Compressor Inlet Guide Vane
Gas Compressors are mechanical devices, found in the chemical processing, refining, and petrochemical industries, that are used to increase the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume. The inlet guide vane function is to precisely control the amount of gas to be compressed into the compressor by adjusting the vane angles. A high level of repeatability and resolution of positioning is absolutely required to maximize compressor efficiency. REXA Electraulic™ Technology offers a rugged, responsive, and repeatable solution for IGV Control. Inlet Guide Vanes automated with REXA Actuators combine positioning resolution to 0.05%, with minimal (40ms) dead time, delivering unmatched system performance, uptime, and reliability, while eliminating the requirement for any oil based maintenance and resultant downtime.
