  • Advanced Cooling Module: Features separate oil and compressed air aftercoolers along with axial cooling fans to keep operating temperatures low and prevent thermal shutdowns. 
  • Integrated Water Separator: Comes standard with a mechanical separator and electronic drain to safely eliminate condensate from the air stream before it enters the plant network. 
  • Elektronikon Control System: Offers a user-friendly controller with an intuitive navigation interface to continuously monitor real-time operating parameters and safety margins. 
  • Simplified Serviceability: Provides easy, layout-optimized access to all internal service parts and long-lifetime consumables to cut down maintenance costs. 
Key Features of the G 160 VSD (Variable Speed Drive)
 
The G 160 VSD delivers 160 kW of motor power and introduces electronic speed management to match varying production requirements. 
 
  • Variable Speed Drive Technology: Automatically adjusts the motor speed to match fluctuating air demand in real time, reducing compressed air energy costs by up to 35 percent.
  • Flexible Pressure Selection: Allows electronic gear regulation to dynamically select working pressures between 4 bar and 10 bar, eliminating unnecessary over-pressurization.
  • Custom Converter and Motor Design: Integrates a specialized frequency inverter and a motor with protected bearings engineered to deliver high efficiency across the entire speed spectrum.
  • No Speed Windows: Eliminates operational speed gaps to maintain a stable network pressure band and ensure predictable energy savings.
  • EMC Certified Performance: Completely tested and certified for electromagnetic compatibility, ensuring the compressor operation does not interfere with external electrical equipment.
  • Low Vibration Engineering: Uses an advanced structural chassis and dampening components to keep mechanical vibrations significantly below critical levels at all operational speeds.
  • Pulsation-Free Delivery: Directly couples the electric drive train to the rotary screw mechanism to supply smooth, continuous compressed air without pressure spikes.
