron crossheads are designed with special machine lube channels for maximum lubrication and wear resistance
Wrist Pin Needle Bearings
Steel wrist pins are free of yellow metals and are designed to last a lifetime
Large roller steel needle bearings provide long life under high rod load applications and will not need to be replaced under normal operating conditions
Superior wrist pin lubrication is assured under all load conditions
Piston Rod Seals
Self-Adjusting Piston Rod Seals provide maximum sealing and minimum friction
Loaded glass filled PTFE seals maintain constant sealing pressure around the piston rods, preventing crankcase oil contamination and cylinder blow-by
Piston Rings
Special pressure assisted piston ring design features a chamber that ensures pressure behind the ring to provide maximum sealing efficiency with minimal friction wear
Constructed of self-lubricating PTFE for positive sealing
Design results in peak performance and extended compressor service life
Valves
Constructed of self-lubricating PEEK material, Blackmer valve plates provide superior sealing characteristics, high efficiency and durability
PEEK materials provide extended life due to low mass and self-lubricating qualities of the PEEK material, because the slight give of a plastic versus metal plate allows it to survive more abuse and provide better sealing throughout the life of the valve
High-efficiency valves move more gas volume with each piston stroke and provide greater strength, quieter operation, and longer life
Valves are specifically designed for non-lubricated gas applications
Valves seat more positively due to precisely engineered clearances, spring tension, and a special finish
Optional stainless-steel valves also available on all models
Single-Distance Piece
Single-distance piece (isolation chamber) is available and allows for precise leakage control and minimizes product contamination providing double seal control
The single-distance piece controls contamination of the compressed gas from crankcase lubricant
The isolation chamber may be independently purged, pressurized or vented for maximum containment and safety from toxic or hazardous gases
S3R Oil Control Seal
Delivers enhanced oil control and even greater leakage control by keeping oil in the crankcase, making this a true oil-free gas compressor
Available on 600 & 900 Series models of NG Compressors
Additional Features
Special Epoxy Coating
Interior of the crankcase is coated with a specially formulated epoxy coating, providing an added layer of protection
No Yellow Metal
No brass or copper is present in the gas compressor, keeping the compressor safe from the corrosive nature of some gases
One-Piece Piston
Ductile iron pistons are connected to the rod with a single positive locking nut
Stronger and simpler than multi-piece designs
Less parts that can break or need to be repaired
Oil Pump
Self-reversing oil pump provides pressure lubricated crankcase and positive oil distribution to all running gear components, including, the crosshead for long life and minimal wear
A full-flow spin-on filter comes standard

O-ring Seals
All pressure containing parts are sealed with O-rings to ensure positive sealing under all operating conditions, eliminating leakage and maintenance problems
O-rings are available in Buna-N, FKM, Neoprene, PTFE or Ethylene-Propylene
Crosshead Assemblies
The ductile iron crossheads are designed with special machine lube channels for maximum lubrication and wear resistance
Wrist Pin Needle Bearings
Steel wrist pins are designed to last a lifetime
Large roller steel needle bearings provide long life under high rod load applications and will not need to be replaced under normal operating conditions
Superior wrist pin lubrication is assured under all load conditions
Steel needle bearings are free of yellow metals which eliminates the risk of contamination
Piston Rod Seals
Self-adjusting piston rod seals provide maximum sealing and minimum friction
Loaded glass filled PTFE seals maintain constant sealing pressure around the piston rods, preventing crankcase oil contamination and cylinder blow-by
Piston Rings
Special pressure assisted piston ring design features a chamber that ensures pressure behind the ring to provide maximum sealing efficiency with minimal friction wear
Extra thick piston rings are double the size of rings in competitive compressors, and provide more wear surface for greater ring life
Constructed of self-lubricating PTFE for positive sealing
Design results in peak performance and extended compressor service life

Valves are specifically designed for non-lubricated gas applications
Valves seat more positively due to precisely engineered clearances, spring tension, and a special finish
Optional stainless-steel valves and TNT impregnated steel valves also available on some models
Double-Distance Piece
Single- or double-distance pieces (isolation chambers) are available and allow for precise leakage control and minimize product contamination
Distance pieces control contamination of the compressed gas from crankcase lubricant, even at high vacuum inlet conditions
Each isolation chamber may be independently purged, pressurized or vented for maximum containment and safety from toxic or hazardous gases
S3R Oil Control Seal
Delivers enhanced oil control and even greater leakage control by keeping oil in the crankcase
