Reciprocating Gas Compressors That Stand Apart

Upgrade to a Blackmer Reciprocating Compressor Today!

See the Difference & Hear from Our Customers

Blackmer Reciprocating Gas Compressors are different. So different that they stand apart from the competition. It comes from the way our gas compressors are built, from the material components used to even the size and thickness of our spare parts. Because of all this and more, a Blackmer reciprocating compressor provides you with a lower total cost of ownership thanks to a longer gas compressor life, less maintenance and less downtime even in the most severe service conditions.

Filling the niche of reciprocating piston compressors that are powered up to 100 hp, Blackmer gas compressors have flow rates up to 3,000 MSCFD and feature flow pressures up to 1,500 psi.

So what makes a Blackmer HD Reciprocating Gas Compressor stand apart from the competition?

  • A special epoxy coating that protects the entire interior of the crankcase
  • High-efficiency valves that move more gas
  • Heavy-duty one-piece pistons that are more durable than multi-piece pistons common in the industry
  • Crankshaft main bearings and needle bearings designed to last a lifetime
  • Piston rings that are twice as thick and longer lasting than competitor models
  • All models are free of yellow metals, keeping the compressor safe from corrosive gases
  • Oil-free design for chemical, petroleum, industrial and liquefied gas applications
  • S3R oil control seal that prevents oil migration

Now hear from our customers about what they had to say about Blackmer Reciprocating Gas Compressors:

“When it comes to the Blackmer compressors we know we are getting a quality product, support, reliability and performance.”
– Joe Schnichels, Account Manager, Propane Equipment, CHS

“We choose a Blackmer compressor because of the reliability and consistency of flow we get with the units. The reliability of the Blackmer compressor has proven itself time and time again in the field, you don’t have any breakdowns or downtime.”
– Mike Hennen, General Manager, Westmor Industries

“The reason we went with Blackmer is because we needed extreme reliability on all of our products, and we needed to have speed. We can do up to 15 (rail) cars in six to eight hours. I don’t think there is anyone else I know of that can get anywhere close to those kind of numbers.”
