New Delhi, Oct 22nd, 2019: Elgi Equipments (BSE: 522074 NSE: ELGIEQUIP), one of the world’s leading air-compressor manufacturers, exhibited its oil free range of piston compressors for the railway segment at the 13th International Railway Equipment Exhibition (IREE), Asia’s largest rail transportation event. Also on display at the ELGi stall no. 54 in Hall 2, were ELGi’s encapsulated screw air compressor (EN series) and underslung auxiliary compressors. Organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), in association with the Ministry of Railways, Government of India, the IREE, scheduled from the 22nd to the 24th of October 2019, at Aerocity, New Delhi is expected to attract exhibitors and delegates from across the globe with a focus on continuous modernisation and expansion of the Indian Railways.

“The Indian Railways has been ELGi’s important customer for over four decades. Increasing urbanization and rising incomes have contributed to a significant growth in the passenger segment while freight traffic also saw a marked increase due to dedicated freight corridor investments. We’re confident that our oil free air compressors which are renowned for reliability, performance and energy efficiency, will further revolutionize the way compressed air is used in the railway industry’’ said Dr. Jairam Varadaraj, Managing Director, Elgi Equipments. Speaking at IREE 2019, Ramesh Ponnuswami, Executive Director Elgi Equipments, said “We’re proud to introduce our Oil free air compressors for the Metro/EMU segment. Indigenously developed and bearing a lighter construction tag with noiseless operation at less than 66 dbA. This product is testament to our focus on continuous innovation and delivering sustainable and efficient compressed air solutions for our customers, in line with our brand promise of being Always Better.”

ELGi’s Oil free piston series (RR10100 OF/RR20100 OF) offers railway customers clean, oil free air, enabling ease of operations, reduced maintenance costs of up to 50% and improved maintenance schedules.
