The GBD-30 is an air-driven gas booster designed for applications requiring moderate pressure intensification. It can boost inlet gas supply pressures starting from 100 psig (7 bar) to a maximum outlet pressure of 4,500 psig (310 bar). The unit features a single-stage, single-acting design, making it suitable for tasks such as pressure testing small vessels or components. The displacement per stroke is 3.1 cubic inches, which allows for efficient operation in applications with lower volume requirements. The GBD-30 is part of SC Hydraulic's GB series, known for its economical performance in gas boosting applications.
SC Hydraulic Engineering's gas boosters are available in four ratios: 5:1, 15:1, 30:1, and 75:1 in single-acting/single
The gas boosters are used to intensify a variety of gases including argon, helium, nitrogen, and hydrogen. Some common uses with a booster or booster system are to scavenge bottled gases once the pressure has fallen below operational requirements, pressure testing vessels, laser cutting, aircraft ground support equipment and injection molding.
Inlet gas supply pressures can be as low as 50 psig and outlet pressures up to 25,000 psi.
