Compressor Crankcase
Find and compare compressor crankcases from leading B2B suppliers with technical specifications. Compressor crankcases house and protect the internal moving parts of reciprocating compressors, such as the crankshaft, connecting rods, and bearings. In hydrogen compression systems, crankcases must be designed for high reliability, effective lubrication, and compatibility with hydrogen’s properties, including its low molecular weight and potential for leakage. A well-sealed crankcase minimizes hydrogen loss and prevents air ingress, which is critical for safety and system efficiency. Hydrogen-compatible crankcases are often made from corrosion-resistant alloys and include advanced sealing technologies. Key selection criteria include pressure containment, oil management system, sealing performance, material compatibility, and compliance with hydrogen safety standards.
