INDUSTRIAL PISTON COMPRESSORS

Proven durability

Atlas Copco introduced the first piston compressor in 1904. Since then, we have continuously advanced the technology, most recently with the introduction of our oil-free and high-pressure series. Today, Atlas Copco piston compressors offer you the powerful combination of reliability, flexibility and low operating costs.

OIL-FREE PISTON COMPRESSORS

LZ, LF, LFx & LFxD series

When you need absolutely clean air, “technically oil-free” 5 really won’t do. Oil-injected compression, even filtered, cannot guarantee that all oil vapors, aerosols and other contaminants are removed from the air. Atlas Copco pioneered the oil-free air technology that removes any risk of contamination by oil. What is more, we also set a new standard in air quality as the first manufacturer to be certified ISO 8573-1 Class 0. With no less than four clean air piston series (the LZ, LF, LFx and LFxD), we have the right oil-free compressor for you.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Flexibility

  • Full range with different power (0.7-20 hp), pressure (4-10 bar) and power supply (230/400/460V) options.
  • Pack and full feature, base and tank mounted versions are available.

Quality air

  • ISO 8573-1 Class 0 pump produces TÜV-certified 100% clean air.
  • Dryer and dust particle filters come included as standard in the full feature and pack versions.

Reliability

  • Patented stainless steel inlet/outlet pump valves.
  • Long lifetime of 16,000 hours.
  • Elimination of oil changes ensures minimal service requirements.
  • Extremely low maintenance costs.

Energy savings

  • Direct drive offers major energy savings compared to belt-driven compressors.
  • Start-stop technology eliminates waste during the unload cycle.
  • One-bearing motor reduces mechanical friction.
OIL-FREE PISTON COMPRESSORS

LUBRICATED PISTON COMPRESSORS

LE & LT series

An Atlas Copco LE/LT compressor is your highperformance industrial air solution. The 10-bar LE and the 15/20/30-bar LT generate quality air at the lowest operating temperatures in the industry and with minimal oil carryover. Their proven design and quality materials deliver premium operation and an extra long life.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Premium reliability

  • A unique, robust design and quality materials ensure an extended product life.
  • The fan designed for optimal cooling of the air flow also balances the compressor for reduced vibration.

Low running costs

  • Use of highly durable components for improved performance.
  • Start-stop system instead of load-unload.

Easy maintenance

  • All components and service points are easily accessible.

HIGH-PRESSURE PISTON COMPRESSORS

LB booster series

When you need the best in booster performance and reliability, the Atlas Copco LB delivers.
The LB is the ideal booster for PET bottling and nitrogen applications in power plants or laser cutting. Its piston technology offers industry leading efficiency with remarkably low noise levels.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

Quiet

  • Silent from the core: optimal balancing and use of special vibration dampers.

Increased efficiency

  • Low Specific Energy Requirement: direct driven technology eliminates friction losses.
  • Low electrical peaks with soft start.
  • Low mechanical losses: half elastic motor shaft coupling minimizes torque peaks.
  • Easy operation.
  • Plug-and-play, hose in/hose out solution.

Optimal performance

  • Innovative oil lubrication system with oil ring and crankshaft channels ensures better lubrication.
  • No oil carryover with oil breathing system.

Supreme reliability

  • Based on proven, reliable LT piston compressor design.
  • Inlet and outlet safety valve protection.
  • Steel valve plates with innovative zinc-based microsphate coating for additional protection.
