Description
Oil-free screw air compressors ZR & ZT (VSD)
Our oil-free rotary screw and tooth compressors are designed to have the lowest lifecycle cost and deliver the highest quality air for industry standards.
ZR & ZT compressors are used in industries that require high compressed air quality standards such as Food & Beverage, pharmaceutical, automotive, medical, textile, power generation, chemical, battery, automotive industry and many others.
Difference between ZR & ZT
Both our ZR and ZT produce certified oil-free air that protects all your critical processes and products.
The difference? The ZR is water-cooled, the ZT is air-cooled. With pressure levels ranging from 3.5 up to 13 bar, we maximize your energy savings with a choice of rotary tooth or screw technologies with optimal air quality.

Global presence – local service
Our aftermarket product portfolio is adapted to your needs. Ensuring optimum availability and reliability of your compressed air equipment at the lowest possible operating costs.
Meets the top quality standard in the food & beverage industry
ISO 22000 certification for our oil-free production facility in Antwerp, Belgium. The food safety management system is applicable to all our Z type class 0 oil-free air compressors and related dryers and filters.
Energy Efficiency
Designed for energy efficiency
The components of our ZR/ZT oil-free rotary screw air compressor range have been carefully designed in-house. This reduces losses and pressure drop to a minimum, resulting in the highest compressor package efficiency.
Our oil-less compressors are also class 0 certified, delivering the highest air purity at the lowest total cost of ownership. By using our rotary screw technologies you are guaranteed a reliable and efficient compressor.
Variable speed drive energy savings add up
Over 80% of a compressor's lifecycle cost is taken up by the energy it consumes.
The generation of compressed air can account for more than 40% of a plant's total electricity bill. To cut your energy costs we have pioneered Variable Speed Drive (VSD) Technology in the compressed air industry.
Atlas Copco's VSD technology closely follows the air demand and automatically adjusts the motor speed, resulting in energy savings of up to 35%.
Recover your energy
Turn your compressor into an energy source. Our water-cooled screw compressors can be equipped with an Energy Recovery unit. This helps you achieve your low carbon economy goals.
Up to 94% of the electrical energy is converted into compression heat. Without energy recovery, this heat is lost in the atmosphere. Our energy recovery unit uses compression heat to heat up water that can be used for sanitary purposes, space heating, or process applications.
Save energy with smart technology
Our compressor monitoring system saves energy by using advanced control algorithms. Our delayed second stop function uses air demand data to stop the compressor whenever possible. The dual pressure band can lower the pressure in your system during e.g. weekends and night shifts.
Our Elektronikon® controller is the brain of the compressor collecting data for optimal energy efficiency.
Monitor your system
It's important to know the status of your compressed air systems. With the Elektronikon® you can easily connect your controller with your mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones.
Our SMARTLINK system allows mobile monitoring over a secure network. Monitoring your system not only saves you money but also avoids breakdowns and production losses.

Veolia Energy Poznań with Volkswagen Poznań have launched a joint project for industrial heat recovery. Energy, heat from industrial processes, is used to supply more than 30 buildings in the district Wilda, including the HCP hospital in Poznań.
Thanks to our oil free screw compressors, which are necessary in the foundry of Volkswagen Poznań, this very energy-intensive process (up to 80% of the electricity consumed by the compressor goes into heat energy) is transformed to power the municipal heating system.
