Designed for the highest standards of quality and reliability, PRESUS C supplies carbon dioxide at a high mass flow and constant pressure in a virtually bubble-free state to a variety of industrial processes. Redundant pumps and pneumatic operation make these boosters extremely reliable. During service or maintenance windows, the CO2 is supplied from the backup unit to ensure process continuity. Operators can switch between the main and backup units automatically by means of a PLC. The PRESUS C configuration offers cost efficiency gains over ring pipe solutions and dual tank (low and high pressure) setups. Different family members support different pressure ratings, scaling up to a working pressure of 130 bar and a mass flow of up to 500 kg/hr. A special high-pressure PRESUS C unit supporting a working pressure of up to 400 bar is also available for specific applications such as gas injection molding with PLASTINUM® GIM C.
Highlights of PRESUS C
- Reliable and continuous supply of CO2 at high pressure
- Avoidance of bubbles that can otherwise occur in the CO2 and compromise production and cause increased downtimes and scrap rates
- Lower energy consumption due to pneumatic (pressure-triggered) drive concept and idle mode, making PRESUS C ideal for intermittent operations
- More convenience and flexibility as mass flow adapts automatically to changes in counter-pressure
