Energy-Optimized Variable Speed Drive

Featuring Variable Speed Drive (VSD) technology, the Micro-Speed adjusts its 5.5hp/4kW IP65 oil-cooled motor to match air demand, achieving up to 30% energy savings. This efficiency-focused design reduces operational costs while maintaining consistent air output, making it adaptable to varying industrial needs.

Effortless Installation and Integration

With a plug-and-play design, the Micro-Speed requires only a 400V, 16-amp, 3-phase supply and features a soft start for low startup amps. Its 3/4 BSP female thread outlet and floor-mounted configuration simplify setup, allowing quick integration into existing workflows with minimal downtime.

Smart Control for Precision Operation

The VARI-Speed digital controller, equipped with a touch screen and WiFi-enabled monitoring, offers precise control over air pressure and flow. Maintenance warnings and a 7-day programmable start-stop function ensure the compressor aligns with operational schedules, enhancing efficiency and reliability.

Whisper-Quiet Performance

Encased in an acoustic cabinet, the Micro-Speed operates at a low 60 dB(A), creating a comfortable work environment. The removable panels facilitate easy servicing, while the compact, floor-mounted design minimizes space requirements, ideal for noise-sensitive workshops.

Built for Long-Term Reliability

The Micro-Speed’s low component count and solid seamless pipework reduce maintenance needs, while its 100% duty factor supports continuous operation. The robust air-end design enhances durability, ensuring reliable performance in demanding industrial applications over an extended lifespan.

Advanced Cooling for Consistent Output

An electric thermostatically controlled cooling system, paired with a large-capacity oil cooler, maintains optimal temperatures, even in warm conditions. This ensures consistent performance and extends component life, reducing power consumption and enhancing operational efficiency.

Flexible Air Quality Solutions

Optional refrigerated dryer and 0.01-micron oil removal filters are available to provide clean, dry air for sensitive applications. This adaptability makes the Micro-Speed suitable for industries requiring high-quality compressed air, offering tailored performance for diverse operational needs.
