Description
General
Scroll Enclosure Air Compressors are designed to supply continuous
oil-free air by using the most advanced scroll technology. These turn-
key packages are extremely quiet and offer electronic control that will
reduce electrical power consumption.
The Oilless Rotary Scroll Air Compressor has advanced scroll
compressor technology through the development of a completely
oilless unit. The Scroll Compressor offers a dynamically balanced
air end which insures vibration-free operation. The rotary design
permits a continuous 100% duty cycle. No oil separation, oil filtration,
or intake valves are required on the Scroll Unit. The compressor is
virtually maintenance free.
The Oilless Rotary Scroll Air Compressor is based on the theory
of scroll compression. A scroll is a free standing, intricate spiral
bounded on one side by a solid, flat plane or base. A scroll set, the
basic compression element of a scroll compressor, is made up of
two identical spirals which form right and left hand parts. One of
these scroll components is indexed or phased 180° with respect to
the other so the scrolls can mesh. Crescent-shaped gas pockets are
formed and bounded by the spirals and the base plate of both scrolls.
As the moving scroll is orbited around the fixed scroll, the pockets
formed by the meshed scrolls follow the spiral toward the center
and diminish in size. The moving scroll is prevented from rotating
during this process so the 180° phase relationship of the scrolls is
maintained. The compressor's intake is at the outer boundary of the
scrolls. The entering gas is trapped in two completely opposite gas
pockets and compressed as the pockets move toward the center. The
compressed gas is discharged through the outlet at the center of the
fixed scroll so no valves are needed.
