GEC 160 is a reciprocating compressor driven by an electric motor of 160kW and was designed as a replacement of compressor type
XOB, whose origin was Ingersoll Rand compressor for compressing natural gas for transport or re-injection.
GEC 160 can be used for the entire range of pressures ussually found in the 'upstream' sector in Romania.
For normal applications, an orientative value of flow for a two-stage compressor 160 GEC is 40,000 ÷ 50,000 SCMD.
