Featured Projects

This project was the installation of an oil-free compressed air system for research and training laboratories at a major university. 

Equipment included two Atlas Copco SF22+ (30 HP) oil-free rotary scroll air compressor packages. 

The anti-corrosive, lightweight, and versatile Atlas Copco AIRnet aluminum compressed air piping system was used to connect to the existing compressed air lines.

The SF and SF+ ranges of oil-free scroll air compressors unite Atlas Copco’s vast experience and knowledge in a class-leading package. Whereas the SF range includes a standard pneumatic controller, the SF+ range
boasts the high-end Elektronikon® controller. Reliable and compact, they both answer your demands through innovative technologies and supreme energy efficiency without compromising on quality.

The multi-scroll SF+ 8-22 (10 – 30 HP) units bring in the benefits and flexibility of a modular system utilizing two to four compressor modules integrated into one canopy. The Elektronikon® controller continuously monitors the status of each element and starts and stops the compression elements, thereby ensuring that the compressed air output matches the air demand. 

Some advantages of the Atlas Copco SF Oil-Free air compressor series:

PURE OIL-FREE AIR
With no metal-to-metal contact between the compression scrolls, there is no need for oil lubrication in the compression chamber. Therefore, the scroll compression principle guarantees high-quality oil-free air. 

ELIMINATING ANY RISK
As an industry leader committed to meeting the needs of the most demanding customers, Atlas Copco requested the renowned TÜV institute to type-test its range of oil-free compressors. The TÜV found no traces of oil at all in the output air stream. Thus Atlas Copco is the first compressor manufacturer to receive Class 0 certification, according to ISO 8573-1 Class 0 Ed. 3 2010 specifications.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY
The SF scroll compressors, standard equipped with IE3 premium efficiency motors, are suited for sensitive applications which require flexibility and energy efficiency. Unloaded power consumption is eliminated thanks to the simple start/stop control. Advanced scroll technology guarantees an optimal free air delivery and low duty cycle applications.

EXTREMELY LOW NOISE LEVEL
The slow speed of the scroll compression elements ensures that the SF scroll compressors are extremely quiet. Sound levels are as low as 53 dB(a), making the SF the perfect choice for your sensitive working environment.

SIMPLICITY AND RELIABILITY
The SF scroll compressors stand for simplicity and reliability. The compressor has a minimal number of moving parts, ensuring a long operating life with limited service interventions. With their integrated design, Atlas Copco’s SF scroll compressors have a minimal footprint and offer easy serviceability.
