Air supply

CompAir is launching a new, fuel-efficient range comprising three high-pressure portable compressors. These high-pressure TurboScrew compressors are said to be fuel-efficient and deliver up to 26% energy savings. Called the C230TS-17, C210TS-21 and C200TS-24, the new units are the latest addition to CompAir's proven TurboScrew C series. Weighing in at less than 3.5tonnes, the units can be towed by any commercial vehicle with sufficient capacity and can produce pressures of up to 24bar. Using CompAir's paten

Weighing in at less than 3.5tonnes, the units can be towed by any commercial vehicle with sufficient capacity and can produce pressures of up to 24bar. Using CompAir's patented bi-turbo technology, the TurboScrew compressors are powered by a lightweight and compact Cummins diesel. The screw compressor features a novel engine exhaust gas turbine to pre-compress inlet air before it enters the compression chamber to boost efficiency.
