Typical Refrigeration Package
A typical mechanical refrigeration package designed by GPE will be capable of cooling the
contract gas to the specified temperature. The package will include:
- Chiller - TEMA / ASME VIII kettle, shell and tube or plate
and frame heat exchanger, DP vacuum to 250 psig, DT -40 to 150F, instruments, surge volume
- Compression train
- Driver natural gas engine
e.g. CAT 3306TA c/w governor, fuel system, starter; electric motor, 1ph or 3ph induction, LV or MV;
- Compressor - screw, recip
with shaft coupling, vibration sensors;
- Suction - automatic suction control valve if required; ASME VIII suction scrubber with mesh
pad or elements, PSV, instruments, valves, slug capacity, DP vacuum to 250 psig, DT -40F or -20F to 250F;
- Discharge - ASME VIII
oil separator with meshpad and elements, PSV, instruments, valves, DP up to 500 psig, DT -40F or -20F to 350F; or ASME VIII pulsation
bottles or discharge separators with PSV, minimum instrumentation, DP up to class 1500#, DT -40F or -20F to 500F; automatic discharge
PCV if required; automatic hot gas bypass for low process flow running
