ATR has recently added a fleet of Electric Compressors, which offer improved performance over their diesel equivalents while reducing emissions and helping protect the environment.
These units fit all the ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance) criteria and send the right message to your clients, who are searching for easy options to quickly reduce their carbon footprint.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- Extremely quiet: 61dB (A)
- 233-178cfm, 72-174psi, 380v – 460v 50/60Hz
- 466-360cfm, 72-190psi, 380v – 460v 50/60Hz
- Fitted with integral aftercooler
- Practically zero emissions
- 50% lighter: 3200kg in a certified lifting frame built to DNV 2.7-1, 749kg road tow
- Smaller in size compared to their diesel equivalents which brings some other benefits such as lower freight costs, easier to manoeuvre, use less deck space
- Can be used in small areas with low ventilation (even indoors) without overheating, unlike diesel units
- IP66 rated, which means they can effectively take a wave, unlike diesel units
- Zero servicing, meaning no downtime or having to stock and control spare parts
- 50% savings on operational costs
- With a simple ‘plug & play’ set-up it’s possible to adjust the volume/pressure at the push of a button mounted on the control panel
- No need for refuelling every 8 hours, thus reducing the amount of spills and hazards that can take place during this process
- The electric units take away all the issues of dirty fuel (the most common reason for diesel compressors failing offshore is due to dirty fuel or fuel filters not being changed regularly).
