Discharge pressure of ammonia compressor

[manmohan]

How many psi maximum discharge pressure of reciprocating compressor

[FaultCode]

Make and model number of compressor required before that can be answered.

Check manufacturers data sheet.

Hi

it depends on our condensing temp.
normally every company has own test pressure for that

[RANGER1]

Maximum discharge pressure if system is designed correctly is 10-15% below lowest relief valve setting on high side of plant.
Relief valve should have been selected by looking at maximum design pressure on each pressure vessel or component.
Have a look at reliefs on compressor, high pressure liquid receiver & whatever in on high side.
What ever is lowest setting based on that you high pressure switch should be minimum 10% below that.

[Segei]

Compression ratio should not be greater than 8:1.
