Designed For Maximum Efficiency And Reliability Advanced Compres
The advantages of DigiPilot controlDigiPilot compressor control ensures accurate and reliable control. DigiPilot's sophisticated microprocessor facilitates efficient operation and pressure control through its simple user-interface and interactive instrument panel. Warning lights indicate when the air inlet filters, oil separation elements or cooling system require service operations. On the oil filter there is a separate visual indicator. These enable proactive service planning.Full load/off load control with automatic start/stopRemote control optionEasy to adapt into a multi-compressor systemMulti-lingual user interface
Designed For Maximum Efficiency And Reliability Efficient Oil Se
For years Gardner Denver™ has set the standards in oil separation efficiency for clean air. The innovative oil separation system of the ESN 160-250, developed by Gardner Denver™, is based on a multi-stage process of highly efficient cyclone separation followed by oil separator elements. The system offers superior separation efficiency with residual oil content as low as 2 mg/m³ in aerosol.The multi-element system is less prone to premature failuresIn-to-out-flow results in lower air flow velocity for final separationIt offers higher surface area for better separationCompact size single elements are easy to handle and service
Designed For Maximum Efficiency And Reliability Enduro Screw Com
The ESN 160-250 features a new and revolutionary screw element: an ENDURO® air end that improves efficiency, maximizes reliability, saves energy and reduces wear and tear by operating at ideal RPMs with minimum losses. The unit's all-new air end layout with suction and discharge ports on the top side makes the compressor package easy to service with open access interior. The new ENDURO® air end is available as a direct or gear driven version, depending on the pressure and power required. In addition to generally improved performance, an extra 0.5 - 3% benefit in performance is gained by placing the gear in the discharge end of the air end.
Designed For Maximum Efficiency And Reliability Heavy Duty Const
The ESN 160-250 compressors are designed using advanced technology to meet the highest quality standards that customers are accustomed to expect from Gardner Denver. The ESN 160-250 compressor series is an efficient and versatile solution even for the most demanding industrial applications.Each ENDURO® screw compressor element is carefully tested for performance and qualityEach ESN 160-250 compressor is rigorously tested in simulated real life conditionsAll components meet the applicable international standards and requirements
