Product catalog summary
Apex Series Overview
The Gardner Denver Apex Series rotary screw air compressors, ranging from 5 to 15 HP, are designed for peak performance and reliability. The series offers customizable systems to meet specific compressed air needs while minimizing installation costs. These compressors are built with industrial-grade components, ensuring they are a long-term investment rather than disposable equipment.
Efficiency and Design
The Apex Series prioritizes efficiency by designing the airend first, resulting in improved efficiency and increased bearing life by over 50%. The compressors operate at low sound levels (as low as 67 dBA), allowing installation near the point-of-use without requiring hearing protection.
Enduro Airend Features
The Enduro airend is specifically designed for belt-driven compressors, minimizing radial load on bearings and extending airend life. It features fewer components, reducing wear and lifecycle costs, and is built with a durable cast iron shell suitable for harsh environments. The rotor profile is optimized for minimal air leakage, enhancing efficiency.
Advanced Features
The Apex Series includes the AirSmart™ controller, which offers automatic operations and diagnostic feedback. The industrial enclosure is made of thick steel with sound dampening foam, allowing flexible installation options. Additional features include a TEFC high-efficiency motor, stainless steel hoses, and an oil/air cooler for extended lubricant life.
Maintenance and Ease of Use
Maintenance is simplified, with routine tasks achievable in 15 minutes without specialized tools. The AirSmart controller provides service alerts, and the layout allows easy access to components. Features like an oil sampling port, ball valves for drainage, and accessible filters enhance maintenance efficiency.
Apex Total System
The Apex Total System integrates the compressor and dryer on an air receiver base, offering a compact, plug-and-play solution. It includes features like zero loss air drains, stainless steel piping, and a three-way bypass for continuous operation during maintenance. The RNC refrigerated dryer ensures high air quality with environmentally friendly refrigerant and optional filters for enhanced moisture and oil removal.
Comprehensive Support
Gardner Denver provides a range of compatible components, including dryers, filters, and aftercoolers, ensuring total system reliability and ongoing customer support.

Enduro Airend: A Proven Workhorse Tens of thousands in operation worldwide Designed for Belt Drives Gardner Denver designed this airend specifically for beltdriven compressor packages. Radial load to the bearings from belt tension is minimized due to the bearing and pulley design of the Enduro. This ultimately results in extended airend life. Less Components Fewer components mean fewer wear items, resulting in lower overall lifecycle costs. In addition, the opportunity for internal leaks is diminished thanks to a lower number of sealed connections. Durable Inspired by the unforgiving requirements...
