Breathing new life into oil-free piston compressors

Piston compressors have been given a fresh face with the new oil-free PO series from BOGE. Compact, energy efficient, durable, low maintenance and highly economical to use, the complete absence of oil in the series guarantees uncontaminated compressed air. The modular format of the range is designed for flexibility. With 28 variants in series, including the option of a twin compressor units, dryers and air receivers, customers can add the appropriate component to suit their application.

The guarantee of oil-free compressed air is essential for a number of sectors and applications, where the provision of compressed air with high purity is a critical factor. Already widely used in medical environments such as hospital scanning labs and dental surgeries, this latest technology from BOGE will now benefit a range of other sectors and industries, including paint, food processing and water treatment.

The PO Series is available as both single-stage (10 bar) and two-stage (15 bar). With a slimline design, the series also provides a smaller footprint, saving on space but without any compromise on functionality or features. The combination of a closed hood with a cooling air inlet together with a low piston speed of 3m/sec and optimised air flow over the cylinder keeps vibration levels to a minimum and the temperature of components to a very low level. These factors maximise the product’s operating life while making it more energy efficient. In addition, the air compressor’s performance remains unaffected, whether being intermittently or continuously operated, with no restrictions on frequently switching on and off.
