Purpose

Protect compressors, dehydration units, metering and gas consumers from liquid carryover and contamination.

Arrangement and integration

Equipment functional diagram

The diagram identifies the principal process duties, equipment connections and product handover points. Final scope, redundancy and battery limits are established from project data.
