Benefits tailored for your process

Like all Atlas Copco equipment, H2P compressors are built to deliver maximum value for our customers. Developed specifically for power-to-gas processes, they integrate the features and qualities you need to optimize your setup, protect output, and build your business.

Maximum safety in hydrogen handling

Safety is crucial when dealing with hydrogen. H2P hydrogen compressors help you to avoid the risks associated with gas leakages, contamination, and other potential risks in your setup. For added reliability and peace of mind, all our packages include safe instrumentation and control loops. To guarantee your installation’s safety, our solutions meet major international and local safety codes. In addition, each compressor is also fully tested with helium at our facilities.

The best possible hydrogen quality

Pure hydrogen is essential as a feedstock and fuel in many industrial processes. From the mobility sector to power generation and storage, from chemical and petrochemical applications to fertilizers and ammonia production, numerous applications rely on the highest hydrogen quality to protect output.

At Atlas Copco, we care about your reputation. We also understand the high costs that can result from downtime and product wastage if a production process is contaminated. H2P compressors are designed to minimize the risks of contamination, create the ultimate ownership experience and, at the same time, protect the environment.

The importance of oil-free

Oil in your process can lead to severe consequences such as spoiled or unsafe products, production downtime, and legal issues. In the hydrogen compression sector, gas integrity is of the utmost importance. H2P compressors integrate a number of technologies to guarantee oil-free production:

Double-distance pieces equipped with oil sealing rings ensure physical separation between the crankcase and the cylinders.

The length of the piston rod is calculated so that no part in contact with oil enters the compression chamber.

Packings with sealing rings ensure tightness between the cylinder and distance piece.

Piston rings and wear bands are made from PTFE.

Energy efficiency to protect your business

Energy efficiency is a driver for any business these days. In the renewable energy sector it is pivotal. Our H2P compressors protect your business by reducing costs and supporting the principles of the energy transition.

Built-in energy savings

The reciprocating technology on which H2P compressors are based is a proven standard for high-pressure applications where low energy consumption is a must. To maximize its benefits, every component of the high-efficiency motor has been optimized.

The piston runs at low speed with long strokes, reducing operating temperatures and friction for more efficient compression and increased reliability. The cylinder is designed for flow and size optimization to reduce energy consumption. The high efficiency coolers reduce the temperature on the valves, rings and packings which results in less wear of the components and increased reliability.

Optimized control

The Control System is designed to deliver the highest energy efficiency in a variable production operation. As well as meeting all safety requirements, it offers efficient regulation systems for different operation types (VSD, Load/unload and Recirculation). The H2P Control System is a premium instrument, suitable for Classified areas.

VSD technology

Our VSD technology is integrated with the latest innovations in terms of monitoring and control. This enables you to match power consumption to demand, creating further energy savings and improving regulation possibilities.

Smooth, reliable production with low maintenance

Designed for 24/7 industrial service, H2P compressors meet your requirements for a smooth and reliable supply of hydrogen at all times, without the need for constant supervision. With high-quality stainless steel components and minimized noise and vibration, they are designed for continuous, dependable, safe operation. Their low maintenance requirements help to keep your costs in check as well as reducing downtime to a minimum.

A name you can trust in a changing world

The industrial world is evolving fast as we transition towards new energy sources in an effort to meet ever more urgent climate targets. With over 140 years of experience, Atlas Copco has built an enviable reputation as a master in compression technology.
