Atlas Copco Rental Europe invests in high-pressure compressors
Utorok, 2017, novembra 7
Boom, Belgium: Atlas Copco Rental Europe extends its fleet with 20 Atlas Copco Y35 Drillair units. These compact and efficient, high-pressure, diesel-driven screw compressors deliver a pressure of up to 35 bar. The compressor’s design complies with the most stringent European emission standard, Stage IV. With this versatile addition, Atlas Copco Rental Europe takes another step in extending its rental fleet to meet the increased demand for higher pressures and flows at a lower cost.
With the introduction of the newest Y35 units, Atlas Copco Rental Europe upgrades its fleet with a compressor that covers a wide operating pressure range. Thanks to the Extended Pressure Range (XPR) technology, the pressure can be set as anywhere between 15 and 35 bar, making these all-rounders suitable for any heavy duty work such as foundation drilling in hard soil or bedrock.
The latest and cleanest technology
Bringing environmentally friendly solutions to the drilling industry
“Companies in foundation, geothermal or water well drilling often struggle to keep pace with the increasingly stringent norms and standards in the industry. That’s where we can offer the benefits of working with state of the art equipment, without having to take the initial investment,” explains Inge Craninckx, Marketing Manager Atlas Copco Rental Europe. “These Y35 Drillair units are ideal for drilling projects or any other projects that require between 15 and 35 bar of pressure.”
More applications in the future
"Part of this new fleet of Y35 compressors are adapted for offshore use, an industry branch with important growth potential. Beginning of 2018, we will launch a booster that can bring the operating pressure to 200 bar in just two stages, which would make the Y35 a space-saving solution for pipeline pre-commissioning activities such as pressure testing, dewatering, drying & nitrogen flushing.” continues Craninckx.
