175HP Two Stage Screw Air Compressor

175HP Two Stage Screw Air Compressor Once a plant's demand passes roughly 900 CFM, the compressor decision stops being about the motor and starts being about how much air reaches the machines. A plant ordering a 175 hp air compressor is normally replacing two or three smaller units, or feeding one process that cannot be left short. Model SAD-132 sits in that class: 132 kW (175 HP), two stage compression, and free air delivery published at 28, 25.5 and 20 m³/min (989, 900 and 706 CFM) at 8, 10 and 13 bar, direct drive and air cooled. A two stage screw compressor does not carry a single flow figure. It carries one for each pressure in its band, and this frame runs 28 m³/min (989 CFM) at 8 bar, 25.5 m³/min (900 CFM) at 10 bar and 20 m³/min (706 CFM) at 13 bar. The distance between the two ends is 8 m³/min (283 CFM) of the same machine, so the pressure a plant works at decides how much air it is buying. Take your own demand reading at your own pressure first, then read the line that ma…
