ELGi Launches AB Series Oil-Free Air Compressor

10/16/2023

ELGi North America (ELGi) launched the "Always Better" AB Series oil-free screw air compressor earlier this year. The AB Series represents breakthrough technology improvements in terms of quality of compressed air, consistent performance over the product life cycle, lower operating temperature, reliability of compressor and operating cost, translating to a lower cost of ownership in industries such as packaging, pharmaceuticals and food and beverage processing.

Equipped with pioneering technology, the AB Series meets industry needs by offering enhanced reliability and reduced ownership cost.

 
Compressed air is essential in industries like packaging, food processing, and pharmaceuticals as it powers pneumatic systems and enables sealing and packaging processes. Moreover, air quality is critical when selecting a compressor for packaging operations. While many facilities use oil-lubricated compressors with a risk of oil contamination, the ELGi’s AB Series compressors consistently deliver 100% oil-free air, in compliance with the stringent norms of ISO 8573 -1 Class 0 and ISO 8573—7, eliminating contamination risks in packaging applications.

The AB Series oil-free compressor can also be equipped with an optional variable-speed drive, allowing for significant energy savings as it smoothly adjusts to fluctuating air demand. AB Series compressor’s compact footprint, lower operating noise, proprietary coating of the rotor and airend housing, and simplified design approach make it unique within oil-free compressed air offerings.
The AB Series is backed with an industry-leading 5-year air end warranty and a 5-year warranty on the compressor package including the motor and cooler.
