Most gas problems come from shaft seals, oil, gears and corrosion. Stratovac machines are designed to take each of them out of the gas path.
How the magnetic drive seals the gas
Torque crosses a solid wall through magnets, so the motor shaft never enters the gas chamber.
- 1The motor turns the outer magnets, outside the gas.
- 2Their magnetic field crosses the sealed wall, with no hole for a shaft.
- 3The inner magnets turn the shaft and both impellers inside the gas.

Magnetic coupling
No shaft seal means no leak path and no seal to replace.
Oil-free gas path
No oil in the machine, so none reaches your gas, your process or the equipment downstream.
Corrosion resistance
Stainless steel or nickel-coated housings stand up to H2S, sulfuric acid and caustic cleaning products. Cerakote and anodized finishes are available.
Compact high speed
Up to 15,000 RPM in a footprint that fits on a robot, a gripper or a crowded skid.
Staged pressure
Identical units run in series, so you buy the pressure you need instead of an oversized single machine.
Hazardous-area motors
Class I Div. 1/2 and Class II Div. 2 motors let the machine install straight into classified areas.
Stack units to build the pressure
Natural gas booster, 600 psig (41.4 bar) inlet. Each added stage raises the discharge pressure.

The electric booster against the alternatives
| Criterion | Electric booster | Pneumatic 2:1 | Piston, about 3 hp |
|---|---|---|---|
| Uses compressed air | No | Yes | No |
| Energy use | 1× | ≈ 2× | Moderate |
| Oil-free | Yes | Varies | Oil risk |
| Leak-tight | Yes | No | No |
| Maintenance | Minimal | Regular | Frequent |
| Size | Compact | Medium | Bulky |
| Maximum outlet pressure | 400 psig (27.6 bar) | 230 to 300 psi (15.9 to 20.7 bar) | About 360 psi (24.8 bar), typical 3 hp unit |

Where Stratovac machines run
From biogas skids to ventilators and nuclear plants, the common thread is a gas that standard blowers handle badly.
Biogas and renewable natural gas
Blowers and boosters that move wet, flammable, H2S-laden gas through upgrading and conditioning systems, and boost it before pipeline injection.
Natural gas treatment
Gas recirculation and regeneration in dryers and PSA units, oxygen removal systems, and fuel-gas boosting for turbine skids.
Hydrogen and fuel cells
Turbo blowers for cathode air or oxygen supply and boosters for hydrogen recirculation, supplied to fuel cell manufacturers.
Collaborative robotics
Two-stage high-speed boosters small enough to mount on the robot or the gripper instead of a central station.
Medical and respiratory
Boosters cleaned and greased to meet breathable-air ISO limits for very low VOC. Used in a mechanical ventilator program built in Canada during COVID-19.
Dental equipment
Light, high-flow boosters for portable dental vacuum, with a nickel coating against caustic cleaning products.
Nuclear and radioactive gas
Custom boosters that circulate radioactive gas: radiation-resistant greases, depleted uranium shielding and a low-speed design for bearing life. Units delivered several years ago are still in operation.
Aquaculture
Air and oxygen injection for recirculating aquaculture systems and live-holding tanks. Oil-free for the safety of live species, built for 24/7 duty.
Compressed air and nitrogen
Electric boosters raise line pressure at the point of use without drawing compressed air from the network. A nitrogen booster for fiber laser cutting is in development.
From operating point to delivered unit
You talk to the engineers who design the machine, from the first question to the drawing approval.
Understand
We review your gas, pressures, flow, duty cycle and the space available.
Specify
We size the machine and agree with you on materials, motor and connections.
Design
Our engineers design around your skid and share drawings for approval.
Validate
Pressure parts and performance are tested before shipment.
Deliver
Units ship from our production sites in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and Barcelona, Spain.
