Screw compressors ABAC

ABAC screw compressors — the SPINN Large range on a 500-litre receiver

Six ranges, 30 models

We carry ABAC screw compressors in six ranges — from a two-kilowatt machine on ordinary 230 V up to a twenty-two-kilowatt station for a whole hall. 30 models in all, delivering 272 to 3,090 litres per minute.

The ranges differ in more than output. What decides between them is whether your demand fluctuates, whether you already have a receiver and drying, and what electrical supply the workshop has. This page is here to point you to the right one; the detail sits with each range.

Four questions that decide it

How much air do you need?

Up to 780 l/min the demand is covered by CROSS, SPINN.D, Mini and SPV. Up to 1,680 l/min by Maxi. Above 2,200 l/min only by Large.

Does demand fluctuate through the day?

If it does — an impact wrench one minute, nothing the next — the SPV with its variable speed drive pays off. If the same work runs all day, a fixed-speed machine saves almost as much and costs less to buy.

Do you already have a receiver and drying?

If you do, take a standalone machine — CROSS, Maxi without a receiver or Large without a receiver. If you do not, take a finished set: Mini, SPV, Maxi DX or Large D-500.

What supply do you have?

Everything but one model needs 400 V three-phase. The single exception in the whole line-up is the SPD-2,2/10CW-90 from the SPINN.D range, which runs on 230 V.

Ranges for a workshop and a smaller site

ABAC CROSS

When you are moving up from a piston compressor and want to put the set together yourself. Of all the ranges it offers the most variants of the same machine — on its own, on a 100 or 200 litre receiver, with a dryer or without. The drive is direct, so there are no V-belts to tension.

7 models · 4 a 7.5 kW · 495 a 848 l/min · 59–63 dB(A)

ABAC SPINN.D

When the workshop has no three-phase supply. The SPD-2,2/10CW-90 runs on ordinary 230 V and is the only such machine in the whole ABAC line-up. It also stands on wheels, so it can be moved about. The second model takes 400 V and a 200 litre receiver.

2 models · 2.2 kW · 272 l/min · 59 dB(A)

ABAC SPINN Mini

When you want a finished set and demand is roughly steady. A 200 litre receiver and a refrigerant dryer come with every model, not as an extra. Nothing is assembled from parts and the air reaches the pipework dry from day one.

4 models · 2.2–5.5 kW · 294–780 l/min · 61–66 dB(A)

ABAC SPINN SPV

When consumption changes through the day. It is the only range with a variable speed drive. At low demand the machine slows down instead of idling and burning electricity. These are also the quietest machines we carry — from 57 dB(A).

4 models · 2.2–5.5 kW · 131–757 l/min (regulace) · 57–61 dB(A)

ABAC SPINN.D SPD-2,2/10CW-90 — screw compressor on 230 V, on wheels

The only one that needs no three-phase supply

In the whole ABAC line-up there is exactly one screw compressor running on ordinary 230 V — the SPD-2,2/10CW-90 from the ABAC SPINN.D range. It delivers 272 litres per minute at 10 bar and stands on wheels, so you can move it to wherever the work is.

Every other machine, including the second model of that same range, needs 400 V three-phase. So if you have no such supply, the decision is simple — and if you do, the whole choice opens up.

Ranges for a compressor room and a hall

ABAC SPINN Maxi

When you are planning a compressor room rather than a workshop. Three standalone units with the smallest footprint we carry — 850 × 720 mm — for sites where the receiver already stands. Plus four finished sets on a 270 or 500 litre receiver with a dryer.

7 models · 5.5–15 kW · 696–1,680 l/min · 64–71 dB(A)

ABAC SPINN Large

When compressed air is the backbone medium of the whole site. The largest block we carry — the S67 with vertical three-stage oil separation. Three standalone machines and three complete stations on a 500 litre receiver with a dryer.

6 models · 15–22 kW · 2,215–3,090 l/min · 67–70 dB(A)

How the ranges differ in size

ABAC SPINN.D — the smallest screw compressor we carry, 2.2 kW on wheels

ABAC SPINN Mini — compressor with a 200 l receiver and a refrigerant dryer

ABAC SPINN Large — the largest station we carry, 22 kW on a 500 l receiver

From the left: SPINN.D 2.2 kW on a 90-litre receiver · SPINN Mini 5.5 kW with a 200 l receiver and a dryer · SPINN Large 22 kW on 500 litres. Between the two extremes there is an elevenfold difference in delivery.

Every range works at 10 bar. Delivery to ISO 1217 annex C, noise to ISO 2151:2004.

What all the ranges share

A screw instead of a piston

Two intermeshing rotors compress the air continuously rather than in strokes. That is why the machine can run without stopping and why it is quieter. The manufacturer states 30 % higher energy efficiency and noise roughly 20 dB(A) lower than piston compressors.

Oil that comes back

In the rotor chamber the oil lubricates, cools and seals the clearances. Before the air leaves for the pipework the oil is removed in multi-stage separation and circulates on — it is not consumed as in a piston machine.

The Infologic2 unit

Control, operating signals and tracking of service intervals. On the smaller ranges in steps of 2,000 – 4,000 – 6,000 running hours, on Large up to 8,000.

10 bar pressure

The whole line-up works at ten bar. What separates the ranges is the amount of air, not the pressure.

Five-year warranty as a gift

ABAC offers an extension of the basic two-year warranty to five years for a surcharge of 5 % of the machine price (code ABA-5R). With us that surcharge comes as a gift with the product. Pressure vessels carry ten years against corrosion.

Ventilek says

A screw compressor is not worth it for everyone. If the machine runs a few hours a week, a piston compressor is enough and costs considerably less. A screw pays for itself where it runs daily and for long stretches — and that is exactly where a piston machine runs out of capacity and wears on everyone with its noise. Do the sums before you decide.

Frequently asked questions

When is it worth moving from a piston compressor to a screw?: When the piston machine runs almost continuously and never gets to rest, or when its noise disturbs the neighbourhood. A screw compressor is built for continuous duty: the manufacturer states 30 % higher energy efficiency and roughly 20 dB(A) less noise. At a few hours a week, though, the price difference will not come back and a piston compressor is the sounder choice.
What do the letters and numbers in the model codes mean?: The first three characters give the range — CRS is CROSS, SPD SPINN.D, SPM Mini, SPV SPV, SPN Maxi and SPL Large. The number after the dash is the motor power in kilowatts, the number after the slash the pressure in bar. The letter D marks the version with a refrigerant dryer, and the final number is the receiver volume in litres. So SPL-22/10D-500 is a Large, 22 kW, 10 bar, with a dryer, on a 500 litre receiver.
Do I need a dryer with a screw compressor?: Compressed air always carries water and it condenses in the pipework. Without drying the pipes corrode, air tools suffer and in paint work the water leaves defects. The Mini and SPV ranges include a dryer with every model; on CROSS, Maxi and Large you choose between versions with and without. Why and how to dry compressed air covers it in detail.
How large a receiver for a standalone machine?: A receiver evens out peaks so the compressor does not start on every short draw. It will not cover a permanently higher demand, though — that has to be carried by the machine. Pressure vessels and air receivers shows how to work out the volume; we also carry air receivers on their own.
What is the difference between direct drive and V-belts?: Direct drive couples the motor to the block rigidly — nothing to tension, nothing to replace; the CROSS and SPINN.D ranges use it. V-belts are used on Mini, SPV, Maxi and Large; they are parts that get re-tensioned and eventually replaced, so allow for them in the service plan.
What about the warranty?: The basic warranty is two years. ABAC offers an extension to five years for a surcharge of 5 % of the machine price (code ABA-5R) — with us that surcharge comes as a gift with the product. Pressure vessels carry ten years against corrosion.
