The KSP series screw+piston tandem high-pressure compressor represents a skid-mounted combination design, comprising a first stage oil-free screw and a second stage reliable oil-free piston booster. Together, they are meticulously engineered to create a stable and energy-efficient high-pressure compressor unit, capable of delivering 5.0-30.5m3/min at 40 bar of oil-free air continuously, adhering to ISO8573-1 Class 0 air quality standards. Oil-free air The first stage water injection screw fulfils four main functions of lubrication as well as cooling, sealing and noise reduction, thus providing 100% oil free air. No special treatment for the discharge water is required to meet environmental protection requirements. The screw air-end casing, the star wheel bracket and the whole system pipeline are of food grade stainless steel material. These components combine with an oil-free piston booster to assure the whole air system is free of oil. The screw air-end is made from corrosion resistant food-grade stainless steel to ensure durability. The lubrication water absorbs much of the heat from the compressor which itself runs at a low temperature. All components operate at a low temperature range which increases the machine reliability and prolongs the service life of the unit. The permanent magnet frequency inverter drive allows a wide regulation range whilst minimising energy consumption. Few consumables are required, so maintenance costs are low, and parts are easy to replace, says Adekom. The lubricating water is fitted with a fully automatic water changing device and it can be changed without stopping the operation of the unit. The advanced PLC ensures 100% digital control and automation from a single HMI point, with cloud monitoring and predictive maintenance. www.adekom.com.hk PETproducts
