Safety Devices:
Following mechanical safety devices are provided to ensure safe operation of the compressor
Minimum Pressure Valve - Maintains minimum air pressure in air-oil separator tank so that positive oil flow is
ensured.
Safety Relief Valve - De-apressurize compressor system if pressure exceeds beyond limits of the system
Blow Down Valve - Ensures proper pressure relief arrangement during the unload condition of the compressor
Oil Level indicator - This is mounted on air/oil separator tank. It gives visual indication of minimum & maximum
level of oil present in compressor system
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
• Low Noise
• Efficient use of energy
• No oil discharge to environment
Components
Airend
This is the main component of the compressor package called as Airend.
Free atmospheric air is being compressed during the rotation of optimally
designed twin helical screws in the airend. The air end is coupled directly
to the electric motor through a set of gears. Both air-end & motor is
mounted on anti -vibration pads placed on the base frame. With this
arrangement we ensure less vibrations and longer life of the compressor.
High efficiency air-end and reliable arrangement for transmission of
power makes the compressor energy efficient and reliable performance
machine.
Air/Oil Separator
Compressed air and lube oil is separated in a multistage air/oil separator
tank. The separator also acts as an oil reservoir. High efficient air/oil
separator element, limits oil carryover to desired level in the delivered air
from compressor package.
Electric Motor
This is flange mounting, 2/4 Pole, TEFC, IP 55 protection, Class F
insulation motor designed with necessary starting torque and
operational load variations. Make of the motor is as per KPC
standard.
Air Intake
Trouble free operation of this close tolerance, screw type compressor is
achieved by suction air filtration system. It is with Dry, Paper type filter
element in cartridge form for easy replacement. Complete filter
assembly is within canopy of the compressor, which avoids entry of heavy
particles in the compressor.
After Cooler
High-pressure discharge air is cooled in radiator type air-cooled after-
cooler. The condensation happens due to cooling of air & separates out in
the Moisture separator. We provide Auto drain trap to remove water from
the system.
Optional
