AMI's Pressure Skid Stations — Custom-Built. Factory-Tested. Field-Ready.
Because we think a skid should arrive at your site ready to connect and run — not a puzzle to assemble — every unit we construct begins with your process needs and finishes as a fully integrated, performance-verified system.
Our bespoke skid systems are made for industrial gas distribution, medical gas supply, LNG/LPG facilities, petrochemical plants, and specialty gas filling stations anywhere accurate, secure, and continuous gas delivery is essential.
Key Components of AMI Pressure Skid Stations
Every AMI pressure skid is built from rigorously selected, high-integrity components. Here's what's inside:
Active and Monitor Regulators
AMI skids are set up with active and monitor regulators operating in tandem; the monitor regulator is prepared to take over in the event that the active regulator malfunctions or drifts, while the active regulator manages regular pressure reduction. This redundant design complies with international safety regulations and guarantees a continuous gas supply.
Slam Shut Valve
An essential safety feature built into each AMI pressure skid station is a slam shut valve. It protects your system, equipment, and staff against pressure excursions by serving as an automatic, fast-acting shut-off that closes instantaneously when the downstream pressure exceeds safe limits. Our slam shut valves meet international gas safety regulations and are precisely calibrated.
Pressure Relief & Safety Valves
A last line of defence against overpressure situations is provided by spring-loaded or pilot-operated safety relief valves, which guarantee that your system never surpasses its maximum permitted working pressure.
Instrumentation & Controls
Operators have total visibility and control over the gas distribution process thanks to each skid's calibrated pressure gauges, transmitters, flow meters (if required), and control panels.
Structural Steel Skid Frame
All parts are installed on a sturdy, corrosion-resistant structural steel base structure that makes it simple to handle forklifts or cranes, install anchor bolts, and provide long-term indoor or outdoor service.
Our Range of Pressure Skid Systems — Built for Every Application
AMI creates and provides a broad range of PRS skids and high pressure skid systems in various capacities and gas types:
- Gas Flow Skids: For measurement, regulation, and distribution of nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, argon, and specialty gases in industrial and laboratory settings.
- PRS Skids (Pressure Reducing Station Skids): Configured with active and monitor regulators and slam shut valves for mains gas pressure regulation in industrial plants, hospitals, and commercial facilities.
- High Pressure Skid Systems: Engineered for applications requiring delivery pressures above standard — including cylinder filling, pressure testing, and petrochemical processes.
- Skid Mounted Filling Stations: AMI's skid mounted filling stations provide a fully self-contained, ready-to-operate solution for filling gas cylinders — integrating compression, regulation, and safety in one compact unit.
- Custom Skid Systems: Bespoke engineered solutions for unique process requirements — including dual-train redundant configurations, heated skids for cold climates, and multi-stage pressure reduction.
- Pump Skid Systems: Integrating cryogenic reciprocating pumps with pressure regulation and vaporisation for liquid gas transfer and pressurisation applications.
Why Choose AMI for Your Pressure Skid Station?
"Because the difference between a skid that works and a skid that performs is in the details — and details are what AMI does best."
- Custom Designed and Factory Tested: Before being sent, each AMI skid is put through rigorous factory acceptance testing (FAT) and tailored to your particular process parameters.
- Ready to Operate High Pressure Pump Skids: Our skids save installation time and on-site risk because they come pre-piped, pre-wired, and completely tested.
- Active and Monitor Regulator Configuration: The redundancy required by international gas safety regulations (EN 12186, EN 12279, NFPA 55) is standard on all AMI PRS skids.
- Slam Shut Valve Integration: Slam shut valves that are calibrated and factory-set are a regular feature, not an add-on.
- Material Excellence: Components made of brass, carbon steel, and stainless steel chosen based on suitability for your particular gas service, working environment, and pressure rating.
- Complete Documentation: Each skid comes with P&IDs, material certificates, test reports, O&M manuals, and compliance paperwork.
- End-to-End Support: From first inquiry to design approval, manufacturing, FAT, site installation, commissioning, and beyond — AMI's staff is with you throughout.
Industries & Applications — Where AMI Pressure Skid Stations Perform
- Industrial Gas Distribution: Regulation of bulk gas supply from storage tanks to production lines — nitrogen, oxygen, argon, CO₂, and specialty gases.
- Medical Gas Facilities: HTM/NFPA-compliant pressure regulation for hospital piped medical gas systems — oxygen, nitrous oxide, medical air, vacuum.
- Oil, Gas & Petrochemical: High-integrity pressure regulation and shut-off for process gas applications in hazardous area classifications.
- Cylinder & Bundle Filling Stations: AMI's skid mounted filling stations integrate seamlessly with cylinder manifolds and high-pressure compressors for gas filling operations.
- LNG / LPG Facilities: Pressure reduction and flow control for liquefied natural gas and propane supply chains.
- Research & Laboratories: Precise, stable gas delivery for analytical, testing, and research environments.
- Pressure Cleaning Equipment: High-pressure regulated gas supply systems supporting pressure cleaning equipment and industrial cleaning processes.
How to Get Your AMI Pressure Skid Station — Simple. Fast. Expert-Led.
- Share Your Requirements: Describe the type of gas you use, the installation environment, the flow rate, the required output pressure, the inlet pressure, and any applicable requirements.
- Engineering Review: Our engineers create a technical proposal that includes a schematic, component specifications, and a dimensional layout for your consideration and approval.
- Manufacture & FAT: Your custom-designed, factory-tested skid is constructed and thoroughly tested at our facilities after approval; you are welcome to witness the FAT.
- Delivery & Commissioning: Our field staff can assist with commissioning and operator training, and we deliver your ready-to-use high pressure pump skid or PRS skid with full documentation.
Most standard AMI pressure skid stations are delivered within 8–12 weeks from order confirmation. Complex custom skid systems may require additional lead time — contact us early for project-critical timelines.
The AMI Advantage: Custom Designed • Factory Tested • Ready to Operate • Fully Supported
Common Questions About Pressure Skid Stations
What is a pressure reduction unit?
An entire assembly that lowers gas pressure from a high-pressure source to a downstream pressure that is safe and useable. On a single structural frame, it contains pipes, safety valves, regulators, and instrumentation.
What is a pump skid system?
When gas needs to be actively pressurised or moved rather than just regulated, a pump skid system combines pumping or compression equipment with regulators and safety devices inside a skid-mounted assembly.
What is slip pressure?
The pressure differential across a regulator when flowing is known as slip pressure. In active and monitor regulator designs, it is a crucial technical parameter required to appropriately size regulators and provide steady downstream pressure supply.
What is skid pressure?
The operational pressure — either inlet or outlet — at which the skid system is intended to operate. Every pressure skid station is designed by AMI using the skid pressure values you provide, together with the necessary safety margins.
What is a pressure reduction skid?
A pressure reduction skid (PRS skid) is a pre-assembled, skid-mounted pressure reducing station. It is a turnkey device that reduces gas pressure from source to distribution levels and comes with instrumentation and safety protection.
