THE ADVANTAGES OF CENTRIFUGAL
COMPRESSOR TECHNOLOGY
Integral gear centrifugal compressors represent the latest
technology offering significant advantages over outdated,
less efficient and more costly compressor designs. These
advantages are inherent in the centrifugal design and
enhanced even further by Cameron's more than 50 years
of centrifugal expertise.
