Cleaner and quieter compressors from Abac UK

The oil-free Prime Range (PR) compressors are designed for demanding laboratory and scientific applications and are available in both silenced and standard form, with or without adsorption air dryers. The silenced version, housed in a modern acoustic cabinet, can achieve noise levels as low as 54 dB(A).

These compressors do not use oil as a lubricant, and are, therefore, inherently hygienic and suitable for a range of scientific, medical and laboratory applications. When forming part of a high quality system together with an adsorption dryer and air filters, they are capable of providing very high quality uncontaminated air which easily meets all regulatory requirements. These systems can produce compressed air with an atmospheric dew-point of not less than -20ºC, dust filtration down to 1 micron and optional bacterial filtration down to 0.01micron.

All models are designed to produce a higher air output maximum air pressure of 10 bar – with less vibration. The compressor pump design allows a lower running speed, leading to reduced noise levels and longer life. Special anti-vibration mountings help to reduce pump vibration and cabinet noise further. In the PR range a choice of three motor sizes is offered, including 2hp (1.5kW) and 1hp (0.75kW) models.

The models in this range, which use an integral dryer offer a major operational advantage in that they are practically maintenance free. The receiver is also coated internally to avoid any contamination of the compressed air.
