Industrial compressors come in many shapes and sizes. Atlas Copco compressors lead the pack. Our GA range of oil-injected rotary screw compressors offers fixed-speed, dual-speed and variable speed drive versions. This article provides a quick overview of these 3 types and which one will work best for you.
With the GA FLX, Atlas Copco has introduced an entirely new rotary screw compressor type: the dual-speed compressor. It operates at two speeds, which makes it up to 20% more efficient than a traditional fixed-speed compressor. That is because it experiences much lower transient and unload losses. And thanks to its next-generation engineering, it also offers optimal air delivery at every pressure set point. In this article we will take a closer look at its key components.
As a dual-speed compressor, a GA FLX will give you up to 20% energy savings and performance improvements compared to traditional fixed-speed models. That being said, a Variable Speed Drive (VSD) air compressor is always the optimal solution, matching its motor speed to your air demand. The good news: you can turn your GA FLX into a VSD machine and save up to 50%. Here’s how it works.
The GA FLX from Atlas Copco is the world’s first dual-speed compressor. Positioned between fixed-speed compressors and those with variable speed drives (VSD), the GA FLX gives compressed air users a third option. Read here how the GA FLX will make a difference to your operation.
