LARGO compressors with gearbox & two-position regulation

Industrial air-cooled, two-position, screw, single-stage compressors with oil injection. Torque transmission is provided by a gearbox, which is more energy-efficient than a belt drive. The gearbox also reduces/eliminates radial loads on the bearings of the electric motor shaft and screw block. Belt maintenance and, if applicable, direct drive and clutch maintenance are eliminated.

Power 7.5-13 bar(g), FAD 81-3139 m3/h, 11-315kW.

Compressor control, maintenance monitoring and archiving of operating data are provided by the AirControl 5.1 or Airlogic2 unit with a color display. These units allow planning of pressure bands depending on conditions, or the set mode and time. This planning can effectively reduce the energy consumption of operation. Data can be stored on a memory card. The compressor operation is very quiet and can therefore be placed close to, or directly at, the workplace.

The compressor is equipped with an intake air filter. This prevents dust particles from entering the pneumatic system.

Add-ons and configurations:

  • Integrated condenser dryer
  • Integrated filtration
  • Cyclone condensate separator with automatic drain
  • Oil/water heat exchanger for the possibility of obtaining a large amount of thermal energy, for example into the heating circuit of an office building, or into an accumulation tank for hot service water, or water for other industrial use.
  • Electric compressor heating for installations where low temperatures are a risk.
  • The compressor can be filled with food grade oil.
  • Automatic phase sequence control

Reduced maintenance requirements:

  • Oil change after 8000 operating hours
  • No need for clutch and belt maintenance
  • Low vibration and elimination of axial shaft loads compared to belt transmission
  • Reduced load on the screw block suction filter thanks to the installed air suction filtration in the compressor housing

Low energy consumption:

  • Low energy losses in the gearbox
  • Air intake into the housing is provided by highly efficient radial fans
  • Highly efficient compression block
