The plus factor in modern oxygen plants for steelmaking
One good reason w h y so much U . S . oxygen capacity for steelmaking is handled by Clark compressors, is the ability of Clark engineers to develop complete compressor systems. A typical steel mill oxygen plant installation is pictured above. In addition to being equipped with four p r o v e n Clark c e n t r i f u g a l o x y g e n compressors and a non-lube reciprocating unit handling nitrogen, this plant uses the n e w Clark IsoTemp centrifugal air compressors Two of these machines are shown handling "100 lb. air" in the first stage of air separation.

Working
Twenty-five IsoTemp compressors have been purchased for installation throughout the world after a careful analysis of features by informed U. S. a n d E u r o p e a n e n g i n e e r s . Among the factors which influenced their choice: Four-stage, isothermal type design; the use of integral basemounted intercoolers between each compression stage for maximum efficiency; low installation cost as a result of compact design; isolated bearing chambers combined with a unique seal porting system to eliminate lube oil contamination of the compressed air stream.
