More compressed air for less energy CSD – eight decisive advantages
1 SIGMA PROFILE airend
A given drive power can be used to turn a smaller airend at high speed or a larger
airend at slow speed. Larger, low speed airends are more efficient, delivering more
compressed air for the same drive power. This motivated KAESER to ignore expense
and develope a series of airends especially for the CSD machines of a size that
precisely match the individual drive power at low speeds. The slightly higher cost
of the larger airend is quickly recovered by the energy saved during operation.
5 Optimised separation system
CSD machines are fitted with a new, even more efficient separator system. The
cooling fluid is initially separated from the compressed air by centrifugal force in the
separator tank leaving only minimal residue to be removed by the high-capacity,
deep-bed filter in the separator cartridge. These two factors double the operational life
of the cartridge compared with conventional systems and ensure minimum aerosol
content in the compressed air delivery (less than 1 mg per cubic metre). The
improved air quality makes less work for the air treatment components. Monitoring of
the pressure drop across the separator cartridge and the new fluid level indicator are
further contributions to efficient operation.

compact and rigid unit that needs no regular maintenance apart from greasing the
motor bearings. Should the coupling ever need to be replaced it can be done just
a few minutes without any disassembly of the unit. The opening in the coupling
housing is more than adequate to replace the two coupling sections.
Please contact KAESER for specific FAD and motor
output data relating to other working pressures.
3 Innovative radial fan
Quiet and efficient - the most important features of a radial fan. Low peripheral speed
means low noise emission. Power consumption is up to 50 percent lower than a
comparable axial fan. Another advantage is the high residual thrust developed that
allows the use of exhaust ducting with a pressure drop of up to 80 Pa without the
need for an additional extractor fan.
ent and intake air conditions that can be encountered we recommend, for preventive
protection of the machine, that a fluid analysis is carried out at 6000 hours. The use of
SIGMA FLUID cooling medium leads to reduced fluid consumption because its water
vapour pressure is exceptionally low. Also, its reduced tendency to emulsify contributes
to lower costs for condensate treatment. The specially developed glass-fibre filter is
characterised by its high, dirt absorbing capacity. It cleans the cooling fluid reliably and
thoroughly, enabling the service interval to be extended to 6000 hours. The combination
of a long-life fluid and highly efficient filtration reduces service costs and increases
operational reliability.
7 Easy maintenance up-front
Changing the fluid filter, the air inlet element and the separator cartridge is done,
like all other service work, from the front of the machine. This excellent accessibility
speeds up service work significantly. More availability and less servicing effort are the
positive results of this well thought out design. The machines can be positioned close
to a wall or in a corner for space-saving.
