Booster Compressors

NCA Offers The Most Versatile Range of Booster Air Compressors

National Compressed Air (NCA) is a world leader in designing and manufacturing of high-quality and energy efficient booster compressors for various applications. A versatile range with diverse cutting edge technologies offer a suitable booster compressor solution to the specific needs of every client.

NCA’s patent-pending oil lubricated rotary screw-type booster compressors, for medium-pressure application (up to 600 PSIG) offer numerous advantages over traditional reciprocating boosters in terms of efficiency, reliability, flexibility in operation, low vibrations, compact size, lower discharge temperatures and lower maintenance costs.

For higher pressures of up to 5,000 PSIG, our energy efficient and rugged reciprocating booster compressor designs with high quality packaging are second to none.

We also offer heli-portable booster compressors used in remote areas operations where access is limited, special booster compressors for underground mining to increase the existing service air pressure for drilling applications, and custom designed booster compressors for any special application requested by our customers.
