Stansted Fluid Power Ltd is a privately owned British family business founded
in 1970, and is well know for its activities in high pressure liquid and gas
pumping systems, in some cases for pressures as high as 14kbar. Middle range
pressures, generally in the range up to 7kbar are used in industry and research
worldwide.

Whilst originally known for industrial isostatic compaction, cold forming and various laboratory applications; in recent decades the focus has moved into new
fields of food preservation and pharmaceutical production.

Throughout the years SFP has, along with its extensive range of pumping devices,
developed a range of medium pressure gas boosters including a number which have specially been adapted for use with oxygen. These boosters have been built into transportable frames and used by fire and rescue units in the UK.
More recently larger and more complex automatically controlled transportable
equipment specified by the RAF for use as life support systems for high altitude
parachuting.

Large and small base units have evolved from these applications which have become attractive to the diving community.
