Radial Compressors

Our radial compressors include single-and multi-stage process gas compressors, process air compressors and mechanical vapor compressors. In the integral version, the impeller is directly mounted on the high-speed shaft. Alternative versions are fitted with intermediate bearings. FIMA is the acknowledged world market leader in low-volume radial/turbo compressors. This type of compressor is frequently implemented in chemical processing plants or refineries to return some of the flue gas to the process.

The American Petroleum Industry (API) Standards in particular make high demands of the industry. FIMA builds and delivers machines that comply with these specific requirements. Our tailored portfolio of compressors and blowers complies with API 617, API 614, API 670, API 671, API 672, API 673 and DIN EN standards. We thus help you to improve your plant’s efficiency and profitability.

Hermetically encapsulated fans and compressors

HETICO (Hermetically tight compressor) Here, the impeller and motor are combined in a single casing to eliminate dynamically stressed gaskets between the processing area and surrounding ambiance.

MACOUCO (Magnetic coupling compressor) Compared to conventional machines, the MACOUCO version offers a high level of environmental friendliness thanks to the design principle on which the magnetic coupling is based.
