TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS SAFETY DEVICES INSIDE This compressor works with direct coupled between vectorial type electric motor and gas screw end thanks to flexible coupling interposed between the two parts. The inverter, used in this unit, is directly interfaced with vectorial type electric moto that through the encoder provides the maximum efficiency of functionality. The unit can start only if the sensor of gas presence gives consent to run; the gas sensor leakage is ATEX Eexd type and control in each moment the gas absence inside the steel box. The safety devices installed prevent critical situations on the machine . The protection against unforeseen damage is ensured from good design and fabrication as well careful components selection (all our solutions ensure a wide range of safety), for an easy maintenance work and the operation in the same unit. The gas leak detector ensure that the functionality occurs in a zone without natural gas inside; the gas sensor will report an alarm to remove completely the power supply of the compressors. A different set of plates are applied on the compressor to advise the operator or personnel to not make risky manoeuvres that could put his own safety at risk, the safety of other people or the safety of the unit too. GAS LEAK DETECTOR The gas leak detector is a safety device that control and report any gas leaks; in case of overcoming the 10% of LEL the gas sensor will emit a warning signal visible on touch screen panel, when overcoming the 25% of LEL the gas sensor will remove all the power in the gas compressor through the external electrical safety box; in case of faulty of device the sensor give to the electronic board a signal of damaged equipment. SHUTOFF VALVE CONFIGURATION The shutoff valve has the function to close the feed of the gas inside the compressor every time the same compressor is turned off. The valve is Normally Close, 230VAC and with ATEX certification. Compressors are available for a wide range of industrial gases. We can supply CUSTOMIZED and TAILORED skid compressors solution according to the ATEX request. HIGH SPEED AND ELECTRICAL MOTOR PERFORMANCE The use of vectorial electrical motor directly coupled allows an economic savings in terms of lower power consumption. Furthermore a greater modulation of the flow-rate of the gas is ensure to the customer without using any other mechanical device like bypass valve or proportional. Thanks to the gas flow control through inverter no aspiration valve is needed. This means further maintenance costs reduction. Moreover, modbus link is already available, allowing connection and communication with compressor.
