Fuel Nozzle Assembly - "Candlestick"

The versatile Frame 3 (MS3002) is an important component in many pipeline and process applications requiring from 5,000 to 16,000 horsepower.

HGTP provides a wide range of replacement parts for the entire installed fleet.

In the 1950s, General Electric designed, constructed and installed hundreds of 2-shaft gasturbines

The units had two,mechanically-independent turbine stages.The high-pressure (HP)turbine powered the turbine’s own 15-stage, axial-flow compressor.

The low-pressure (LP)turbine drove another manufacturer’s load compressor (Cooper -Bessemer, Nouvo Pignone,Dresser).

These turbines were used primarily in the gas pipeline and petro-chemical industries andremain in popular use today throughout the world.

Large gas pipeline companies (ex: El Paso GasCompany) and chemical companies (ex: Dow Chemical) purchased these turbines to drivevariable-speed load compressors
