What are compressor transient losses and why do they matter?
2024年1月2日
There are 3 types of rotary screw compressors: fixed-speed, dual-speed, and variable speed drive (VSD). Compressor transient losses help explain the vast difference in energy efficiency between these 3 types.
What is a dual-speed compressor?
2024年1月2日
Until 2023, there were two types of rotary screw compressors: fixed-speed compressors and models equipped with a variable speed drive (VSD). This year, Atlas Copco introduced the dual-speed compressor. This article answers the question, what is a dual-speed compressor?
