Hermetic Booster

Eclipse Hermetic Boosters are used to increase the pressure of any gas or air/gas mixture not corrosive to aluminum or steel. They deliver gas at any volume within the capacity range of the booster with a relatively constant pressure. These boosters are UL listed when handling natural or manufactured gases. [The discharge pressure is the total of the booster added pressure plus incoming gas pressure.] The Hermetic Booster's design is unique because its premium efficiency motor and rotor are enclosed in an airtight steel housing. No shaft seal is required, which eliminates the possibility of shaft seal leakage. Sealed electrical connections are made through an explosion-proof conduit, and an explosion proof junction box is also included. Standard shaft Class 1, Group D explosion -proof motors are standard. Features & Benefits: Eclipse has been producing gas boosters for over 80 years. This experience has led to a design with a proven history of many installations with a long reliable operational life. • The hermetic design eliminates the maintenance and wear problems of a shaft seal. • The flat radial blades of the centrifugal rotor avoid dirt and particle accumulation. • The motor and rotor can be easily removed without disturbing the piping.
