Description
discharge manifold of the compressor. From
the discharge manifold, the gas/oil exits the
compressor housing
The Vilter VSG compressors feature the
exclusive Parallex™ Slide System, which
consists of a pair of slides for each gate rotor
assembly. These two independently oper-
ated slides are referred to as the capacity
slide and the volume ratio slide. On the
suction end of the screw, the capacity slide
moves to vary the timing of the beginning
of the compression process. With the
slide moved all the way out to the suction
end of the screw (the 100% position), the
compression process begins immediately
after the gate rotor tooth enters the screw
flute and closes off the end of the groove.
In this situation, the maximum volume of
gas is trapped in the screw flute at the start
of the compression process. As the slide
is pulled back away from the suction end
of the screw, the start of the compression
process is delayed as some of the suction
gas is allowed to spill back out of the screw
flute until the screw rotates far enough to
pass the end of the capacity slide and begin
compressing. This causes a reduced volume
of gas to be trapped in the screw flute when
the compression process begins. In this way,
the capacity of the compressor is reduced
from 100% down to as low as 10% of the full
rated capacity.
The capacity slide provides the means for
controlling specific process set points.
By continuously adjusting the flow of gas
through the compressor, either suction or
discharge pressure in a particular process
can be controlled. When coupled with a
microprocessor controller, the adjustable
capacity slide allows for precise and continu-
ous automatic control of any parameter in
the process to a chosen set point.
The second slide for each gate rotor is the
volume ratio slide. The purpose of the
volume ratio slide is to maximize the ef-
ficiency of the compressor by matching
the gas pressure within the screw flute at
the point of discharge to the downstream
process requirements. The volume ratio slide
operates at the discharge end of the screw,
and acts to vary the position of the discharge
port. When the slide is extended fully to the
discharge end of the screw (the 100% posi-
tion), the compression process within the
screw flute continues until the screw rotates
far enough for the flute to pass the end of the
volume ratio slide. At this point, the screw
flute lines up with the discharge port and the
compressed gas is expelled from the screw
flute. As the volume ratio slide is pulled back
away from the discharge end of the screw,
the position of the discharge port is changed
and the gas is allowed to escape the screw
flute earlier in the compression process, at a
reduced pressure.
The overall volume ratio within the compres-
sor is determined by the distance between
the front of the capacity slide (the start of
compression) and the back of the volume
ratio slide (the completion of compression).
Therefore, the volume ratio slide must
respond to changes in the downstream
pressure measured in the oil separator and
position itself for the required compression
ratio based on the position of the capacity
slide. By only compressing the gas within
the screw as far as required to match the
pressure in the downstream receiver,
the compressor efficiency is maximized.
Proper positioning of the volume ratio slide
prevents either over compressing or under
compressing of the gas within the screw
flute. This allows the single screw compres-
sor to efficiently handle a range of volume
ratios from as low as 1.2 up to 7.0.
