The Spencer Turbine Company introduced the first hermetically
sealed multistage natural gas boosters in 1975. The company
continues to lead the industry with a range of designs using
Spencer's standard overhung blowers and multiple, spark-resistant
aluminum alloy impellers mounted directly on heavy-duty extended
motor shafts.

Notes: Ratings based on inlet gas at standard pressure of 14.7
PSIA, temperature 70°F, 0.6 specific gravity natural gas and 1.0
specific gravity air for UL Listing. Allowable maximum inlet to UL
standards is 15.2 PSIA or 13” WC and nominal 70°F.
Gas Boosters include standard shaft, 115/230V, 1Ph or 208/230/460V,
3Ph, 60Hz, 3500 RPM, class 1, group D, UL Listed, explosion-proof
motor with thermal overload protection and junction box.

Spencer’s Low Capacity Series UL Listed Natural Gas Booster is a
single-stage design. Installations can boost pressure levels by 9
inches WC, with volumes to 12,000 ICFH. Spencer’s simple direct
drive and generous internal clearances provide for long-term
reliability and quiet operation — well within OSHA limits. The
unique leaktight hermetic design also provides a continuous flow
of natural gas around the explosion-proof motor, cooling the
motor and extending its life.
In addition, Spencer offers the GasCube™ series, an easy-to-install
natural gas booster skid package. It is pre-engineered, prepiped
and has a compact footprint. The GasCube package is also available
in organized modules for on-site assembly. Spencer’s complete
line of hermetic, single and multistage, low and high-pressure
gas boosters — including the GasCube skid package — undergo
standard commercial tests at the factory for leaks as well as for
power input, volume and pressure.
For information on Spencer’s High Capacity Series UL Listed Natural
Gas Boosters, refer to Bulletin TDS-512 and for information on
the GasCube Series, refer to Bulletin No. 515.
