Atlas Copco to deliver Octopus Hydrogen 3-stage boosters
Atlas Copco has joined forces with Octopus Hydrogen to supply high-pressure hydraulic boosters delivering high pressure fuel cell grade green hydrogen.
As a market leader in air and gas compression systems, Atlas Copco’s contribution to the project is the installation of a plug-and-play, 3-stage oil free hydraulic booster to increase stored hydrogen gas pressure to 450bar. Configured to operate in exposed environments, the packaged unit is complete with its closed loop cooling system, controller and housed inside a weatherproof container.
The oil free booster is hydraulically driven based on a simple hydrostatic transmission principle. Units can be used as compressor/boosters to fill and then intake gas from a high-pressure storage in order to achieve high flow rate in direct fill.
