GA 5-37 VSDs EN
Oil Injected Screw Compressors
Features
The Atlas Copco GA 5-37 VSDˢ series consists of highly advanced, oil-injected rotary screw compressors designed for maximum energy efficiency, sustainability, and productivity. Featuring IE5 ferrite-assisted motors and smart temperature control, these compressors reduce energy use by up to 60 percent while providing reliable, high-quality compressed air.
Key features of the GA 5-37 VSDˢ air compressor include:
Energy Efficiency & Motor Technology
- IE5 Motor: Equipped with a Ferrite-Assisted Synchronous Reluctance (FASR) motor that meets ultra-premium IE5 efficiency standards without relying on rare earth materials.
- Neos Next Inverter: An in-house developed inverter that efficiently controls motor speed, cooling fans, and valves while combining the functions of an entire electrical cubicle into a single compact unit.
- Up to 60% Energy Savings: Dramatically lowers energy consumption compared to traditional fixed-speed compressors by matching the motor speed to the actual air demand.
- Heat Recovery System: Recovers up to 80 percent of the heat produced by the compressor, allowing it to be reused for other facility processes.
Smart Operational Features
- Boost Flow Mode: Allows the compressor to temporarily exceed its maximum rated capacity without triggering a production shutdown or negative operational consequences.
- Smart Temperature Control (STC): Continuously optimizes the oil temperature and injection, totally eliminating the risk of condensation and maximizing overall compression efficiency.
- Intelligent Drains: Automatically remove condensate to minimize compressed air loss while tracking drain cycles and anticipating maintenance needs.
Advanced Connectivity & Control
- Elektronikon Touch: A user-friendly, multilingual touchscreen display that allows you to monitor and optimize compressor performance.
- SMARTLINK: Provides real-time remote status monitoring, performance data, service timelines, and maintenance alerts.
- OPC UA Integration: Allows seamless and secure integration into your production network for true system performance tracking.
- Multiple Compressor Control: Features the EQ2i control system as standard, enabling management of up to 6 compressors simultaneously without requiring an external central controller.
Design & Environment
- Low Noise Levels: Sound levels as low as 62 dB(A) allow the compressor to be installed directly on the production floor rather than in a separate room.
- Compact Footprint: Features a small, vertical build that ensures easy and flexible installation, even in space-constrained facilities.
Benefits
The Atlas Copco GA 5-37 VSDˢ compressor cuts energy consumption by up to 60% and increases Free Air Delivery (FAD) by 21% compared to fixed-speed models. It features an IE5 super-premium motor, smart connectivity, and operates at noise levels as low as 63 dB.
Key benefits include:
- Massive Energy Savings: Automatically matches motor speed to air demand, eliminating wasted idling and blow-off losses.
- IE5 Efficiency: The Ferrite-Assisted Synchronous Reluctance (FASR) motor exceeds IE5 standards, heavily slashing operational costs.
- Quiet & Compact Design: Sound levels as low as 63 dB and a small footprint allow for direct placement on your production floor.
- Boost Flow Mode: Allows you to temporarily stretch the compressor’s maximum capacity without risking a pressure drop or shutdown.
- Smart Monitoring: Features the Elektronikon Touch controller and SMARTLINK for real-time remote performance tracking.
