Fill Cylinders with Oxygen, Nitrogen, Air or Other Gases
The RIX MicroBoost is a very compact oil-free motor-driven booster compressor that can fill gas cylinders to 2,200 psig. With a motor drive, the booster does not rely on air or nitrogen for drive power, which can save over 75% on power costs. The three-stage design makes for low operating temperatures and allows the user to draw supply oxygen cylinders all the way down to 0 psig. Very low speed operation (200 RPM) makes the unit very reliable and long-lived. And at only 40 pounds the compressor can be moved around easily. Although built and cleaned for oxygen service, the booster can be used for other gases as well. The MicroBoost at 20 SCFH fills out the very small end of RIX's oxygen booster compressor line. Available in 110V and 230V configurations for the _ HP drive motor. Fits in a space of only 16"L x 9"W x 14"H.
RIX also manufactures a variety of other oil-free compressors for oxygen, breathing air, and other gases.
