DESCRIPTION
The compressors type XAHS 37 DD - XAHS 70 DD7,
XAS 47 DD - XAS 90 DD7 and XAS 57 DD - XAS 110 DD7 are
silenced, single-stage, oil-injected screw compressors, built for a
nominal effective working pressure, ranging from 7 bar up to 12 bar
(see chapter
8
, technical specifications).
The compressor is available with metal or PE canopy (HardHat).
–
Engine
The compressor is driven by an oil-cooled diesel engine.
The engine’s power is transmitted to the compressor through a
heavy-duty drive belt.
–
Compressor element
The compressor casing houses two screw-type rotors, mounted on
ball and roller bearings. The male rotor, driven by the engine, drives
the female rotor. The element delivers pulsation-free air.
Injected oil is used for sealing, cooling and lubricating purposes.
–
Compressor oil system
The oil is boosted by air pressure. The system has no oil pump.
The oil is removed from the air, in the air/oil vessel at first by
centrifugal force, secondly through the oil separator element.
The vessel is provided with an oil level indicator.
