HOW DO EN SERIES SCREW COMPRESSORS WORK?

The ELGi EN series rotary screw air compressors work seamlessly to generate compressed air for a wide range of industrial uses. Before entering the system, the air goes through an intake filter that ensures the elimination of contaminants, safeguarding the internal components from damage. The compression chamber, where the interlocking helical screws rotate in an anticlockwise direction, is the core of the compressor. As the screws rotate, the air is drawn into their profiles, gradually compressing the gas. Some models allow oil injection in the compression chamber, which aids in sealing the screw gaps, enhancing compression, and dissipating heat. Once compressed, the air is cooled to maintain optimal efficiency, and an oil separation mechanism removes any remaining oil. The pressure of the compressed air is meticulously controlled by sensors and control systems, and a receiver tank is used to regulate variations in demand. Finally, the compressed air is distributed through pipelines to meet various industrial requirements.
