Description
Mattei Classic ERC series air compressors feature open-frame base-mount construction and are perfect for any industrial application. Available from 2 to 60 HP with pressures to 145 psig. The main technical features of the ERC series include:
- Low rotation speed: The electric motor, which turns at just 1,800 rpm (60 hz), is directly coupled to the compressor shaft through a flexible coupling. This provides great energy savings and less maintenance as there are no transmission losses due to the absence of gears or V-belts;
- Automatic flow rate control: In addition to the classic “FULL LOAD/NO-LOAD OPERATION” modes, all models are provided with a special proportional modulating suction valve that allows constant pressure of the air supply and affords the possibility of operating even without an air receiver tank. With this MODULATION control setting, the air flow rate automatically maintains a tight pressure band as it adapts to the air demands of the network, enhancing energy efficiency;
- Robust and noiseless: Painted with epoxy powders, ERC series compressors are resistant to corrosion and scratches. Very compact, they are ideal for installation in confined areas. Vane technology ensures rugged reliability and silent operation even in the absence of a sound attenuating enclosure;
- Simple and accessible maintenance: The absence of a sound attenuating enclosure simplifies access for all maintenance and service operations. The base-mount design can be easily lifted and moved;
- 5 to 30 hp models include Maestro XB electronic controller. The 40 hp model uses a simple Hand/Off/Auto Switch control. The 50 to 60 hp models are provided as standard with Micromat electronic controller.
