BOGE, the German leader in intelligent compressed air solutions, has launched whisper-quiet and ultra-low vibration compressors of the BOGE EO series that feature integrated compressed air treatment and supply Class 0 oil-free compressed air.

Being completely oil-free is a must, especially in sensitive work environments. For users that require a compressor, which is quiet and compact enough to install near to their work station, BOGE has developed the new EO series. Their scroll compressors operate extremely quietly with ultra-low vibration. A modular concept with one to four airends systematically matches compressor use to demand and also offers maximum versatility - no matter whether it used on receivers, with refrigeration dryers, as a duplex unit or with a cyclone separator. From October the compressors of the EO series with a drive power of 16.5 kW and 22 kW and free air delivery from 1.5 m³/min (15 l/min) to 2.5 m³/min (2.0 l/ min) will be launched on the market.

The core component of BOGE EO-compressors (EO stands for Eccentric Oil-free) consists of one or more scroll compressors. Each of these operates with two spirals, one of which is fixed, while the other rotates eccentrically. The two spirals intertwine without touching. The intake air is continuously compressed into the increasingly narrower interior space, thereby producing pulsation-free compressed air, which is absolutely oil-free. The use of a two-stage aftercooler additionally boosts efficiency. Up to four compressors can be accommodated in a housing if particularly high quantities are needed.

Highlights include:
*Class 0 oil-free compressed air
*Quiet and ultra-low vibration for use in the workplace, and
*Intelligent compressor control.

BOGE has been a forerunner in the development of intelligent compressed air solutions for years in terms of Industry 4.0. The latest generation of BOGE control and monitoring systems make sure that the complete compressed air system can be integrated into an intelligent, adaptive overall system (”smart factory”). The situationally required compressed air performance and quality is automatically generated from an efficiency point of view. Since the maintenance of this system is also mapped taking into account condition monitoring, this results in the lowest possible life-cycle costs.
