Oxygen or High Purity Cleaning: Haskel boosters are noted for their cleanliness and can handle pure gases
such as oxygen without risk of any contamination. (Special cleaning required – advise factory.) Haskel’s oxygen cleaned
products are certified per Mil Spec 1330. Refer to the Knowledge Library Link on the Haskel website, www.haskel.com, for
the Oxygen Usage - Best Practice Guide.
Multi-Staging Capability: For higher flow rates and pressures, beyond the capability of a single gas booster, one or
more boosters of the same ratio may be plumbed in parallel and then in series with one or more boosters of the same ratio.
High Flow Rates at High Pressures: When high flow rates at high pressures are needed, the booster can
charge a receiver to an even higher pressure level, thus storing a volume of gas available for rapid release at a constant
pressure through a pressure reducing valve.
Cost Savings: Most industrial gases are commonly delivered at pressures of 2,000 – 2,600 psi in steel cylinders. If the
gas is to be used well below the supply pressure, the pressurized supply is easily piped and controlled to the point of use
with simple valving. However, if the end use requires the gas to be used at higher pressures than the supply it will have
to be boosted. Gas Boosters can utilize all the gas from a supply source such as cylinders, and boost the gas to whatever
pressures (and flows) are required by the application; thus utilizing all the gas volume from the supply source.
If the application requires a pressure greater than common supply cylinder pressures, a booster can often be justified not only
because of utilization of the gas, but also because it will eliminate the need to purchase the gas in special higher pressure more
costly supply cylinders such as 3,600 or 6,000 psi.

Charging Systems
Charging systems provide a fast, efficient and economical method of charging, or “topping up” gas pressures. Charging units ensure
that the optimum use is made of commercially bottled gases down to as low as 150 psi or vaporized liquid (cryogenic) supplies while
producing pressures as high as 39,000 psi depending on gas type. Units are standard or custom-built in a variety of configurations,
samples of which are illustrated here.

Hydraulic Driven Gas Boosters
For flow rates that typically go beyond the capability of pnematic driven boosters.
Haskel’s gas booster product line began with hydraulic driven gas boosters. Their gas compression technology has been proven
in critical applications such as Fuel Cell / Hydrogen, Photovoltaic, Semiconductor, Specialty Gases, and more.
Capable of boosting a variety of gases, Haskel’s broad range of Hydraulic Driven Gas Boosters offer complete flexibility for your
gas compression and transfer needs. The key design elements incorporated in this range are based on the Haskel technology
that has been combined with cutting edge hydraulic drive control to provide a complete solution, from plug-in electrical supply to
reliable gas output pressure and flow.
