PAP Plus A1 Features & Benefits

Designed to exact specifications – from API 672 to end users’ own complex needs.
Straight-through intercooler tube accommodates periodic cleaning, rather than replacement.
State-of-the-art, backward leaning impeller design that provides a broad range of superior aerodynamic performance characteristics.
Adjustable inlet guided vane adjust to plant conditions and load variations to save energy.
Full-capacity auxiliary oil pump continues normal, safe operation in the event of a main oil pump failure.
Filter monitoring package allows operators to receive real-time differential pressure of the oil and air filters.
Microprocessor-based smart transmitters capable of performing evaluations and producing diagnostics allow the operator to understand the condition of their compressed air system from a remote location.
Horizontally split gear case and internal components are integral features of the only truly field-serviceable gear box in the industry.
Regulus Control System allows the operator to control and manage the performance of one or multiple compressors, at the unit or remotely, to meet air demands while maximizing savings.
ISO 8573-1 CLASS 0, 100% oil-free air minimizes downtime from oil contamination in the production line and eliminates the need for off-site condensate disposal.
Engineered coatings designed for extreme conditions provide extended service life of internal and external surfaces, reduced maintenance, and corrosion prevention.
