Plum Gas Solutions Launches Plum Pulse, a High-Pressure Compressor Unit Engineered for Demanding Natural Gas Applications
Plum Gas Solutions is pleased to announce the launch of Plum Pulse, a high-pressure compressor unit designed to deliver reliable performance for operators who need flexibility, efficiency and consistent uptime. Developed for virtual pipeline operations, oil and gas sites and a wide range of industrial applications, Plum Pulse brings together rugged engineering, field-ready design and smart monitoring tools to support modern natural gas operations.
Reliable Compression for Field Operations
Plum Pulse is built to handle high-demand conditions with dual-stage compression capable of reaching discharge pressures up to 3,800 PSIG while supporting suction pressures from 500 to 900 PSIG. This makes it suitable for a variety of deployment scenarios, including virtual pipeline compression, stranded gas capture, dual-fuel drilling and pipeline maintenance.
The unit is fully compliant with ASME B31.3, NFPA 70, CSA B51 and CSA C22.1 standards and engineered to operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -20°F to 350°F, offering dependable performance across diverse field environments.
High-Capacity Output and Efficient Operation
With compression capacity of up to 40,000 m³ per day at 750 PSIG suction, Plum Pulse supports high-volume natural gas movement for CNG virtual pipelines and large-scale industrial needs. Its Caterpillar G3406NA gas-driven engine provides a stable power source without requiring external electricity, supported by a built-in alternator with solar and battery backup.
An integrated air-to-gas heat exchanger with both intercooler and aftercooler coils maintains thermal balance during continuous duty cycles, helping protect system efficiency during extended operation.
Smart Monitoring and Real-Time Visibility
Plum Pulse is equipped with ScadaCore cloud-based monitoring, providing operators with real-time dashboards, alarm notifications and remote data tracking. This visibility enhances uptime, supports informed decision-making and reduces the need for on-site checks.
Mobile, Self-Contained and Field-Ready
The compressor unit is fully trailer-mounted with a footprint of 177 inches wide by 700 inches long, allowing for fast mobilization and easy deployment across job sites. As a self-contained system that requires no external power and uses sweet natural gas as fuel, Plum Pulse helps reduce operating costs and minimizes setup constraints.
Built for Operators Who Need Performance and Flexibility
Plum Pulse is suited for operators in upstream and midstream oil and gas, virtual pipeline networks, utilities, industrial gas distribution, mining, remote operations and power generation projects that require high-pressure, reliable compression.
Its design reflects Plum’s focus on delivering equipment that is durable, efficient and simple to deploy in the field. With high-pressure capability, strong output performance and integrated remote monitoring, Plum Pulse is positioned to support customers who need dependable natural gas compression for critical applications.
