R-Series Reciprocating Compressor (2-30 HP)

R-Series reciprocating compressors are loaded with features designed for day-in, day-out performance. This industrial air compressor delivers high performance and tremendous value. Available as a gas or diesel driven model, a maximum pressure of 175 psig can be reached with this reciprocating compressor. This product was designed to support single and two stage splash lubricated pumps. R-Series reciprocating compressors can be tank or base mounted, as a simplex or duplex model.

This compressor pump comes with a 5-year prorated warranty. As a result, R-series compressors offer long, trouble-free service with unbridled operating efficiency.  


  • 2-30 HP (1.1-26 kW)
  • Up to 175 psig
  • 4.2-202 acfm at 175 psig on electric driven units
  • Gas and diesel engine drive models available
  • Tank or Base Mounted, Simplex & Duplex Models
  • Single & Two Stage Splash-Lubricated Pumps
  • Prorated 5-Year Warranty on Pump
  • Factory filled with AEON lubricant
  • Option to have Gardner Denver Refrigerated XGNC Series dryer mounted to the package

Optional Equipment

Many options are available to help you develop a Gardner Denver compressor package that exactly matches your specific operating requirements.

  • Magnetic Starter
  • Air-Cooled or Water-Cooled Aftercooler
  • Automatic Tank Drain (Pneumatic)
  • Vibration Isolators
  • Low Oil Level Monitor
  • Refrigerated Dryer
  • Microprocessed Duplex Relay Control Panel
  • AEON™ Lubricants
  • Power Monitor
  • Constant Speed Control
  • Dual Control to run either in start/stop or constant speed mode
  • NEMA 4 rated parts
  • Alternate Voltages and TEFC, ODPHE, TEFCHE Electric 
    Motors

  • Loadless Starting: Mechanical governor-type centrifugal unloader assures longer motor life by allowing the compressor to start unloaded every time.
  • Reliable, High-Flow Disc Valves: Single-unit, disc-type valves provide low lift and long life
  • Balanced Crankshaft: Constructed of rugged ductile iron with large diameter throws for minimum bearing loads and large counterweights to minimize vibration.
  • Piston Rings: Two high efficient lap joint compression rings with bi-directional seal provide the most efficient air delivery
  • Integral Cylinder/Head: Gasketless design eliminates the possibility of blown head gaskets for trouble-free operation.
  • Multi-Finned Cylinders: Cooler operating temperatures result in longer life and consistent performance over time.
Benefits to the R-Series AirStation:
  • Complete plug-and-play system
  • Compact design and footprint—less space needed for a complete system
  • Less plumbing needed due to the removal of needing a standalone dryer
  • 3-way bypass valve and X-Series GP filter included with the dryer
  • All the above = more money saved!
