Premium Compressor Design

The right product to do the job

Based on the individual customer requirements, the compressors can be combined with different options to provide maximum flexibility. The combined versions including receiver or/and dryer are space saving solution – ideal where floor space is precious.

• Compressor base mounted
• Complete package including compressor, dryer and receiver

The stand alone compressors feature a very compact design with a class-leading footprint of just 0.4 m2. In the combination with dryer and receiver the floor space can be optimised, in addition the installation is very easy.

In-house made airend

The high quality airends use state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques. They are designed with focus on reliability and efficiency. The rotors are accurate and thoroughly checked and measured by a computerised control system. The airends achieve a flat specific power consumption curve, which enables efficient use in wide rpm range.

Best efficiency – Made in Germany

e-Range highly efficient compressors, fixed and variable speed

The e-range of the ESM/VS Series are designed and manufactured in the Center of Excellence in Simmern, Germany. The most important component of a compressor, the airend, is also produced on this site. The engineering team develop airends which perfectly match the compressor requirements and achieve highest performance and efficiency levels. The engineering and manufacturing teams are proud to build this range, which is known in the market not only for the efficiency but also for the flexibility it offers. The compressors are available mounted on a receiver and with a dryer, making providing a compact solution and minimum space requirement.

A design concept based on reliability and flexibility

• Fully integrated airend - The advanced design of the high efficiency airend allows operation at low rotational speeds, and consequently lowers the energy costs. The innovative integrated design, including oil separation, oil filter and thermostatic valve, reduces the number of external hoses and components offering excellent reliability.
• Combined air/oil cooler - Equipped with a bypass for rapid warm-up and control of the oil temperature, reducing wear, eliminating condensate in the compressor system and providing low air discharge temperature.
• High efficiency electric motor - The compressors are equipped with an energy saving IE3 electric motor.
• Automatic belt tensioning system - The maintenance-free system provides automatic and accurate belt tension and extends the belt life.
• Factory-filled lubricant - Reduces service costs by extending the oil change period to up to 4,000 hours.
• Low noise levels- Allows the compressor to be placed at the point of use.
• Up to 45°C ambient temperature- Reliable operation, even in challenging environments.

Engineering excellence

Compressors are more than just a financial investment, they are a key component in ensuring that manufacturers, processors and operators receive consistent, high quality low cost air. The screw compression element is the heart of the compressor and therefore Gardner Denver keeps the design and manufacture in-house, using the latest CNC rotor grinding machinery, coupled with online laser technology. The resulting reliability and performance ensure that operating costs will remain low throughout the compressor's life.

Our top quality airends are covered by the new 10 years warranty and up to 44,000 hours*

The dryers too are designed and manufactured inhouse – the customer designed heat exchangers and patented control board delivering the very best combination of high efficiency, low pressure drop and small footprint.

* Whichever is soonest - Under the new Protect 10 warranty, which is completely free of charge, the airends are covered 10 years and up to 44,000 hours.

“Known for reliability, continuously developed in efficiency, extended with flexibility, unmatched in terms of warranty.”
