Centrifugal Compressors
Connective IndustriesThere is no job too big or too complex for Hitachi's compressor range -- whether it is the reciprocating type (Bebicon | Piston ), screw type (Oil Flooded | Oil-Free Screw), scroll compressor, centrifugal compressor or booster compressor as well as auxiliary equipment parts. Our compressors come with the same reassuring quality guarantees the world has come to expect from Hitachi. Despite over 100 years of air compressor experience, we still place emphasis on technology innovation and production development to meet the diverse needs of our customers.
Vertically Split Process Centrifugal Compressors (BCH)
Connective IndustriesCentrifugal compressors for process use are the heart of various types of plants that require high reliability. Also, customers throughout the world trust us to provide efficiency compressors that use high-efficiency impellers that we've developed. Vertically split (barrel-shaped BCH) compressors are used for hydrogen and other light gases and applications with a high pressure of about 4-35 MPa, and are capable of high-speed stable operation at rotation speeds of up to about 15,000 revolutions per minute.
Horizontally Split Process Centrifugal Compressors (MCH)
Connective IndustriesCentrifugal compressors for process use are the heart of various types of plants that require high reliability. Also, customers throughout the world trust us to provide the efficiency compressors that use high-efficiency impellers that we've developed. The MCH-type compressor, which is suitable for pressures in the range about 4-5 MPa, has a horizontally split casing and a sturdy casing structure, so it is easy to do maintenance inside the casing.
Centrifugal Compressors for Gas Pipelines (PCH)
Connective IndustriesGas pipeline compressors are used to transport natural gas from the wellhead to a power station or other demand location through a pipeline. Our 3D impeller allows us to achieve both a wide operating range and high efficiency, so it is possible to flexibly respond to seasonal fluctuations in gas flow rates, which contributes to energy conservation.
Overhung Centrifugal Compressors (POB)
Connective IndustriesProcess centrifugal compressors are the heart of various kinds of plants, and they are required to be highly reliable. Also, customers throughout the world trust us to provide efficiency compressors that use high-efficiency impellers that we've developed. Overhung compressors have a structure with a single-stage impeller, and gas is drawn in along the axial direction. We have 2 types of overhung compressors in our line-up.
Compressors for FPSO Application
Connective IndustriesA FPSO is a floating production system that receives fluids (crude oil, water and a host of other things) from a subsea reservoir. The compressor for FPSO requires small footprint, quake resistance and others in addition to high discharge pressure. Hitachi compressors are contented these with new technology. Hitachi cooperates to global FPSO Project, with our products.
