HAUG Oxygen Compressors

Oxygen compression demands oil-free compressors that are thoroughly cleaned of oil and grease before operation, due to oxygen’s highly reactive and easily ignitable nature. As a strong oxidizer, oxygen can cause foreign substances, oils, or fats to ignite, making safety paramount in compressor design—a field in which HAUG has specialized since the 1980s.

HAUG oxygen compressors are frequently employed as re-compressors for on-site gas generation systems, including PSA, VPSA, and membrane plants. These systems typically produce oxygen at atmospheric pressure (VPSA) or around 58 psi (PSA), but many applications require higher pressures, achieved through re-compression. From oxygen supply for hospitals and mobile healthcare to oxygenation in remote areas like mining and metalworking, HAUG compressors’ oil-free, dry-running, and gas-tight design makes them the ideal choice for safe and reliable oxygen compression.

HAUG Oxygen compressors offer:

• No gas contamination due to oil-free and dry-running compression
• Safe operation through the use of special, oxygen-compatible materials
• Technically tight gas compressors during operation and at standstill
