Overall, ELGi's range of screw air compressors combines superior performance, compliance with international standards, and cost savings, making them an excellent choice for various industrial applications.

The working principle of a screw air compressor is based on positive displacement. The compressor uses two meshing helical screws, also known as rotors, to compress air. The screws rotate in opposite directions, with the male rotor driving the female rotor. As the screws rotate, the air is trapped between the rotors and the compressor housing, and the volume of the air is reduced. This compression process increases the pressure of the air, which is then discharged through the outlet port.

There are two types of rotary screw compressors: oil-injected and oil-free. Oil-injected screw compressors use oil to lubricate the rotors and provide a seal between them, which prevents air leakage. Oil-free screw compressors, on the other hand, do not use oil and rely on other sealing methods, such as dry-running or water injection.

Why Should You Choose ELGi's Rotary Screw Air Compressor?

There are many benefits in running a rotary screw air compressor. In the appropriate applications, rotary screw compressors are more reliable and energy efficient that reciprocating compressors. Rotary Screw compressors require simple maintenance, consume less oil, and delivers higher quality air. Noise levels are significantly lower with a rotary screw compressor creating a more comfortable work environment.

Advantages of Rotary Screw Compressor

Rotary screw compressors offer several advantages over other types of air compressors, including:

Energy Efficiency

Screw type compressors are energy efficient because they utilize positive displacement technology. This means that they can compress air more efficiently than other types of compressors, resulting in lower energy consumption and reduced operating costs.

Continuous Operation

Rotary screw compressors can operate continuously without the need for shut-off and have no duty cycle. This means that they can run for extended periods with little to no downtime. These rotary compressors are continuous duty cycle compressors.

Low Maintenance

Rotary air compressors have few moving parts, which reduces wear and tear and minimizes maintenance requirements. Long service intervals reduce maintenance costs and make routine checks and repairs quick and hassle-free.

Powerful Performance

Industrial Screw air compressors need to operate in challenging conditions. The rotary screw compressors used in industrial applications have high airflow rates and can perform at extreme temperatures, making them suitable for running pneumatic tools and heavy equipment.

Low Noise

Screw compressors are relatively quiet because they have small sizes and lack moving parts. This makes them ideal for point-of-use installations and industrial applications.
