There has been a radical shift in air compressor technology over the last few years. A lot of the drawbacks of the previous generation of air compressors have been completely eliminated simply by switching to Gardner Denver’s Quantima™ air compressors.
The problems with traditional air compressors are – they are expensive to run, need continual maintenance to ensure you don’t end up with a very costly repair bill and aren’t particularly efficient compared to what they could be.
Gardner Denver is confident that by using their new Quantima™ Air Compressors you can easily slash 25% of the total cost of ownership compared to other air compressors on the market. Quantima™ air compressors use Variable rate technology to match output to requirement minimizing off-load running and have the lowest off-load power, just 2.5% of full load power. (That’s 7kW for a 300kW compressor).
The Quantima™ range has only a single moving part contained in a magnetic field – so it has no wear and tear. There is no gearbox and no contact parts which cause the bulk of the maintenance issues with a conventional compressor.
Simplification means less maintenance and greater reliability. Compare a screw air compressor to a Quantima™ – see how much less can go wrong.
