Atlas Copco’s AQ water-injected screw compressors, available in
water-cooled and air-cooled versions, meet your precise needs for
pure, oil-free air while offering high-pressure capability and
improved energy efficiency. Developed especially for applications
demanding the highest levels of purity, such as pharmaceutical
production, food processing and critical electronics, AQ
compressors eliminate the risks of oil contamination as well as the
resulting extra costs. They ensure consistent 100% oil-free air
while you benefit from lower operating and maintenance costs with
an ISO 8573-1 CLASS 0 (2010) certified compressor.
Customer benefits
- High efficiency – Thanks to the superior cooling capability of water which ensures
that the heat is removed efficiently at the source, more air per kW
of power is generated. Energy savings of up to 35% are possible
with the Variable Speed Drive versions:
- Load/no load transition losses are eliminated.
- Precise pressure control allows a tighter pressure band and a
lower average working pressure, resulting in reduced energy
consumption. - Certified 100% oil-free air – AQ compressors provide 100% pure, clean air, complying with ISO
8573-1 CLASS 0 (2010) certification. CLASS 0 means zero risk of
contamination; zero risk of damaged or unsafe products; zero risk
of losses from operational downtime; and zero risk of damaging your
company’s hard-won professional reputation. In 2006, Atlas Copco
was the first manufacturer in the world to receive such
certification for an oil-free compressor.
- Quiet operation – AQ compressors are supplied in a sound-insulated canopy, thus
avoiding the need for a separate compressor room and allowing
installation in most working environments.
- Advanced control and monitoring – To maximize efficiency and reliability, the Elektronikon®
controls the main drive motor and regulates system pressure within
a predefined and narrow pressure band. The Elektronikon® controller
can be adapted to your specific needs with extra sensors, digital
contacts, fieldbus, Internet and SMS communication functions. In
combination with the ES multiple compressor controller, the
operation of your complete compressor room is optimized.
