A recent presentation by Alliance Pipeline, a regular participant in Western Turbine meetings, revealed that HEPAs also eliminate the significant cost of compressor washing and the risks associated with starting and stopping the engine to do offline cleaning. These benefits also should be included in your evaluation.

Compressor fouling and blade corrosion due to ingress of contaminants in the incoming air (dust, soot, salt, etc) has been an all too common problem for gas turbine operators, requiring frequent compressor washing.

Alliance Pipeline tested hydrophobic (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) HEPA filters on two of its pipeline compressors. In a year of field testing, Alliance found that these filters had the same pressure drop as existing, lower efficiency filters, and that they eliminated the need to shut down compressors for off-line water washing (OLWW).

Durable. Resilient. Reliable. Can your tubing take the pressure? See for yourself how GORE STA-PURE Pump Tubing performs compared to conventional silicone tubing. 

Il est pertinent de choisir une garniture tressée en fonction des caractéristiques du matériau. Au fil des ans, l'industrie a découvert que les garnitures PTFE graphite offraient la meilleure combinaison de toutes ces caractéristiques.

GORE Turbine Filters optimize power output by eliminating performance reducing deposits in your compressor section. Their outstanding E12 filtration efficiency keeps out at least 99.5% of contaminants at the most penetrating particle sizes (~0.1 μm).
