Customer benefits

1️⃣ Long life and durability

✅ Cast iron construction - the main parts of the compressor are made of cast iron, which ensures high wear resistance and long service life even in continuous operation.
✅ Low-speed unit - lower speeds reduce mechanical stress and thermal loads, resulting in less wear on components.
✅ Oil lubrication - ensures optimum compressor operation and minimises friction, thereby extending the life of the unit.

2️⃣ Powerful and efficient operation

✅ Suction power 1500 l/min - enough compressed air for demanding applications.
✅ O utput of approximately 1200 l/min - ideal for use in industry, trades and garages.
✅ O perating pressure 10 bar - sufficient pressure for air tools, painting, sandblasting and other activities.
✅ V-belt drive - efficient power transmission reduces energy consumption and extends motor life.

3️⃣ Upgraded elements for higher reliability

✅ Reinforced piston rings and seals - higher compression efficiency, less air loss.
✅ Improved air filtration - steel filter inserts with protective mesh ensure cleaner intake air and longer filter life.
✅ Optimized cooling - large fan and intercooler reduce operating temperature and improve compressor efficiency.
✅ New bearings on piston pins - easy start-up after downtime, lower risk of seizure.

4️⃣ Low maintenance costs

✅ Reduced oil in compressed air - less oil leakage due to more precise unit processing, reducing operating costs and extending service intervals.
✅ Automatic operation - a pressure switch controls the compressor on and off, making it easy to operate and saving energy.
✅ Easy condition monitoring - clear gauges, condensate drain valve and robust taps for convenient operation.
