Classical Rotary Gas Separator (RGS)

Reliable Gas Separation Solution for ESP Systems

The Classical Rotary Gas Separator (RGS) is a critical downhole component designed to improve the performance and reliability of Electric Submersible Pump (ESP) systems operating in wells with significant free gas production. Installed between the intake and pump sections, the RGS separates free gas from the produced fluid before it enters the pump stages.

By removing gas from the fluid stream, the Rotary Gas Separator helps prevent gas lock, improve volumetric efficiency, reduce pump vibration, and extend the service life of ESP equipment. Based on conventional REDA 400 and 513 Series designs, the RGS offers full interchangeability at both component and assembly levels, making it an ideal solution for system upgrades, replacements, and new installations.

Designed with corrosion-resistant materials, high-strength shafts, and tungsten carbide bearings, the Classical RGS delivers dependable performance in demanding oilfield environments, including high gas-content wells, corrosive applications, and high-horsepower ESP systems.
