    Mayekawa ( Mycom ) and anyone else who works with petro-chem would be my suggestion .
    Are you talking natural gas or diesel engine ?

    Thanks for the reply. The type of system I had in mind would be a natural gas driven recip. compressor skid mounted that can be added to an existing system.

    You can ask any of the US manufacturers and they should be able to do it. Vilter, Frick, FES, etc. The biggest issue is having a torsional analysis done and making sure the frame is strong enough.
    If all else fails, ask for help.

    Hi Gabriel,

    Tecogen use the J&E Hall HallScrew compressor in their chillers.
    If you want just the compressor speak to Tony Payne or Tony Twine in J&E Hall compressor sales department.

    Regards,

    Amar
