Atlas Copco ZT 30-50 VSD+ oil-free compressors: Key features
Here are the key features of Atlas Copco’s ZT 30-50 VSD+ oil-free compressors including advanced filtration systems and IP66 quality and safety rating.
1. Advanced inlet and filtration system
The journey of air through the ZT 30-50 VSD+ begins with the inlet filter, which is responsible for eliminating contaminants from the air before it is compressed. The air within the compressor achieves precise load-unload regulation as it passes over the integrated blow-off valve in the filter, which helps optimise the efficiency and performance of the compressor.
The filtration system is specifically designed to handle high dust environments, ensuring consistent airflow and preventing premature wear.
2. Efficient compressed air process
The ZT 30-50 VSD+ utilises a multi-stage compression process to increase the air pressure, while maintaining optimal energy efficiency. After the first compression stage, the air is cooled in the intercooler before being subjected to high pressure in the final compression stage. Advanced moisture separation systems, throughout the compression process, ensure the delivery of dry air that will not erode your equipment.
The advanced design ensures consistent Class 0 oil-free air delivery, essential for critical applications in industries like pharmaceuticals and electronics.
3. Integrated dryer for moisture control
The ZT 30-50 VSD+ features an integrated dryer as an additional safeguard against droplets of moisture in the air it delivers. By mixing cooled wet compressed air with regeneration air, the dryer delivers dry compressed air with a guaranteed dew point, ensuring optimal performance and protection against moisture-related issues.
4. Optimised air flow and cooling system
Designed for maximum efficiency, the ZT 30-50 VSD+ is equipped with optimised airflow pathways and strategically positioned components that minimise pressure drops within the system. The compressor is also fitted with a frequency-controlled fan that optimises cooling in all operating conditions. Consequently, ZT 30-50 VSD+ scores high marks for longevity.
The compressor’s frequency-controlled fan adjusts to varying operating conditions, reducing energy waste and prolonging the system’s lifecycle.
5. Revolutionary VSD+ technology
At the core of the ZT 30-50 VSD+ compressor lies Atlas Copco’s pioneering VSD+ technology, which automatically adjusts the speed of the motor to match the demand for air. This technology can reduce your energy consumption by up to 15% while minimising wear on your compressor’s key components, making it extra durable.
6. Enhanced durability and reliability
Fitted with in-house designed elements and a robust mechanical drive system, the ZT 30-50 VSD+ compressor offers unmatched durability and reliability. The oil-free tooth element, renowned for its efficiency and sturdiness, guarantees a consistent performance while reducing maintenance requirements.
The IP66-rated enclosure protects the compressor’s components from environmental contaminants, ensuring optimal performance even in harsh conditions.
7. Food Safety Approved and environmentally friendly
Certified by Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance for ISO 22000, ZT 30-50 VSD+ compressors comply with stringent food safety standards, making them ideal for industries requiring the highest levels of hygiene. Moreover, their oil-free operation virtually eliminates the risk of oil contamination, safeguarding product quality and environmental sustainability.
8. Advanced Elektronikon® monitoring system
The ZT 30-50 VSD+ compressor, is equipped with an advanced Elektronikon® monitoring system, featuring a touch-screen operating system, with numerous control and monitoring features. Built-in control algorithms improve efficiency and reliability, guaranteeing top-notch performance and reassurance for operators.
Integrated SmartLink connectivity allows remote monitoring and diagnostics for enhanced operational control.
9. Easy installation and maintenance
Designed to be easy to install and maintain, ZT 30-50 VSD+ compressors are available as a ‘plug & play’ package, which enables you to set up your compressor quickly and easily. Most key components are easily accessible via convenient panels, while the oil-lubricated motor bearings eliminate the hassle of re-greasing.
ZT 30-50 VSD+ compressors are designed for seamless installation with a ‘plug & play’ package. Most key components are accessible via convenient panels, and their maintenance-friendly design minimises downtime during service intervals.
10. Reliable cooling system
ZT 30-50 VSD+ compressors utilise several advanced components to optimise cooling in all operating conditions. These cooling systems consist of air-cooled oil coolers, intercoolers, aftercoolers and a frequency-controlled fan.
This prolongs equipment life and maintains consistent output even during extended operations in challenging environments.
11. IP66 rating
Atlas Copco ZT 30-50 VSD+ compressors have a certified IP66 rating, ensuring they are protected against dust, moisture, and other contaminants. This high level of protection enhances the durability and reliability of the compressors, ensuring uninterrupted performance, even in harsh conditions.
