In the state-of-the-art research and development centre,
KAESER engineers have created a next-generation oil-

 Efficiency optimised for your application

Qualification for hygienically sensitive processes

KAESER’s oil-free compression rotary screw compressors
are optimised for the demanding requirements of com-
pressed air supply for cleanroom production – this starts
with careful selection of the materials used and ends with
precision in the production process.

Specifically, this means that KAESER considers the air

flow path of the rotary screw compressors when selecting
materials. Therefore, great care is taken to ensure that all
components are suitable for use in sensitive production
processes.

Residual oil class 0 to ISO 8573-1

In order to meet your specific requirements, KAESER

includes every one of your production processes in the
design procedure, from development through to commis-
sioning.

The risk of potential product contamination by the rotary

screw compressor is evaluated and minimised by means
of an HACCP analysis.

Our diligence is confirmed by the TÜV in the form of a

residual oil class 0 certificate in accordance with ISO
8573-1.

4
Absolute transparency is of the utmost importance to
KAESER. Therefore, all functionally relevant components
in the compressor airend are 100% traceable. This way,
nothing escapes our attention – not even the smallest
error.

We support your validation

Both KAESER’s oil-free compression rotary screw com-
pressors and the air treatment components are networked
via the tamper-proof KAESER SIGMA NETWORK.

With the help of the SIGMA AIR MANAGER 4.0 master

controller, process data can be collected, evaluated, and
made available as a report.

Your process validation has never been so easy!

equipped with R-513A refrigerant, which has a very low
GWP value. They are future-proof for the entire life cycle of
the system.
