YORK Process Systems - Process Refrigeration and Gas Compression Systems

York International Corporation is the world's leading manufacturer of air-conditioning and refrigeration equipment used in the petrochemical and gas-processing industries.

We design and manufacture heavy-duty refrigeration plants (with screw or centrifugal compressors for ammonia, halocarbons, hydrocarbons, CO² and mixed gases), low-temperature refrigeration plants (using cascade or compound pre-assembled units) and refrigeration systems for the treatment and storage of natural gas, chlorine liquefaction, and gas condensation.

We also provide complete CO² plants, including all pre-treatment, compression, and refrigeration to produce food-grade CO². Our services ensure continual, successful production, and range from petrochemical distillation and fractionation to plastics and CO² production.

YORK ML OIL-FREE MULTISTAGE CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR

The YORK ML compressor is the latest option from the YORK multistage series. Using magnetic bearings, it provides complete oil-free compression. The compressor is available with cast iron, nodular iron, and cast steel casings for discharge pressures to 40 bar.

Tested extensively using S2M bearing experience and technology, a mag bearing option eliminates all the negatives of purchasing and maintaining a lubrication system.

The compressor has a capacity of 25,000CFM (42,000m³/hr) and 12,000CFM (9,000kW), and has up to eight wheels in a single casing. It can be supplied in a "bolt up" base configuration for direct connection to gas turbines, as complete drivelines, or as part of a total refrigeration system.

The ML compressor line is in close compliance with API-617.

YORK M MULTISTAGE CENTRIFUGAL COMPRESSOR

First developed in 1955, the YORK M multistage centrifugal compressor is now operating in more than 3,500 installations worldwide (including more than 800 in hydrocarbon refrigeration and heat pump applications). Units are operating both onshore and offshore with motor, steam, and gas turbine drivers.

This compressor is available in all sizes and options, as described for the ML line above.

ROTARY SCREW COMPRESSORS

YORK's oil flooded rotary screw compressors are available in cast iron, nodular iron, and cast steel casings for discharge pressures of up to 40 bar. The compressors are available with capacities of up to 6,500CFM (10,800m³/hr) and 3,500hp (2,600kW).

YORK is the world's largest manufacturer of rotary screw compressors for industrial refrigeration. Today, the combined brand names of YORK, Frick, Gram, Sabroe and Stal yield a current capacity of more than 7,000 screw compressors per year.
