Die Poppe + Potthoff Maschinenbau GmbH liefert Verdichtereinheiten und Druckregelsysteme bis 400 bar für verschiedene Gase. Wir bieten Ihnen anschlussfertige Aggregate zur Steigerung des vorhandenen Drucks für pneumatische und hydraulische Anwendungen. Dadurch lässt sich die Leistungsfähigkeit von bereits bestehenden Anlagen flexibel und effizient erweitern. Unsere Verdichtereinheiten kommen überall dort zum Einsatz wo der bestehende Systemdruck nicht ausreicht um bestimmte Anwendungen zu realisieren. Eine PPM-Druckluftnachverdichter-Einheit kann beispielsweise über handelsübliche Schlauchkupplungen an jeder beliebigen Stelle in das vorhandene Druckluftnetz eingebunden oder bei Montagearbeiten direkt an einen mobilen Kompressor angeschlossen werden und dient somit einer punktuellen Druckerhöhung.
Compressed Air Booster
Our compressed air booster units are used wherever the existing compressed air supply is no longer sufficient due to an increased pressure requirement for special tools, units or systems. A PPM compressed air booster unit can, for example, be integrated into the existing compressed air network at any desired point via commercially available hose couplings, or can be connected directly to a mobile compressor during assembly work, and thus serves as a point of increased pressure. The pressure booster operates pneumatically, i.e. it operates autonomously and is driven exclusively by compressed air. The pressure compressor shown in the illustration compresses the input pressure at a ratio of 1: 2. Consequently, it is possible, for example, to increase a classic compressed air network from 6 bar point for point to approximately 12 bar. In addition, of course, further conversion ratios and container sizes are also available, depending on the pressure required and the delivery rate.
Performance Data
Compressor Unit up to 400 bar
The PPM compressors operate per the pressure conversion principle. The existing operating air is used to compress nitrogen. This principle makes full use of the existing N2 form. The mobile station compresses nitrogen from cylinders to up to 400 bar, regardless of the cylinder pressure.
Compressor type PPM/V/400/120
In this case, a power of approx. 120 Nl/min can be ensured. If the inlet pressure drops below 20 bar, the cylinder must be replaced. Moreover, the production is not affected by cylinder change, since the storage volume of 5 l maintains the necessary supply. The compressor can be operated without problems with a pre-pressure of max. 300 bar.
In the case of a nitrogen supply via a liquid gas tank or a generator, an initial pressure of at least 20-25.

Compressor type PPM/V/400/400
With this PPM compressor, an output of approx. 400 Nl/min can be ensured. This is the classic application case of an N2 post-compression.
Performance Data
Nitrogen Charging Unit
The PPM nitrogen charger (PPM NCU / HA / 35/400) is intended for filling large storage facilities (bubble, diaphragm and piston storage). It consists of a hydraulic drive unit, a compressor, an electrical control system. and the necessary hoses. The components are installed in a compact, transportable housing. The device operates automatically until the preset pre-filling pressure is reached.
The PPM nitrogen charger allows an optimized utilization of the commercially-available nitrogen cylinders as well as a filling of the accumulators up to a pressure of 400 bar.
Performance Data
Tie Station for Air & Nitrogen
The PPM tie stations allow better utilization of nitrogen cylinders as well as a filling of the accumulators up to a pressure of 300 bar.
The stations are attached to standard nitrogen cylinders and are available in various designs.
The PPM NCU/N/35/300 is an autonomous unit, equipped with a powerful gas compressor, pressure switch and pressure reducer. It is built on transportable housing and is ideally suited for mobile use due to its low weight. Nitrogen from the cylinder itself is used as the drive medium. This means that the system is operated completely autonomously and nitrogen is both the drive and medium delivery.
A further variant is the PPM NCU/D/35/300. This station uses compressed air as the drive medium. Also, it is equipped with a powerful gas compressor and built on a transportable housing.

PRESSURE TEST BENCHES AND APPLICATIONS
PRECISE, REPEATABLE AND RELIABLE
As a specialist in pressure testing technology and state-of-the-art test rigs, Poppe + Potthoff Maschinenbau supports the development and production of particularly resilient components made of various materials – especially for automotive, shipbuilding and mechanical engineering as well as fluid and the medical industry. We offer individually designed test benches such as burst pressure test rigs, pressure cycle test benches, leak test systems, functional test rigs and autofrettage systems.
Pressure cycle test stand with vacuum test
Pressure cycle test cooling systems of ECUs, PTC heaters, high-voltage coolant heaters, ACDC and DCDC converters and other media-carrying components while controlling the ambient and media temperature of e.g. water-glycol at temperatures from -40 °C to 140 °C .
Function test bench: Battery simulation under the influence of temperature
A temperature-controlled volume flow (e.g. 50 l/min) can be generated with the Poppe + Potthoff test stands for functional testing of media-carrying components. In addition, a component from e-mobility can be energized if required and pressure cycles applied.
Leak Test Stands
With the leak test rigs from Poppe + Potthoff, various components and assemblies can be tested for leaks by means of a drop in pressure. Depending on the test requirements, our systems including a vacuum unit and low-pressure or high-pressure module can be designed for optimal leak testing. In addition, Poppe + Potthoff offers e.g. bubble tests in a water bath / underwater tests with air and gas.
Burst Test Stands up tp 200 bar
In order to prove the quality of media-carrying components, hose lines, pipes, pressure vessels and other components are pressurized until they burst.
Autofrettage up to 12 0000 bar
A flexible and expandable system for performing autofrettage on various components such as common rails and pump heads up to 12,000 bar.
Compressed Air Boosters
Poppe + Potthoff Maschinenbau GmbH supplies compressor units and pressure control systems up to 400 bar. We offer you ready-to-connect units to increase the existing pressure for pneumatic and hydraulic applications. This allows the performance of existing systems to be expanded flexibly and efficiently.
Test bench for H2 components

Aerospace
Test systems by Poppe + Potthoff Maschinenbau put fluid systems and components for aviation applications to a hard test. During a longterm design and service life test, they undergo up to millions of pressure load changes in order to simulate the service life of a component.
Home Appliances
Household appliance manufacturers are aware of the importance that their media-carrying components must be leakproof from day one, and components must be able to withstand a higher pressure load than the operating pressure. Poppe + Potthoff Maschinenbau supports the industry with various pressure testing systems.
Medizintechnik
Test benches for medical technology components from Poppe + Potthoff Maschinenbau put a wide variety of components to the test. Reliable, repeatable and accurate pressure tests and verification processes ensure the quality of a component during research and development, and production.
Shipbuilding
Marine engines are made up of components that are exposed to extremly high pressures and require pressure testing. Among many others, cooling systems, pumps and valves in ship engines are subjected to pressure and tested for their resilience using pressure test benches from Poppe + Potthoff.
Oil and Gas
Various components from the oil and gas industry can be tested on Poppe + Potthoff pressure test benches. Drill pipes, pipes and (gas) valves are components that are exposed to changing pressure and temperature conditions and require pressure testing to ensure quality and safety.
