Product detailed description

Fifty-five kilowatts at eight bar — the most common combination in this class. Eight bar is the industrial standard and leaves headroom in the pipework for the pressure drop before the air reaches the last point of use at the far end of the hall.

Why 8 bar

Eight bar means 11,500 l/min, a thousand less than the seven-bar setting. That is roughly eight percent of the air for one bar — plus seven percent of the consumption. Choose eight bar only when the pipework genuinely needs it.

The dimensions of 1,900 × 1,350 × 1,650 mm, weight of 1,550 kg, DN 50 outlet and noise level of 76 dB(A) are identical across all three settings — it is one and the same machine.

How it differs from its neighbours

The next size up is the SCR-63/8EPM2 with 13,000 l/min in the same frame. The real step comes with the SCR-75/8EPM2, where the frame changes, the weight goes up by 360 kg and the outlet moves from DN 50 to DN 65.

What is inside

Permanent magnet motor

Permanent magnets, IP65 protection and no bearings to grease. On 55 kW the difference against an IE2 motor is five to six percent of consumption — and the machine runs constantly.

Direct drive through a taper coupling

A taper coupling joins motor and airend — no belt to slip and eat into 11,500 l/min. One maintenance item that simply is not there.

Frequency inverter

The band from 3,000 to 11,500 l/min is covered without shutting down — the machine comes down to 26 % of output. The soft start puts no more load on the supply than normal running.

New-generation airend

The new airend raises efficiency by up to 16 %. On 55 kW in continuous operation that is the single largest saving after the inverter. Engineered for 20 years.

SCR9000 controller

It shares a cascade of up to sixteen machines out on its own. On a machine needing 15,600 m³/h of ventilation the installation is usually several units — and the control system is not rebuilt when it grows.

What the machine needs in the compressor room

A weight of 1,550 kg and a footprint of 1,900 × 1,350 mm means the machine has to get into the compressor room and the floor has to carry it. At 11,500 l/min that is 690 m³ an hour — and it is that figure, not the motor power, that sizes the dryer and filtration.

Equipment

  • permanent magnet motor above IE4 level, oil-cooled in a closed circuit, IP65 protection, no bearings
  • direct drive through a taper coupling — no belts, gearbox or coupling
  • vector-controlled frequency inverter, regulation across 25 to 100 % of speed
  • the cooling fan is inverter-driven as well
  • new screw airend with a rotor profile developed in Japan, service life over 100,000 hours
  • SCR9000 controller with touchscreen, weekly schedule and cascade of up to 16 machines
  • intake nanofilter with 99.9 % retention, 0.1 µm oil filter
  • oversized separator holding residual oil below 3 ppm
  • all-steel internal pipework instead of rubber hoses
  • soft start — the current never exceeds the rated value

At this size a single machine is rarely the answer — a pair of smaller ones is often cheaper to run and production does not stop for service. The table in the SCR-EPM2 range shows how that works out. We will run the numbers on your own demand profile across the country.

Eight bar is the standard so that tool makers do not have to design for every installation separately.

Your installation, though, is just one and it can be measured. If it comes out at seven bar, you save seven percent of consumption over the whole life of the machine.

Čínsko - Japonské Joint Venture pro výrobu efektivních šroubových kompresorů

Shanghai Screw Compressor Co., Ltd(SCR) is a manufacturing company founded in 2000, focusing on innovation, research, development, production, sales and service in the field of industrial compressors. The SCR production plant is a modern facility with more than 250 employees on an area of over 80,000m2. More than 10% of the staff is in the engineering division with a focus on research and development.

SCR's product portfolio consists of energy-efficient screw compressors, including oil-free and two-stage solutions. SCR manufactures in accordance with ISO 9001 standards, holds CE certification for the European market, UL for the US market, Class Zero certification for oil-free machines and the performance of all machines manufactured is audited by SGS.

After more than 20 years of development, SCR has entered into strategic collaborations with many partners and its products are exported to more than 80 countries worldwide.

In 2018, SCR entered into a strategic cooperation in the form of a joint venture with Japanese manufacturer Anest Iwata, which has implemented its quality and technology control system at SCR, helping to develop and bring new, energy-efficient solutions and even more reliable compressors to the market.
