WHY USE A ROTARY SCREW COMPRESSOR?

Rotary screw air compressors are popular in factories, plants, or any manufacturing facility due to the cycle on which it runs. Whereas other types of air compressors can only work for on/off cycles, rotary screw compressors run non-stop around the clock. These compressors actually work best when you leave them on 24/7. With a 100% duty cycle, rotary screw air compressors should not be shut off and started back up on a recurrent basis.

As long as a rotary screw compressor is sized correctly, its efficiency is superior to most other air compressors. While this does depend on the design of a particular brand of the compressor, the best models on the market help factories maximize efficiency across the chain of production. Click here to learn more about how rotary screw compressors work.

ADVANTAGES OF A ROTARY AIR COMPRESSOR FROM KAISHAN 

Low Operating Costs. With the ability to adjust air output ranging from zero to 100 percent, Kaishan’s compressors run most efficiently to ensure keeping costs down. Our compressors offer exceptional energy-saving performance because when the air consumption decreases, the machine’s air output and motor electric current declines as well. If the compressor is not consuming air after an extended period, it will idle and shut off, which will save energy and reduce operating costs. However, when the air consumption increases, the compressor will automatically start.

Environmental adaptability. Not only do our electric screw air compressors withstand high temperatures and humid working environments, but Kaishan’s stationary electric screw compressor has excellent vibration isolation. Our systems have noise reduction technology, and you don’t need a special base for installation. A small area is sufficient for proper air circulation and machine maintenance. 

Electric control system. The stationary’s electric control system has protection functions and powerful fault diagnosis. Controlled by intelligent components, the compressor can function 24/7 without human monitoring. When it detects a fault, actionable steps are taken immediately.

Energy-saving method. Our energy-saving method makes the air equal to the air consumption and controls the flow by altering the motor’s rotating speed, so air output can change according to air consumption.

Safety and stability. Rotary screw air compressors power many machines and systems that operate under extreme conditions or temperatures, or that pose too many risks with standard electrical power sourcing. While other systems can experience frequent electrical overloading and temperature-related malfunctions — even fires and explosions — air compressors hold up well in such conditions, from furnace-like heat to extreme cold. 

Efficiency. The highly steady and easily adjustable nature of rotary air compressors makes them one of the most efficient and versatile power sources on the market. Typical applications run on automated modes, making your productions systems as smooth and seamless as possible.

Cost-effectiveness. While certain large-scale, multi-cylindered compressors may have higher up-front building and installation costs, you save time and energy in the long run. Overall production costs decrease in most manufacturing and industrial applications when utilizing cutting-edge, well-maintained rotary screw air compressor machines.

Storage. Accessing and utilizing consistent stored energy is a problem across industries. The ease at which pressurized air can be stored means you have a constant source upon which to rely. In cases of volatile or fluctuating usage, these storage reserves offer an easy and efficient in-house solution.

Kaishan Europe is a manufacturer of belt drive air compressors, providing efficient, innovative, reliable compressors to customers across a wide range of industries, including automotive repair, industrial applications, manufacturing facilities and more. A belt drive compressor is a type of rotary screw compressor in which a belt delivers energy from the motor to the compressor pump.

Compressors that are belt driven offer numerous benefits, including:

• High-efficiency operation
• Low operating temperature
• Economical performance
• Low capital investment costs
• Reduced operating costs

Kaishan Europe offers its LK belt drive air compressor in two configurations:

• 4-7 kW Base Mount
• 11-15kW Base Mount

WHY CHOOSE A BELT-DRIVEN COMPRESSOR?

A belt drive air compressor offers several differences in contrast to its direct drive compressor. In a direct drive compressor, the motor is connected directly to the compressor pump. The belt drive construction offers increased flexibility in pressure, and our 5 – 50 horsepower compressors are targeted to efficiently and reliably deliver compressed air for numerous industries and uses.

Belt-driven compressors are ideally suited for:

• Automotive repair shops and facilities
• Manufacturing operations
• Heavy-duty industrial applications

The benefits of a belt-driven compressor in these applications include:

A highly reliable flow of compressed air — Reliability is key in air compressors. Failure in an automotive belt-driven air compressor, for example, would mean that a facility wouldn’t be able to stay on track with repair jobs, potentially losing time, money and customers.

Efficient delivery — Kaishan has researched, developed and engineered our belt-driven compressors to operate with minimal loss of power from the motor to the pump. This means the ongoing operating costs of belt-driven compressors can be lower than any other option.

Easy maintenance — With high-quality components, maintenance is required less frequently than it otherwise would be. In cases where replacement parts are required, the compressor drive belt and other components can be easily serviced, allowing both the machine and the customer operation to get back up and running quickly. 

THE KAISHAN DIFFERENCE

Kaishan Europe offer several standard features in our belt drive compressors that our competitors don’t, including:

Aftercooler: Standard on every compressor, the aftercooler reduces the amount of water that must be removed by an air dryer, adding an additional layer of protection for downstream moisture-sensitive tools and equipment.

Independent fan motor: Most compressors operate the compressor and the fan from the same shaft, meaning that both components must always be in operation at the same time. With an independent fan motor, Kaishan compressors allow you to start and stop the fan based on ambient conditions, introducing better energy efficiency into your system.

Enclosure: A noise-dampening enclosure comes with every Kaishan compressor, providing quiet operation without additional costs.

Automatic belt tensioner: Our belt tensioners maintain constant tension on belts without needing to manually set and make adjustments as the belt stretches over time.

Advanced controls: Instead of a simple pressure switch, our standard controls include a phase monitor, amp monitor, and a 16-machine network capacity so that multiple machines can work efficiently together. We also feature built-in maintenance timers and shutdown sensors to protect equipment.

Overall, Kaishan’s standard features improve safety, efficiency, and performance across the board.

At Kaishan Europe, we focus on helping you select the right compressor for your shop and your customers, knowing that cost is critical for operations of all sizes. We engineer our compressors to operate efficiently, and offer a range of options at different capital investment levels. Across our product line, costs remain controlled thanks to our fully integrated manufacturing operation with efficient production and stringent, integrated QC that passes on quality and cost savings to you and your customers.
