Gas Boosters, Valves, Fittings, & Tubing for Hydrogen
As the sole distributor of Maximator® products in North America, MAXPRO® Technologies Inc. is an industry-leading provider of high-pressure solutions. We offer a range of components and systems manufactured for use in high-pressure applications and operations.
Gas boosters, valves, fittings, and tubing from MAXPRO are quality products for use in demanding environments, such as those found in hydrogen applications.
Hydrogen is extremely small and highly reactive. As such, it is essential to use the right types of gas boosters, valves, fittings, and tubing in hydrogen systems.
Equipment Considerations for Hydrogen Applications
In hydrogen piping systems, any weak points may enable the pressurized gas to create small cracks or leaks that can lead to an explosion. That’s why it is essential to use properly designed and manufactured gas boosters, valves, fittings, and tubing. Maximator components for hydrogen applications feature coned and threaded connections that are engineered to accommodate high pressures, high temperatures, and other extreme conditions without risk of leaking.
Gas Boosters for Hydrogen Applications
Maximator gas boosters are suitable for the oil-free compression of gases and air. Industrial gases like argon, helium, nitrogen, and hydrogen can be compressed to operating pressures up to 36,000 psi. Air-driven gas boosters do not need electricity to run so they can be used in explosion-proof areas.
Depending upon your needs, lightweight, compact gas boosters are available in the following styles:
- Single acting, single stage
- Double acting, single stage
- Double acting, single stage, double air head
- High-flow double acting, single stage, double air head
- Double acting, two stage
- Double acting, two stage, double air head
Gas Booster Systems for Hydrogen Applications
MAXPRO offers a selection of standard Gas Booster Systems for Hydrogen Applications. If one of our standard Gas Booster Systems does not meet your requirements, our engineering staff will design a custom system to meet your exact requirements.
