The Gas Purge Compressors have been designed to replace the conventional nitrogen gas bottle supply to bubble units/gas purge systems for water level measurement. There are four models available: HS-45 HS-55 HS-55DO HS-55DB The use of industrial strength components for guaranteed reliability, a large capacity 13.5 Litre/3.5 gallon receiver tank for superior purging capability and a 5 year maintenance free, two stage air drying system sets the Gas Purge Compressor apart in quality, reliability and performance.
HS-45
HS-55
The design of the unit centres around the tried and proven Hydrological Services Model HS23 Dry Bubble Unit with Differential Regulator (BU02). All compressor models incorporates a maintenance free Air Drying System that utilises a "Auto Purging" Membrane Filter Dryer and Mist Separator to ensure a moisture free system. The effectiveness of the Compressor FilterDryer is such that the unit also removes up to 20% of oxygen from the air it dries, thus helping to reduce aquatic growth at the river end. The unit is maintenance free for up to 8 years.

Orifice, Transducer, Mounting Stand and RTU are optional. Note 2 x pressure transducer are required for this system
VOLTAGE REGULATOR PROTECTION
If the pressure lines or fittings on the compressor develop a leak that cause the loss of air pressure in the system, the air compressor could run continuously as it attempts to fill the air receiver. If this occurs, the system voltage could fall below 12 Volts. At 11V the voltage regulator switches off the power to the motor until the battery is recharged to 12V at which time the system will commence normal operation. This feature protects the compressor pump and motor from damage.

DRYER/MIST SEPARATOR The compressor system features an “auto purge” valve that drain the Mist Separator moisture at the end of each pumping cycle. The Air Dryer then completely dries the air, removing all moisture and up to 20% oxygen to reduce aquatic growth. Mist Separator
Dryer Non-return Valve
Compressor
Mist Separator Auto Purge Valve
The “auto purge” valve for the Mist Separator makes the compressor system maintenance free for up to 5 years. In addition, the use of the rugged, durable, industrial strength compressor provides higher continuous output pressure for purging and receiver tank charging.
