The single-stage oil-lubricated reciprocating compressor allows filtered air to enter both cylinders through the inlet valve. The piston is driven forward through the connection rod attached to the balanced crankshaft. Maximum operating pressure is 10 bar (145psi) and capacities range from 3.4 up to 31.7 l/s at 50 Hz, 8.3 to 79.8 cfm at 60 Hz. Air compressed in the cylinders leaves through the outlet valve when the pressure reaches 10 bar (145psi).
LE compressors are exceptionally reliable, with the lowest operating temperatures in the industry, and offer quality air with low oil carryover.
The LE 2-20 range of piston compressors provides industrial performance through a wide number of product variants and options available. These oil-lubricated compressors generate quality air at the lowest operating temperatures in the industry and with minimal oil carryover. Their proven design and quality materials deliver premium operation and an extra-long life.
Thanks to the 'plug and play' design, you can expect easy installation of the compressor. While the accessibility of all components and service points enables easy maintenance.
The direct drive arrangement results in no transmission losses. Operational costs are further reduced through the use of highly durable components and a start-stop system instead of load-unload.
The LE compressor block is directly coupled to the motor and is built with lightweight materials. This provides excellent cooling and smooth integration in small spaces.
