1. Kobelco Compressor

The two-stage rotary screw compressor provides completely oil-free air because no oil is allowed in the compression chambers. Both compression stages employ a new-patented Super Rotor design, which is acknowledged to be the most efficient, two-stage, oil-free rotary screw air compressor on the market.

Kobelco is known globally as one of the top manufacturers of process gas and standard air compressors. Producing rotary screw, centrifugal, and reciprocating compressors, Kobelco leads engineering and innovation of compressor technology.

This new asymmetric rotor profile provides the lowest power consumption per cubic foot of compressed air. The efficiency is further enhanced by a unique load/unload control system that is simple and trouble free. The compressor air-end is a heavy-duty, two-stage design with each stage driven by a common gear.

These components are arranged in a single modular design to form a compact unit which is mounted on vibration isolators to a structural steel base. No special foundation considerations are required.

Simple and Efficient with High Reliability Precision machined timing gears are mounted on each rotor shaft to maintain accurate clearances between the rotors. The bearings are anti-friction type for long life and smooth operation. The electric motor is directly coupled to the input drive shaft through a flexible coupling. Axial thrust is reduced by incorporating an air pressure operated thrust balance piston on each stage.

This arrangement minimizes thrust loading thus increasing bearing life. The state-of-the-art programmable microprocessor controller maximizes operating efficiency and versatility.? Kobelco?s sound attenuated enclosure assures quiet operation.

Doors are hinged and pinned allowing easy removal for inspection and maintenance. 2000 ford expedition pcm problems. Design Features High Efficiency Rotors The new patented Super Rotor profile is the most efficient in the industry. The machined forged steel rotor sets have the most precise tolerances in the industry. FDA approved rotor coating further increases volumetric efficiency.

In addition, the new profile provides 20% more displacement per revolution thus lowering rotor speeds and increasing bearing life. Dual Vent Seals with Stainless Steel Rings Each shaft seal consists of floating stainless steel rings and an oil labyrinth inserted between the rotor chamber and the bearings.

Each seal is buffered by gas from the compression chamber which is purged to atmosphere ensuring that no lubricating oil or its vapor can enter the compression chamber. Lubrication of Gears and Bearings Lubrication prior to start-up, during operation and after shutdown is supplied by an independent motor driving gear pump.

Compressor operation is not allowed until oil pressure is established. During the coast down period the oil pump continues to provide full lubrication until the compressor stops. This design increases gear and bearing life and is not standard on competitive units. Capacity Control Valve The efficient and simple capacity control system is a load/unload type with a direct operating disc valve and no discharge air recalculation. During unloading the bleed-off air is released to atmosphere through a muffler.

This eliminates the need for a bleed-off cooler and the associated problem of condensed moisture entering the inlet of the compressor. The control is an electro-pneumatic device.

No oil, hydraulic cylinders, or rolling diaphragms are used in the operation of this valve. Load and Unload Control This control provides energy efficient operation while eliminating adjustments and minimizing maintenance. When the compressor unloads the brake horsepower drops to approximately 18% of full load, significantly reducing overall energy cost. The compressor will shut down after operating unloaded for a period of time and will automatically restart on pressure demand. Kobelco Operator Interface / PLC Versatile Display.
