Blackmer created a new LB Reciprocating Gas Compressor brochure to showcase our propane compressor options. The LB Series are specifically designed liquid transfer and vapor recovery of propane, butane, and anhydrous ammonia. The LB Series Gas Compressors offer liquid transfer deliver rates up to 680 gpm (2,575 L/min) and piston displacement capacities from 7 to 125 cfm (11.9 to 212 m3/h) with working pressure up to 350 psi (24.13 bar). 

The LB propane compressors have a range of features not available on competitors equipment:

Special Epoxy Coating
- The entire interior of the crankcase is coated with a specially formulated epoxy coating, providing an added layer of protection

Oversized Main Bearings
- The crankshaft main bearings on these propane compressors are oversized, ensuring long life and durability. These bearings will not need to be replaced during the propane compressor's service life.

One Piece Piston with Single Positive Locking Nut
- The one-piece ductile iron or steel piston and single positive locking nut are both stronger and simpler than multi-piece designs with numerous fasteners found on competitor’s equipment.

High Efficiency Valves
-Designed to move more gas volume, Blackmer high efficiency steel valves are built for toughness and simplicity. Constructed of corrosion resistant stainless steel discs and springs, the valves are easily removed for service without disturbing the piping. With their simple design they are easily repaired and reassembled.
