6-2 Motor
An oil free scroll airend is the most important part in the compressor. In any case, the oil is not
entered into the compression chamber. As the inside of the compression chamber is delicate, entering
the dusts or foreign substances results in a serious damage to the compressor. The airend consists of
precision parts, and needs a special jig for a repair and maintenance. It shall only be disassembled by
our qualified engineer or a comparable person.
Some models of the scroll air compressor are equipped with
several motors for an automatic operation based on the amount
of air used. The motor is a 3-phase induction motor that has
a service factor higher than a general motor, and is designed to
generate a high efficiency suitable for an air compressor.
The motor plays an important role for the operation of the air
compressor, and needs maintenance on a regular basis.
