In almost every production environment, air demand fluctuates depending on different factors such as the time of
the day, week or even month. Extensive measurements and studies of compressed air demand profiles show that
many compressors have substantial variations in air demand.

On average 35% energy savings

Atlas Copco’s GA VSD technology closely follows the air demand by


automatically adjusting the motor speed. This results in on average 35%
energy savings. The lifecycle cost of a compressor can be cut by an
average of 22%. In addition, lowered system pressure with GA VSD
dramatically minimizes energy use across your production.

VSD: DRIVING DOWN YOUR ENERGY COSTS
Over 70% of a compressor’s lifecycle cost is taken up by the energy it consumes. Moreover, the generation
of compressed air can account for more than 40% of a plant’s total electricity bill. To cut your energy costs,
Atlas Copco has pioneered Variable Speed Drive (VSD) technology for several decades. VSD leads to major
energy savings, reducing the consumption of energy producing fuels and protecting the environment
for future generations. Thanks to continual investments in this technology, we offer the widest range of
integrated VSD compressors on the market.

What is VSD technology?


In almost every production environment, air demand fluctuates depending on different factors (time of the day, week or even month).
Extensive measurements and studies of compressed air demand profiles show that many compressors have substantial variations
in air demand. Only 8% of all installations have a more stable air demand. Tests prove that, even in this case, VSD compressors
save energy.

INCREASE YOUR SAVINGS WITH
ENERGY RECOVERY
The Kyoto directives and the continuing depletion of traditional energy sources mean that businesses
throughout the world are making commitments to significantly reduce overall energy consumption.
Through innovative products and solutions, Atlas Copco helps you achieve your goals in this area.
When it comes to compressed air production – where energy costs can constitute 70% of total lifecycle
costs – saving energy can also lead to substantial cost savings.

Integrated heat exchanger


Air compression creates heat that is normally wasted in the coolers. Energy recovery systems designed by Atlas Copco enable the
recovery of most of this heat. Recovery of energy from the shaft input of the compressor can be up to 94% of the compressor shaft
power. The heat is directly usable as a source of energy in the form of hot water (85-90°C/185- 194°F). The main module of the recovery
system is built into the compressor. The investment needed to link the hot oil circuit from the compressor to the existing water circuit
is relatively modest and the time needed before seeing payback from your investment is generally very short.

Shower Space heating Steam boiler Process Heat driven chillers Heat exchangers

Warm air heat recovery


The ducting on your GA compressors also constitutes a simple and smart solution to generate space heating. Ducting simply directs
the warmed cooling air to where it is needed – such as workshops, storage warehouses or other facilities. To cope with seasonal
changes, louver flaps can be used to vent the warm air to the outside. An installation with motorized and thermostatically controlled
louvers is the ideal solution to accurately monitor the temperature with a full control of the flow of heating air.

Applications:
• Heating of facilities, warehouses or workshops.
• Drying air for painting and washing applications.
PROTECT YOUR PRODUCTION WITH THE GA FF
Untreated compressed air contains moisture, aerosols and dirt particles that can damage your air system
and contaminate your end product, resulting in risk of corrosion and compressed air system leaks.
Maintenance costs can far exceed air treatment costs. Our compressors provide the clean, dry air that
improves your system’s reliability, avoids costly downtime and production delays, and safeguards the
quality of your products.

All-in-one quality air production


The GA FF (Full Feature) is a ready-to-use, compact package that guarantees a pressure dewpoint of 3°C/37°F (100% relative humidity
at 20°C/68°F). All the wires and pipes are assembled in the factory, so there is no need for additional installation work. The dryers can
perform at ambient conditions up to 46°C/115°F.

Most production processes create fluctuating levels of demand which, in turn, can create energy waste in low use periods. Using the
graphic Elektronikon® unit controller, you can manually or automatically create two different system pressure bands to optimize energy
use and reduce costs at low use times. In addition, the sophisticated Delayed Second Stop (DSS) runs the drive motor only when
needed. As the desired system pressure is maintained while the drive motor’s run time is minimized, energy consumption is kept
to a minimum.

Outstanding performance
GA 355-500 compressors provide high-quality compressed air in the harshest environmental conditions.
Incorporating the patented Atlas Copco’s oil-injected screw element, they provide a long and trouble-free
life at the lowest possible operating cost.

Metal industry
QUALITY AND EFFICIENCY
Metal plants use compressed air for instrumentation, plant air and
pneumatic conveying for raw materials or ash and are in need of
an efficient solution to reduce their operating costs. Thanks to their
innovative features, our GA air compressors meet this demand.

Mining industry
ROBUSTNESS AND RELIABILITY
Compressed air is vital for the mining industry: applications include dust
bad filtration, service air, ventilation air and pneumatic tools.
The reliability and robustness of GA compressors will accomplish the
job even in the harshest conditions.

Power plants
SMOOTH AND COST-EFFECTIVE OPERATION
Power plants run round-the-clock to supply vital energy. A continuous
supply of compressed air is absolutely critical for trouble-free operation.
GA air compressors provide a reliable source of compressed air of
applications such as silt blowing and fly ash handling.

General industry
A SAFE AND RELIABLE POWER SOURCE
Many industrial companies use compressed air in their daily operations.
Applications include pneumatic tools for cutting, drilling, hammering
and grinding, pneumatic actuators and valves, ventilation systems,
packing and palleting machinery and conveyer systems.
GA compressors are designed for ultimate performance and reliability.
Keeping your production
up and running
GA compressors ensure long and trouble-free lifetime at
the lowest operating cost. At their heart are state-of-the-art
compression elements based on innovative asymmetric rotor
profiles and powered by a high efficiency electric motor.
Combined with a built-to-last drive system and heavy duty air
inlet filters, this results in maximum reliability to operate in the
toughest conditions.

Reducing your production costs


The innovative design of GA compressors reduces your energy
bill and overall compressor lifecycle costs. GA compressors
are pre-assembled packages: installation is fault-free,
commissioning time is low and no external instrumentation
air is required.

Protecting your process


The integrated water separator immediately removes 100% of the
condensate, resulting in higher air quality.

Maximizing your savings


As there is no “one size fits all” concept, we have developed
a range of features and options to help you optimize the use
of your compressor: from running the machine at high
temperatures, to extra safety devices.

A STEP AHEAD IN MONITORING
AND CONTROLS
The next-generation Elektronikon® operating system offers a wide variety of control and monitoring
features that allow you to increase your compressor’s efficiency and reliability. To maximize energy
efficiency, the Elektronikon® controls the main drive motor and regulates system pressure within
a predefined and narrow pressure band.

Dual pressure set point


Most production processes create fluctuating demands which, in turn, can create
energy waste in low use periods. Using the Elektronikon®, you can manually
or automatically create two different system pressure bands to optimize energy
use and reduce costs.

Integrated Saver Cycles


Fan Saver Cycle reduces the energy consumption by switching off the fan
in light load applications. Using an ambient sensor to monitor the required
dew point suppression, the Elektronikon® starts and stops the dryer,
minimizing energy use.

Week timer
An on-board clock enables timers to be set up to support any working scheme –
per day, per week or completely customizable to your specific situation and needs.
EXCELLENCE IN INTEGRATED AIR QUALITY
Untreated compressed air contains moisture and aerosols which increase the risk of corrosion and
compressed air system leaks. This can result in a damaged air system and contaminated end product.
Maintenance costs can far exceed air treatment costs. Our compressors provide the clean, dry air that
improves your system’s reliability, avoids costly downtime and production delays, and safeguards
the quality of your products.

Save money and the environment


Avoid risk of corrosion and system leaks, and ensure the effective safe disposal of untreated condensate – all within ISO 14001 standards.

On average 50% energy savings with newly


designed integrated dryers
• Pressure dew point of 3°C (100% relative humidity at 20°C).
• Heat exchanger cross-flow technology with low pressure drop.
• Zero waste of compressed air thanks to no-loss condensate drain.
• Reduced operating costs.
• Environmentally-friendly characteristics; zero ozone depletion.
• Global warming potential has been reduced significantly by an average
of 50% by reducing the amount of refrigerant in the new dryer.

Optional integrated compressor controller
Install, with a simple license, the optional integrated compressor
controller and get simple, central control to reduce system pressure
and energy consumption in installations of up to 4 (ES4i) or 6 (ES6i)
compressors.

Dual pressure set point


& delayed second stop
Most production processes create fluctuating levels of
demand which, in turn, can create energy waste in low use
periods. Using either the standard or graphic Elektronikon®
controller, you can manually or automatically create two different
system pressure bands to optimize energy use and reduce costs at low
use times. In addition, the sophisticated Delayed Second Stop (DSS) runs
the drive motor only when needed. As the desired system pressure is
maintained while the drive motor’s run time is minimized, energy
consumption is kept at a minimum.

Recover and save energy


As much as 90% of the electrical energy used by a compressed air solution is converted into heat. Using
Atlas Copco’s integrated energy recovery systems, it is feasible to recover up to ≈ 75% of that power input
as hot air or hot water without any adverse influence on the compressor’s performance. Through efficient
usage of the recovered energy, you bring about important energy cost savings and obtain a high return on
investment.

Atlas Copco GA 15-26 / GA 11+-30 compressors - 9


Excellence in quality air
Untreated compressed air contains moisture, aerosols and dirt particles that can damage your
air system and contaminate your end product. The resulting maintenance costs can far exceed air
treatment costs. GA compressors provide the clean, dry air that improves your system’s reliability,
avoiding costly downtime and production delays, and safeguarding the quality of your products.

Integrated purity
Many Atlas Copco compressors (Full Feature option)
come with an integrated dryer that efficiently
removes moisture, aerosols and dirt particles to
protect your investment. This quality air expands the
life of equipment, increasing efficiency and ensuring
quality in your final product.

Main benefits of the new,


integrated dryer solutions
• Thanks to the Saver Cycle, based on an extra
ambient sensor, the dryer will shut down when
a normal dew point is reached, meaning that
2/3 of the dryer’s power can be recuperated
(optional for GA+).
• Available in several variants, allowing you to
gain high-quality air in all ambient conditions.
• Pressure dew point at 3°C/37°F on GA and GA+
(100% relative humidity at 20°C/68°F, 5°C/41°F
on GA).
• The dryer’s global warming potential has been
reduced by 44%. This not only results from the
refrigerant type R134a’s environmentally-
friendly characteristics, but also from the
smaller volume that is needed (valid for both
GA and GA+).
• Can be outfitted with optional UD+ filter,
allowing you to obtain the exact air quality you
need for your specific application.

VSD: DRIVING DOWN YOUR ENERGY COSTS
Over 70% of a compressor’s lifecycle cost is taken up by the energy it consumes. Moreover, the generation
of compressed air can account for more than 40% of a plant’s total electricity bill. To cut your energy costs,
Atlas Copco has pioneered Variable Speed Drive (VSD) technology for several decades. VSD leads to major
energy savings, reducing the consumption of energy producing fuels and protecting the environment
for future generations. Thanks to continual investments in this technology, Atlas Copco offers the widest
range of integrated VSD compressors on the market.

What is VSD technology?


In almost every production environment, air demand fluctuates depending on different factors (time of the day, week or even month).
Extensive measurements and studies of compressed air demand profiles show that many compressors have substantial variations
in air demand. Only 8% of all installations have a more stable air demand. Tests prove that, even in this case, VSD compressors
save energy.

Energy savings on average up to 35%


Atlas Copco’s VSD technology closely follows the air demand
by automatically adjusting the motor speed. This results in large energy
savings of up to 35%. The Life Cycle Cost of a compressor can be cut
by an average of 22%. In addition, lowered system pressure with VSD
minimizes energy use across your production dramatically.

INCREASE YOUR SAVINGS WITH
ENERGY RECOVERY
The Kyoto directives and the continuing depletion of traditional energy sources mean that businesses
throughout the world are making commitments to significantly reduce overall energy consumption.
Through innovative products and solutions, Atlas Copco helps you achieve your goals in this area.
When it comes to compressed air production – where energy costs can constitute 70% of total lifecycle costs
– saving energy can also lead to substantial cost savings.

Integrated heat exchanger


Air compression creates heat that is normally wasted in the coolers. Energy recovery systems designed by Atlas Copco enable the
recovery of most of this heat. Recovery of energy from the shaft input of the compressor can be up to 94% of the compressor
shaft power. The heat is directly usable as a source of energy in the form of hot water (85-90°C/185- 194°F). The main module of the
recovery system is built into the compressor. The investment needed to link the hot oil circuit from the compressor to the existing
water circuit is relatively modest and the time needed before seeing payback from your investment is generally very short.

Shower Space heating Steam boiler Process Heat driven chillers Heat exchangers

Warm air heat recovery


The ducting on your GA compressors also constitutes a simple and smart solution to generate space heating. Ducting simply directs
the warmed cooling air to where it is needed – such as workshops, storage warehouses or other facilities. To cope with seasonal
changes, louver flaps can be used to vent the warm air to the outside. An installation with motorized and thermostatically
controlled louvers is the ideal solution to accurately monitor the temperature with a full control of the flow of heating air.

Applications:
• Heating of facilities, warehouses or workshops.
• Drying air for painting and washing applications.
PROTECT YOUR PRODUCTION WITH THE GA FF
Untreated compressed air contains moisture, aerosols and dirt particles that can damage your air system
and contaminate your end product, resulting in risk of corrosion and compressed air system leaks.
Maintenance costs can far exceed air treatment costs. Our compressors provide the clean, dry air that
improves your system’s reliability, avoids costly downtime and production delays, and safeguards the quality
of your products.

All-in-one quality air production


The GA FF (Full Feature) is a ready-to-use, compact package that guarantees a pressure dewpoint of 3°C/37°F (100% relative humidity
at 20°C/68°F). All the wires and pipes are assembled in the factory, so there is no need for additional installation work. The dryers can
perform at ambient conditions up to 46°C/115°F.

Save money and the environment Optimized air purity

Dual pressure set-point and Delayed Second Stop


Most production processes create fluctuating levels of demand which, in turn, can create energy waste in low use periods. Using the
graphic Elektronikon® unit controller, you can manually or automatically create two different system pressure bands to optimize energy
use and reduce costs at low use times. In addition, the sophisticated Delayed Second Stop (DSS) runs the drive motor only when
needed. As the desired system pressure is maintained while the drive motor’s run time is minimized, energy consumption is kept
to a minimum.

VSD: driving down energy costs
Variable Speed Drive

Driving down energy costs


Over 80% of a compressor’s lifecycle cost is taken up by the energy it consumes. Moreover, the

generation of compressed air can account for more than 40% of a plant’s total electricity bill. To cut your

energy costs, Atlas Copco pioneered Variable Speed Drive (VSD) technology in the compressed air

industry. VSD leads to major energy savings, while protecting the environment for future generations.

Thanks to continual investments in this technology, Atlas Copco offers the widest range of integrated

VSD compressors on the market.

Energy savings up to 35%


Atlas Copco's VSD technology closely follows the air demand by

automatically adjusting the motor speed. This results in large

energy savings of up to 35%. The Life Cycle Cost of a compressor

can be cut by an average of 22%. In addition, lowered system

pressure with VSD minimizes energy use across your production

dramatically.

What is unique about the integrated Atlas Copco VSD?


1. The Elektronikon® controls both the compressor and the integrated converter, ensuring maximum

machine safety within parameters.

2. Flexible pressure selection with VSD reduces electricity costs.

3. Specific converter and motor design (with protected bearings) for the highest efficiency across the

speed range.

4. Electric motor specifically designed for low operating speeds with clear attention to motor cooling and

compressor cooling requirements.

5. All Atlas Copco VSD compressors are EMC tested and certified. Compressor operation does not

influence external sources and vice versa.

6. Mechanical enhancements ensure that all components operate below critical vibration levels

throughout the entire compressor speed range.

7. A highly efficient frequency converter in a cubicle ensures stable operation in high ambient

temperatures up to 50°C/122°F

8. No ‘speed windows’ that can jeopardize the energy savings and the stable net pressure. Turndown

capability of the compressor is maximized to 70-75%.

9. Net pressure band is maintained within 0.10 bar, 1.5 psi.
