HOW THE BEAM GAS COMPRESSOR™ OPERATES
The BGC utilizes the action of the walking beam of a Conventional, Mark, or Airbalance unit as the
prime mover. This energy is already on your location.
DOUBLE ACTING BEAM GAS COMPRESSOR™
During the polish rod up stroke, gas is pulled from the casing into the bottom chamber of the cylinder
through a suction check valve. Gas is also at this time being compressed from the top chamber
through a discharge check valve and into the flow line. During the polish rod down stroke, gas is pulled
from the casing and into the top chamber through a second suction check valve. Gas is also at this
time being compressed from the bottom chamber through a second discharge check valve and into
the flow line.
