CAPS Australia says Australian companies are increasingly choosing premium compressors over budget equipment.
According to CAPS Australia, it has noticed customers trending toward premium units such as Ingersoll-Rand 2-stage Variable Speed Drive compressor, due to the improving economic conditions.
CAPS Australia says this trend is a result of renewed confidence in the marketplace. The company claims the Nirvana two-stage VSD delivers great efficiency and improved associated running costs when compared to cheaper alternatives.
The manufacturer says Australian companies are adopting a longer-term view and can see the energy and emissions benefits possible with premium compressors.
The Nirvana 2-stage VSD uses two compression stages. In the first stage the rotor uses a profile for high displacement and a discharge at relatively low pressure. The second stage profile achieves compression to final package pressure.
Combined with the Nirvana's Hybrid Permanent Magnet (HPM) Synchronous Motor Technology, the technology allows the Nirvana to run at 95% operating efficiency throughout its entire speed range.
