Mid-Size Screw Compressors

Mid-Size Screw Compressors

Some people talk of direct drive, but really mean geared drive. Make sure you know the difference. In ASD-CSD packages, the motor drives the air end directly, without transmission loss, at speeds of up to 3000rpm via a maintenance free coupling. This low speed is possible with large sized airends that are highly efficient and matched to the individual performances and pressures required. One-to-one drive reduces the number of components needed in comparison with gear drive, increasing reliability and service life. Compared with compressors using small, high speed gear-driven air ends, one-to-one drive provides efficient power transmission and improved power consumption.

One-to-one drive means that the motor is connected directly to the airend shaft eliminating any transmission losses, a feature that gives KAESER compressors outstanding performance and makes greater energy savings possible.
