Technical review of the TF platform

Dry screw compression path

The optimized 3:4 screw rotor profile moves gas from suction to discharge as the working volume changes, creating a continuous compression path designed around the TF Series’ intended operating conditions.

Sealing and process conditions

Gas composition, vapor, inlet temperature, corrosion risk, wet carryover, and solids can all affect seal and material choices, as well as the protection needed around the pump. We review these conditions against the process stream.

Cooling and inlet protection

We review cooling and inlet protection against the process conditions. If vapor, condensate, droplets, dust, or debris may enter, the package may need separation, filtration, drainage, or other protection before we confirm the configuration.

Configuration review

How we review a TF inquiry

These checks are part of every TF inquiry. Gas composition, vapor or liquid carryover, dust, and site conditions can all affect pump selection and operation, even when they are easy to overlook at first.

01Operating point and installation

We confirm the working pressure and required volumetric flow rate, then check the piping, utilities, controls, and installation limits. For a replacement or retrofit, the existing pump gives us useful context.

02Process gas and liquid carryover

We review the process gas in every inquiry, including any vapor, condensate, or liquid carryover. These can affect the need for separation, filtration, and drainage, as well as the pump's seals, materials, and protection.

03Dust and solid particles

We check the inlet stream for dust and solids, then determine whether inlet protection is needed to keep them out of the pumping chamber.

04Temperature, duty cycle, and site conditions

We confirm inlet temperature, operating pattern, and site requirements as part of the review. To get started, send the working pressure and required volumetric flow rate; we can go through the remaining details together.
