New Compressors Talk to
the Internet
Ingersoll Rand unveiled its new RS30 and
RS37 models, described as the first in a
series of next generation oil-flooded, rotary
screw air compressors for use in a wide
range of industrial plant applications.
According to the company, the new compressors
improve performance through a
state-of-the-art air end. The new air end
design was developed through advanced
analytics and modeling, and includes an
optimized rotor profile that provides up
to an 18% efficiency improvement compared
with previous models. The new rotor
profile also delivers up to 15% more
airflow, providing a more reliable air supply
with less downtime and better production
efficiency, even in extreme operating
conditions. An enhanced bearing arrangement
and sealed drive system further improves
performance and reliability while
reducing the need for maintenance. The
Next Generation R-Series air compressors
are equipped with the Xe-series controller,
which allows easy remote access to,
and control of, the compressed air system
using any current web browser. Users
can receive information on compressor
performance and events by email, adjust
compressor settings remotely and program
compressors according to specific
events through real-time clock schedules.
This means users can automatically start
or stop compressors for shift changes or
preventative maintenance.
