ƒ¤ ƒ¤ ƒ¤ The Atlas Copco ZD: designed to delight customers ... Although often hidden in a dark compressor room, the air supply is a critical resource in high pressure applications, such as PET blowing or aero- nautics. An unreliable com pressor or bad quality air can be detrimental to the continuity, profitability and reputation of your operation. Furthermore, compressed air generation represents a major energy cost, and a smart choice can lead to substantial savings. It’s important to look beyond the bare purchase price, and to take into account the quality and service life of the machine...

ƒ¤ ƒ¤ ƒ¤ The design criteria for the ZD were based on a survey conducted by Atlas Copco, asking customers for their top 10 re- quirements. These needs are not revolutionary or excessive, but over the years, the 40 bar reciprocating world has concentrated on small gradual improvements rather than on a complete rethink- ing of the fundamental technological offering. Atlas Copco decided to leave the threaded paths and design a completely new system that meets these requirements like no other equipment has ever done. Not by little improvements, but by true, result driven innovation. ... through...

ƒ¤ ƒ¤ 1 2 3 4 5 The ZD joins the world renowned ZR screw compressor that delivers quality dry air at medium pressure, and the D booster, bringing the air to 40 bar. This four stage combination offers an excellent com pression ratio, reliability and component life. De- signed as a complete and tightly integrated package from one single supplier, the ZD is the true plug- and-play solution. ƒ¤ proven Atlas Copco oil-free rotary screw technology ƒ¤ no oil carry-over to compression chamber ƒ¤ oil-free air assured without seal air Oil-free air 1 - State-of-the-art Elektronikon® Mk IV control and...

ƒ¤ ƒ¤ ƒ¤ True innovation for unprecedented integration High in the “top ten chart” of customer require- ments that guided the development of the ZD, was easy transportation & install ation and noise level. The design challenge was to integrate a maximum of equipment on the compressors’ base plate. Integrated functions: the surest path to superior quality Some compressors are almost like patchwork, with many loose building blocks and components that take time to install and tune... with numerous gaskets and connections. Often, ancillary devices like dryers or pressure vessels are tested...

ƒ¤ Cylinders constitute the core of the compressor: oil-free compression chambers with the inner “strategic” components such as valves, piston rings, packings. While safeguarding the integrity of the cylinder and its famous reliability track record, the scientists chose the path of innovation to achieve several goals: ƒ¤ simplification and integration of functions for a more compact machine, allowing for a canopy enclosure ƒ¤ maintenance requirements included from the design phase ƒ¤ further improvement of reliability and component life Benefits ƒ¤ simplified design ƒ¤ no adaptation of...
