OIL-FREE SF6 GAS RECOVERY COMPRESSOR

Oil-Free SF6 Gas Recovery Compressor for Circuit Breaker Maintenance

  • Overview

Recover, Recompress, and Reuse SF6 Gas Safely and Efficiently

The PUFCO Oil-Free SF6 Gas Recovery Compressor is specifically designed for the recovery, recompression, and transfer of sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) gas during the maintenance, servicing, and refurbishment of high-voltage electrical equipment. It is widely used in SF6 circuit breakers, GIS substations, gas-insulated switchgear, and electrical utility maintenance operations.

With a completely oil-free compression design, the compressor ensures contamination-free gas recovery, helping operators maintain gas purity while reducing operating costs and environmental impact.
