Air Compressors, Oil-Free

Kobe Steel Ltd has announced new models of the Emeraude-ALE series of oil-free standard Air Compressors. The new compressors have achieved the world’s highest class of energy efficiency and one of the lowest levels of noise during operation. In addition to Japan, the same models of this global strategic product will be manufactured at overseas locations for sale in world markets. The company has initially launched compressor models with equivalent specifications of 120-160 kW. Plans call for the lineup to be gradually expanded in the future. Kobelco Compressors Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary, is responsible for marketing the new compressors in Japan, while overseas group companies are in charge of sales abroad. Standard compressors are utility equipment used in a wide range of industries and applications. They are primarily used in supplying compressed air to power equipment and plants, as well as for painting, powder conveying and other uses. The new Emeraude-ALE compressors have achieved high efficiency and a thorough reduction in energy loss. The compressors have attained the world’s highest class of energy efficiency of 5.70 kW/ (m3/min), a 3-per cent improvement over Kobe Steel’s conventional compressors.
