11 Jun 2020

A Revolution in Piston Air Compressor Technology

Coimbatore, June 11, 2020: Elgi Equipments (BSE: 522074 NSE: ELGIEQUIP), one of the world’s leading air compressor manufacturers, today launched the ‘LD Series’ range of lubricated direct drive reciprocating air compressors. With a low life cycle cost and quick return on investment, every LD series air compressor is backed by best-in-class performance for given input power, durable parts and a minimum number of service points.

Commenting on the product launch, Rajesh Premchandran, Director, ISAAME (India, South Asia, Africa and Middle East) said, “Customers in India are challenged with increasing electricity costs, limited industrial floor space and fluctuating market demand. Taking all of this into consideration, we’ve designed the LD series range of direct drive reciprocating air compressors. Unlike conventional belt driven piston air compressors, the LD Series is compact, ensures high performance, low decibel operation and ease of maintenance.”

Reciprocating air compressors have been a part of ELGi’s DNA and over the years, ELGi has developed application specific products to address a wide range of industry applications. The direct drive piston air compressor range is an outcome of ELGi’s focus on helping organizations across the world lower energy consumption and operating costs, while achieving their productivity goals. With a unique integrated motor and top block design, the LD series which is a two stage reciprocating air compressor, offer customers a low life cycle cost while ensuring superior performance.

Key Product Benefits

Precise tolerance and effective transmission increases the flow of air
Elimination of belts reduces energy consumption
Efficient 6-pole low speed motors ensures high reliability. Eg. High lifetime of piston rings
Compact crank case significantly reduces oil fill needs
Large inter cooler with more cooling area ensures better temperature control thereby reducing load on downstream equipment
Common cooling fan for Motor and Top block unlike the conventional belt drive model results in high energy efficiency and power saving

The ‘LD Series’ lubricated direct drive piston air compressors are best suited for application across the general engineering, automotive, textile, plastics, rubber and wood working industrial segments. These industry segments specifically require high performing piston air compressors to meet fluctuating air needs and ensure energy efficiency, ease of maintenance and low noise compressor operations.
