Stationary piston compressors

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides comprehensive information on stationary piston compressors, specifically tailored for small and medium-sized companies. It covers specifications, application recommendations, and accessory options to enhance, control, maintain, and repair these systems.
Specifications: UniMaster piston compressors are designed for workshops with intermittent air supply needs. They come in vertical or horizontal vessel configurations and can be used as auxiliary compressors. The modular design allows for the addition of a cold dryer and sound-absorbing cover.
Comparison of Compressors: Piston compressors are suitable for intermittent use with a duty cycle of up to 70% per hour, while screw compressors are for continuous operation. Combining both types can efficiently manage base and peak loads.
Determining Air Requirements: Key factors include available space, room temperature, air intake and exhaust, ambient conditions, and noise levels. Consulting a specialist is recommended for energy-efficient system design.
Consultation and Project Planning: Schneider airsystems offers consultation and project planning services, providing expert advice and 2D/3D installation drawings for seamless integration into the working environment.
UniMaster Models: Various models are detailed with specifications such as pressure, suction capacity, delivery quantity, drive power, speed, tank volume, weight, noise level, and dimensions. Features include a 15-year rust guarantee, easy inspection, and options for sound-absorbing covers and cold dryers.
Technical Features: Standard features include rubber vibration elements, intermediate and after coolers, condensate drain cocks, and auxiliary sleeves. Installation and maintenance tips are provided, such as using an automatic star-delta switch for compressors above 5.5 kW.
Standard Features: Essential fittings include solenoid valves, Condor pressure switches, motor protection, safety valves, and stop cocks. A 15-year rust guarantee is provided on vessels with inner coating.
Installation Recommendations: Compressors above 5.5 kW should use an automatic star-delta switch. Sound absorption hoods are recommended for noise reduction in low-ceiling environments.
Compressor Types: Types include UniMaster STL Silent, UniMaster STH on tandem vessels, and UniMaster auxiliary compressors, each tailored for specific applications.
Accessories: Accessories include compressed air vessels, rubber dampers, sound-absorbing covers, star-delta switches, and energy-saving systems to improve stability, reduce noise, and optimize energy consumption.
Technical Tips: Recommendations include using a tandem system to prevent equipment failures and ESAR systems to save energy costs by shutting off compressed air supply when not in use.
Oil Recommendations: OEMIN-Kolben-stat 3.0 (mineral) and OESYN-Kolben-stat 3.0 (fully synthetic) oils are compared, with synthetic oil recommended for cold environments.
Pressure Gauges: Various models of pressure gauges are listed for monitoring system pressure.
Valves and Accessories: Details on mini ball valves, ball valves, safety valves, condensate drain valves, and check valves are provided.
Connecting Hoses: Specifications for connecting hoses, including pressure ratings and lengths, are crucial for system connectivity.
Silencers and Dirt Pans: Silencers for noise reduction and dirt pans for non-aggressive materials are available.
Diaphragm Pressure Switches: Detailed with voltage, current range, and pressure settings for system control and safety.
Professional Services: Schneider Professional Services offers support for compressed air systems, including analysis, consultation, planning, installation, commissioning, maintenance, and servicing.
Maintenance and Repair: Maintenance services include parts subscription, repair services, and compressor hire to minimize downtime and ensure reliability.
Contact Information: Contact details for Schneider Druckluft GmbH and Schneider Professional Services are provided for inquiries.

Which is the right compressor for the job? Piston compressor versus screw compressor A wide variety of compressors are available for compressing air. The positive displacement compressors include two main principles: piston compressors and screw compressors. The main difference is the duty cycle. One of the most important features of a piston compressor is intermittent operation, which means that their duty cycle should not exceed 70 percent an hour. Screw compressors on the other hand operate constantly and are designed to supply compressed air continuously. Excessively large screw compressors...
