Structure Features:

  • Stainless steel oil-free airend
  • Integrated air/water aftercooler
  • Refrigerated dryer mounted on shared skid
  • Acoustic enclosure
  • Vibration-isolated mounting feet

Working Principle:
Oil-free screw compression at 10 bar with integrated drying. Air compressed by non-lubricated rotors, separated, cooled, then dried in the integrated refrigerated dryer to +3°C dew point. Elektronikon MK5 modulates inlet valve for demand-matched output.

Key Features:

  • 52.5 kW — slightly higher power than standard TC52S
  • Integrated dryer — single-skid oil-free air + drying solution
  • 10 bar rated — suitable for medium-pressure oil-free applications
  • Version 80 — standard networking, touchscreen control

Advantages:

  • Complete oil-free solution with drying on one skid
  • 52.5 kW provides slight capacity margin over 52 kW models
  • Up to 35% energy savings via load modulation
  • Zero oil maintenance — no oil filters, no oil changes

Applicable Industries:

  • Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
  • Food & Beverage Processing
  • Semiconductor Production
  • Hospital & Medical Facilities
  • Electronics Assembly
  • Clean Room Environments

Installation Requirements:

  • Indoor, well-ventilated space
  • Ambient: 0°C to +45°C
  • Electrical: 400V / 3Ph / 50Hz
  • Floor load: ≥1200 kg (dryer adds ~10 kg)
  • Intake filter: Atlas Copco Fx series (mandatory)
  • Clearance: 1.0 m intake, 0.7 m discharge
  • Condensate drain from both compressor and dryer

Usage Precautions:

  • Max working pressure: 10 bar
  • Air filter: replace every 4000 hours
  • Dryer ambient limit: +45°C maximum — performance degrades above this
  • Monitor dew point — integrated dryer targets +3°C
  • Quarterly condensate trap inspection
  • Annual full service including dryer refrigerant check
