Compressors from the VSD series are modern technological equipment that provides users with many advantages. VSD compressor systems are equipped with electric engines that are controlled using frequency converters. The presence of a frequency converter engine in the power supply system allows you to smoothly change the speed of rotation of the shaft. The moment determines the degree of rational operation of the compressors of VSD, since due to a linear change in the speed of rotation, a linear change in performance and of course, saving electric energy can be achieved.
As part of VortEx compressor equipment, which is directly related to the VSD compressors series, reliable frequency converters from German manufacturers are used. Thanks to the use of frequency converters, the operation of engines at frequencies up to four hundred Herz is possible. Structurally, Vortex compressors differ in that they have a separate ventilation system for electrical equipment and for the compressor. Such an optimal solution makes it possible to operate VSD compressors in conditions of quite rigid when the ambient temperature reaches forty -five degrees in a plus scale. The development of VSD units is performed taking into account high performance, reliability, simplicity of maintenance.
Advantages of Vortex compressors
– energy saving up to thirty -five percent;
– strictly required amount of compressed air;
– exclusion of the apparatus in idle mode;
– the presence of a smooth start system protects the compressor engine from overload;
– Energy losses are excluded, the pressure discharge system is excluded;
– Minimum maintenance costs.
When compared with VSD compressors, standard screw compressors, the following factors should be noted: the latter, as a rule, work in full load capacity modes. In the entire range of working pressures, the load management is not carried out, which can be considered irrational. In the event that the maximum pressure level is reached, the standard screw compressor goes into idle mode. If the consumption of compressed air passes at a small or medium level, energy consumption in idle mode becomes significant. The conclusion from all of the above can be made unequivocal. The VSD compressors controlled in automatic mode are more economical and rational units.
