High Quality Compressed Air |  |
As proven by the KCT series, modern reciprocating compressors now provide a reliable and efficient source of quality compressed air for many applications in the food and beverage industries. KCT series compressors from Kaeser not only produce quality compressed air, but also save space and provide significant energy savings at the same time. The range covers air deliveries from 110 to 840 l/min with drive powers between 0.75 and 4 kW. All units are state-of-the-art ‘dry running’ reciprocating compressors that feature high performance valves, low piston speeds and generously sized bearings to ensure long service life and low maintenance requirement. Precision machined, coated cylinders safeguard against corrosion and guarantee minimal wear, making a so-called ‘run-in period’ unnecessary. All KCT packages are equipped with premium efficiency CEMEP “EU-eff2” drive motors, which means that they meet the high requirements of the new CEMEP voluntary commitment to "high efficiency" adopted by European motor manufacturers. EU-eff2 motors require less energy, operate at a lower temperature and therefore offer greater durability than conventional motors. The efficient cooling system with its special air flow design, powerful fan, multiple cooling fins and heavy-duty components allows continuous operation at up to 10 bar maximum pressure*). The compressor operates quietly and efficiently, but if required an additional sound absorbing enclosure reduces sound levels even further. A range of drive power versions and models with horizontal or vertical air receivers is also available. *) Continuous operation up to 10 bar only possible for 2.4 to 4 kW models
