SF 1 – 22

Cost-Efficient, High-Quality Air

With its state-of-the-art oil-free compressor technologies such as screw, tooth, centrifugal, reciprocating and scroll, Atlas Copco provides the right solutions for your specific needs. As oil-free compressed air is a prerequisite for many manufacturing processes, we ensure consistent oil-free air by preventing oil from entering your compressed air system.

The SF and SF+ ranges of oil-free scroll air compressors unite Atlas Copco’s vast experience and knowledge in a class-leading package. Whereas the SF range includes a standard pneumatic controller, the SF+ range boasts the high-end Elektronikon® controller. Reliable and compact, they both answer your demands through innovative technologies and supreme energy efficiency without compromising on quality.

PURE OIL-FREE AIR

As there is no metal-to-metal contact between the compression scrolls, there is no need for oil lubrication in the compression chamber. Therefore, the scroll compression principle guarantees high-quality, oil-free air. As a result, the SF compressor is oil-free in every way.

Description

ENERGY EFFICIENCY

The SF scroll compressors, standard equipped with IE3 Premium efficiency motors, are suited for sensitive applications which require flexibility and energy efficiency. Unloaded power consumption is eliminated thanks to the simple start/stop control. Advanced scroll technology guarantees an optimal free air delivery and low duty cycle applications.

EXTREMELY LOW NOISE LEVEL

The slow speed of the scroll compression elements ensures that the SF scroll compressors are extremely quiet. Sound levels are as low as 53 dB(a), making the SF the perfect choice for your sensitive working environment.

SIMPLICITY AND RELIABILITY

The SF scroll compressors stand for simplicity and reliability. The compressor has a minimal number of moving parts, ensuring a long operating life with limited service interventions. With their integrated design, Atlas Copco’s SF scroll compressors have a minimal footprint and offer easy serviceability.

PROVEN PEACE OF MIND

For over sixty years, Atlas Copco has been leading the industry in oil-free compressed air technology, drawing on vast experience and continuous technological innovations. You can rest assured at all times: severe certification and testing procedures are conducted to ensure air is supplied to the highest standards of quality control.

SF 1-22, Efficient, Silent & Compact

The SF 1-6/SF+ 2-6 is a complete package uniting the element, drive motor, aftercooler and starter in a super silent acoustic enclosure to be installed directly into your work environment. It is also available as a Full Feature unit with integrated refrigerant air dryer. Three receiver mounting options are available: with an extended canopy that includes three integrated 10 liter galvanized air receivers or mounted on an internally coated 270 liter (72 gallon) or 500 liter (132 gallon) horizontal receiver.

SF+ 8-22, Modular & Flexible

SF+ 8-22 multi-scroll units bring in the benefits and flexibility of a modular system utilizing two to four compressor modules integrated into one canopy. The Elektronikon® continuously monitors the status of each element and starts and stops the compression elements, thereby ensuring that the compressed air output matches the air demand. Moreover, the perfect air quality and user-friendliness of these units guarantee a superior production process.

ADVANCED SCROLL TECHNOLOGY

Air compression is achieved by the interaction of a fixed and orbiting scroll. Air at inlet pressure enters the compression chamber at the exterior side of the scroll element. Once air is drawn in, the orbiting scroll seals off the inlet port. As the scroll continues to orbit, the air is progressively compressed into an increasingly smaller ‘pocket’. A continuous flow of compressed air leaves the scroll element through a discharge port in the center of the fixed scroll. This process is continuously repeated, resulting in the delivery of pulse-free compressed air.

Variable Flow Technology (VFT)

All SF+ 8-22 multi-scroll compressors are equipped with the unique VFT control system. The VFT system, included in the Elektronikon® controller, automatically starts and stops the scroll elements to exactly match the demands of your compressed air system. The Elektronikon® control algorithm ensures that
the system pressure is kept within a very narrow pressure band.

WorkPlace Air System™ compressors: the sound of silence

A low noise level enables the compressor to be installed close to the compressed air application, minimizing the size of the air distribution system and reducing pressure loss and the potential for leakage. As the air treatment is completely integrated, the installation costs are substantially reduced, making multiple compressor installations practical and financially viable. To ensure maximum energy efficiency, Atlas Copco offers both traditional on/off regulating systems where the air demand is constant.

CLASS ZERO: THE INDUSTRY STANDARD

Oil-free air is used in all kinds of industries where air quality is paramount. These applications include food and beverage processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, petrochemical processing, wastewater treatment, and many more. In these critical environments, contamination by even the smallest quantities of oil can result in costly production downtime and product spoilage.

First in oil-free air technology

Over the past 60 years Atlas Copco has pioneered the development of oil-free air technology, resulting in a range of air compressors that provide 100% pure, oil-free air. Through continuous research and development, Atlas Copco achieved a new milestone, setting the standard for air purity as the first manufacturer to be awarded ISO 8573-1 Class 0 certification.

Eliminating any risk

As industry leader committed to meeting the needs of the most demanding customers, Atlas Copco requested the renowned TÜV institute to type-test its range of oil-free compressors. Using the most rigorous testing methodologies available, all possible oil forms were measured across a range of temperatures and pressures. The TÜV found no traces of oil at all in the output air stream. Thus Atlas Copco is the first compressor manufacturer to receive Class 0 certification, according to ISO 8573-1 Class 0 Ed. 3 2010 specifications.
