How the Beam Gas Compressor® Operates
The BGC™ utilizes the action of the walking beam of a Conventional, Mark, or Airbalance unit as the primer mover. This energy is already on your location.
Double Acting Beam Gas Compressor®
During the polish rod up stroke, gas is pulled from the casing into the bottom chamber of the cylinder through a suction check valve. Gas is also at this time being compressed from the top chamber through a discharge check valve and into the flow line. During the polish rod down stroke, gas is pulled from the casing and into the top chamber through a second suction check valve. Gas is also at this time being compressed from the bottom chamber through a second discharge check valve and into the flow line.
