CORKEN LPG COMPRESSOR


The CORKEN liquid transfer-vapor recovery compressor is a vertical single-stage, single-acting reciprocating compressor used to offload LPG from an LPG Bridger/Bobtail.

The Compressor recovers the gas vapor in the truck's tank, ensuring that there is no loss of the product for the business owner.

In Contrast, an LPG Pump only pumps the liquid gas from the truck and leaves the gas vapor, resulting in some loss for the LPG business owner.
