Fixed-Speed GA Well suited where compressed air demand remains relatively consistent.
GA VSD+ Adjusts motor speed to follow changing compressed air demand.
Air Demand Profile Select from measured air demand rather than installed horsepower alone.
Energy Cost Electricity is a major component of compressor lifecycle cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

Atlas Copco Rotary Screw Compressor FAQs

What is an Atlas Copco oil-injected rotary screw compressor?

It uses two rotating screw elements to compress air. Lubricant provides cooling, sealing and lubrication before being separated from the compressed air.

What applications are Atlas Copco rotary screw compressors used for?

They are widely used in manufacturing, automation, assembly, packaging, machining and other continuous industrial compressed air applications.

What is the difference between GA and GA VSD+?

Standard GA compressors use fixed-speed operation, while GA VSD+ compressors vary motor speed to more closely follow changing plant demand.

When should I choose an Atlas Copco VSD compressor?

VSD compressors are particularly attractive where compressed air consumption changes significantly through the production cycle.

Can Atlas Copco GA compressors include an air dryer?

Yes. Full Feature GA configurations can integrate refrigerated drying and related air-treatment components into the compressor package.

What is an Atlas Copco WorkPlace compressor?

WorkPlace packages are designed for low-noise installation closer to the point of use and can reduce dependence on a traditional compressor room.

Can Atlas Copco compressors be remotely monitored?

Depending on configuration, Elektronikon and SMARTLINK can provide operating status, service information and remote monitoring.

How do I determine what size screw compressor I need?

Sizing should consider air flow, pressure, duty cycle, demand variation, storage, air treatment and future production requirements.

Does CompreVac service Atlas Copco rotary screw compressors?

Yes. CompreVac provides on-site compressor maintenance and troubleshooting as well as workshop repair support from Mississauga, Ontario.

Can CompreVac help choose between GA, G and GX?

Yes. CompreVac can review air demand, pressure, operating hours and installation requirements to help identify the appropriate Atlas Copco range.

Oil injected screw compressors designed for efficiency

The components of the oil-injected rotary screw compressors have been carefully designed in house. This reduces losses and pressure drop to a minimum, resulting in the highest compressor package efficiency. The air compressor also uses reliable components to guarantee operation in the toughest environments and running conditions. By using our rotary screw technologies you are guaranteed to a reliable and efficient compressor.

Advanced monitoring system
Most production processes create fluctuating levels of demand. This creates energy waste in low air demand periods. Using the Elektronikon® unit controller, you can manually or automatically switch between two different setpoints to optimize energy and reduce cost.   In addition, the sophisticated algorithm runs the drive motor only when needed. As the desired setpoint is maintained while the drive motor’s run time is minimized, energy consumption is kept to a minimum.

Variable Speed Drive
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've pioneered in Variable Speed Drive (VSD) Technology in the compressed air industry.   Atlas Copco's VSD technology closely follows the air demand by automatically adjusting the motor speed. This results in energy savings of up to 35%.

Recover your energy
Our oil injected compressors use an integrated energy recovery system. It recovers up to 78% of the energy from the motor and the element oil circuit. Through efficient usage of the recovered energy, you generate important energy cost savings and a high return on investment.

Monitor your system
It's important to know the status of your compressed air system. You want to achieve optimal efficiency and maximum availability. With SMARTLINK you can monitor your compressed air installation. Monitoring your system not only saves you money, but also avoids breakdowns and production losses.

Matching your specific requirements
Our GA oil-injected screw compressors bring industry-leading performance, flexible operation and high productivity, reduced enargy costs at a minimal cost of ownership. A wide range of compressors enables you to find the air solution that perfectly matches your specific requirements. Built to perform in even the harshest environments, an Atlas Copco GA keeps your production running efficiently.

Exceptional energy savings
Atlas Copco’s VSD⁺ technology closely follows the air demand by automatically adjusting the motor speed to match the compressed air supply to the demand. Combined with the innovative patented iPM (interior Permanent Magnet) motor (IE4), the GA VSD⁺ achieves average energy savings of 50%. This reduces the total lifecycle costs of the compressor up to 37% on average.

On top of energy savings up to 50% , the GA VSD⁺ realizes a Free Air Delivery (FAD) increase of up to 12% for improved efficiency and performance.
