Cargo Compressor · Compressors
Employing a reciprocating design, this large compressor is engineered for handling high volumes of gaseous cargo. The Burckhardt BD-5000 boasts a capacity of 5000 m3/h, making it suitable for demanding applications involving LNG, LPG, and other gas cargos. Its robust construction ensures reliable performance in the challenging marine environment. Common potential issues with the BD-5000 include valve failure, piston ring wear, rod packing leaks, and bearing failures. Burckhardt provides spare parts directly, with a lead time of 3-8 weeks. For optimal maintenance, it's recommended to keep seals and valve inserts on board the vessel. Service intervals for the BD-5000 align with those established by Burckhardt for other large LNG carrier compressors.
