Overview


ZW-0.8/16–24 Liquefied Gas Compressor | United Compressor

The ZW-0.8/16–24 liquefied gas compressor is an industrial-grade oil-free LPG reciprocating compressor designed for handling liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and other low-boiling, volatile hydrocarbons.

This model is manufactured by China Bengbu United Compressor, a China-based industrial compressor manufacturer specializing in gas compression systems, including LPG compressors, natural gas compressors, CNG compressors, and special gas reciprocating compressors.

The unit is widely used in LPG unloading, liquid transfer, cylinder filling (bottling), and residual gas recovery applications, where stable operation and gas safety are critical.

Designed with a Z-type reciprocating structure, the compressor offers stable performance, low vibration, and reliable continuous-duty operation, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments.

Features


High Efficiency & Reliable Operation

The ZW-0.8/16–24 liquefied gas compressor is designed for stable and efficient operation. The control system allows a reasonable level of automation, reducing manual intervention during normal operation. Its structure is optimized to ensure reliable performance under continuous working conditions.


Low Maintenance & Easy Operation

The compressor operates with relatively low vibration and noise, improving on-site working conditions. Key components are designed for durability, and the overall structure is straightforward, making inspection and routine maintenance easier. This helps reduce downtime and overall maintenance workload.


Flexible Configuration Options

The compressor can be configured according to project requirements. Available options include:

  • Structure types: D-type, M-type, V-type, W-type, etc.

  • Cooling methods: water-cooled or air-cooled

  • Installation forms: skid-mounted or fixed installation

  • Drive modes: electric motor or diesel engine

This flexibility allows the unit to be adapted to different site conditions and operating requirements.

Whole Machine Description


Optimized Version (Z-type, Advantage-focused)

The compressor adopts a Z-type reciprocating design with water cooling and oil-free operation. It is supplied in a modular configuration, allowing for convenient transportation and installation.

The overall structure is designed for stable and reliable operation, with integrated layout of main and auxiliary systems to ensure smooth performance under continuous working conditions.

A double-distance piece design effectively isolates the crankcase from the compression chamber, preventing oil carryover and ensuring clean, contamination-free gas compression, making it suitable for applications with higher gas purity requirements.

The compressor is designed with low vibration and noise levels, while reducing wear parts and simplifying the structure, which helps achieve easy operation, reduced maintenance workload, and longer service intervals.
