Compressors with Increased Capacity, Reduced Noise



BOGE's S-4 series of screw compressors is now also available in the 45 to 75 kW performance range.

It is not only in foundries, the mining sector and the construction industry where dust and dirt can hamper even the best efforts to generate reliable, continuous compressed air. Other industrial sectors find themselves facing challenging conditions. This is where a compressor with a virtually maintenance-free hermetically sealed direct drive comes into its own: wear and tear are minimized, which increases the device's service life. All of the models in BOGE's S-4 series have this "IntegrateDrive" airend, including the new compressors with a performance range of 45 to 75 kW.

Compact, Energy-Saving and Efficient

Compressor manufacturer BOGE has once again expanded the fourth generation of its S series, now covering the entire 45 to 150 kW performance range. "All models are characterized by quiet, reliable operation and have excellent efficiency values. The compressors generate high free air delivery at low specific power consumption. The energy use of the new 75 kW compressor has been reduced by over 12 percent compared with its predecessor, while the free air delivery has increased by almost 9 percent. Generously sized components reduce internal pressure losses, and with a footprint of just 1.20 m x 2.00 m, the housing of the new models is considerably smaller than its older siblings. These new compressors come with the high-performance, low-energy IE4 motors and permanent magnet motors fitted as standard," said a company spokesperson.

Simple Maintenance and Low Sound Pressure Level

"The innovative vertical oil separation concept ensures low residual oil content, minimal pressure losses and a long service life. The internal cartridge is quick and easy to remove and replace. Maintenance takes place from two sides with just a few simple movements - the intake filter is accessible, and both the oil and air coolers can easily be removed and cleaned," said the spokesperson.

"These new models are also special because of their quiet running. We have been able to reduce the noise in the 45 kW performance class by more than an extra 8 dB(A)," said Product Manager Frank Hilbrink. "And thanks to this reduction, we have also ensured greater flexibility, as the compressor can now be used in more sensitive environments."

"Due to the new models in the S-4 series, BOGE is now able to offer companies with reduced compressed air demands reliable, energy-efficient technology, even in situations where temperatures can exceed 40° C. For these critical installation conditions, BOGE has a high-temperature design which offers improved cooling," said the spokesperson.
