Senator LSV22 Rotary Screw Variable Speed Air Compressor – 22 kW 8/10 bar 44-127CFM / 1245-3596LPM – Base Mounted

Description

Senator LSV22 Rotary Screw Variable Speed Air Compressor – 22 kW 8/10 bar 44-127CFM / 1245-3596LPM – Base Mounted comprises a range of electric rotary screw air compressors that are efficient, well equipped, base-mounted units supplied ready for use. They incorporate state-of-the-art variable speed drive (VSD) technology that saves energy by continuously adjusting compressor output to match the air demand. Developed using innovative European design concepts to realize an easy-to-use and maintain layout that includes upgraded heavy-duty components to satisfy the demands of Australia’s harsh operating conditions. Ideally suited for medium-to-large industrial applications with fluctuating compressed air demand, the fully-featured Senator LSV18 Rotary Screw Variable Speed Air Compressor establishes a new affordability benchmark for high efficiency VSD screw compressors without sacrificing performance, quality or reliability.

Energy Saving

• Energy consumption comprises about 75% of the total annual cost associated with an electric screw compressor in most industrial applications. A conventional fixed-speed 75 kW unit, for example, uses around $30,000 worth of electricity per year on average working just one 38-hour shift per week.
• Senator LSV Series compressors typically use 15 to 30% less electricity than comparable fixed speed models. In the above example for a 75 kW unit, this would yield an energy cost saving of up to nearly $10,000 per year.
• A Senator LSV Series compressor is the smart choice whether you’re buying for a new installation or a replacement upgrade. It will pay for itself many times over in electricity cost savings.

Features and Benefits

• Vertically stacked air end and airoil receiver layout yields a compact compressor solution with minimum installation cost and space requirements.
• Soundproofed cabinet with anti-vibration mounting of rotating components enables the unit to be installed directly within the working environment.
• 7, 8 & 10 bar (102, 116 & 145 psi) outlet pressure capability that is suitable for a broad range of compressed air applications.
• Precision technology rotary screw air-end with advanced rotor profile and slow rotor speed ensures 24/7 reliability, high airflow output and low energy consumption.
• Microprocessor-based variable speed drive (VSD) with field-oriented vector control provides optimized motor speed and torque performance under all operating conditions.
• High efficiency, VSD-duty electric motor with independent fan-forced cooling has superior temperature rise capability allowing it to operate at constant torque output across the entire speed range.
• VSD dynamic motor control operates smoothly to prevent electrical current spikes and mechanical shock loading during compressor start-up.
• Multi-function electronic controller with LED display serves as a user-friendly interface for compressor operation, system monitoring and protection, and maintenance scheduling.
• Two-stage intake air filtration prolongs the life of the air end, air-oil separator, and the air and oil filters.
• Oversized air-oil receiver tank designed for optimal air / oil separation and increased lubricating oil capacity.
• Fan-forced after-cooling minimizes water carry-over in the discharge air and increases the efficiency of downstream air treatment equipment such as dryers and filters.
• Thermostat-controlled, fan-forced oil cooling permits continuous operation in ambient temperatures of up to 45°C without shortening oil life or increasing oil vapour carry-over.
• Lift-off cabinet panels and ample internal machinery space provide unhindered access for maintenance personnel.
• Spin-on oil filter and air-oil separator elements enable quick and easy compressor servicing with the least possible downtime.
• Compliant with Australian Workplace Health and Safety Regulations for industrial workplace use.
