Hydrovane Compressors

Hydrovane Series rotary sliding vane compressors

The Hydrovane Series rotary sliding vane compressors are the perfect solution to meet your requirements for high quality compressed air. They can be found throughout all sectors of industry; they are ideal for many manufacturing applications and have specialist solutions within transit, gas and snow. With over three quarters of a million sold worldwide, their cost-effectiveness along with their reliability and versatility make them a leading choice for compressed air.

Benefits of the Hydrovane Series Compressors:

• Quiet: low noise levels mean the compressor can be located at point of use.
• High quality air: air is clean, dry and pulse free straight from the outlet, resulting in less downstream equipment required.
• Slow speed: 1450 – 2800 rpm speed operation, resulting in low noise and a long life.
• Direct drive: with no gears or belts, expect up to 100,000+ operating hours.
• Simple to use electronics: a high-quality starter with a robust control circuit, including over-temperature protection.
• Options: Horizontal and vertical compressor formats as standard, enclosed or open, giving the customer more choice.
• Air Station: Compressor available as a fully integrated package with dryer and receiver.
• Free Warranty: Advance 10 Warranty gives you ultimate peace of mind when purchasing a Hydrovane compressor.

HV01-04 Series

The HV01 -HV04 Series rotary vane compressors can be purchased as either a tripod or receiver mounted compressor.  Being small and compact, they are best suited for light industrial and workshop applications.

• FAD: 0.1 – 0.6 m3/min
• CFM: 4-20 cfm
• Pressure: 10 bar
• Motor Power: 1.1 – 4 kW
• Noise: 62 dB(A)

How does a Hydrovane air compressor save you energy?

Regulated Speed (RS)

• RS control ensures optimum load conditions throughout the compressor’s speed range
  Delivering maximum efficiency.

Air Intake Modulation

• Air intake modulation at minimum speed delivers further energy savings
  To match the reducing air demand.

Reduced Energy Venting System (REVS)

• In-built Reduced Energy Venting System (REVS)
  Improved part-load and off-load performance.

SMART SERVO energy reduction system

• Optimised motor, drive and air-end
  Proven air-cooled inverter drive.
  High efficiency across a broad flow range.
  Substantial energy savings delivered.

The Rotary Vane Principle

A: Air is drawn in through the intake valve.
B: Air is contained between the rotor and stator wall.
C: Air is compressed by decreasing volume. Lubricant is continually injected to cool, seal and lubricate.
D: High pressure air passes into the primary oil separator.
E: Remaining traces of lubricant are removed in a final separator element, ensuring high quality air.
F: System air passes through the aftercooler, removing most of the condensate.
G: Lubricant is circulated by differential air pressure (No lubricant pump required). It passes through an air-blast lubricant cooler and filter before being returned to the compressor.
H: Air flow is regulated by an in-built modulation system.
