Wärtsilä Screw Compressor SC-500 LPG is a cargo compressor (screw). It is normally installed or arranged in the gas-carrier cargo machinery or deck area. Its purpose is to compress, reliquefy, heat, vaporize or monitor liquefied-gas cargo. The equipment is based on cargo-compatible process equipment, containment, sensors and safety interfaces. The exact model designation distinguishes the installed configuration from neighboring variants in the same category; refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
