Description
Senator DS15-8 Air Compressor – Fixed Speed, 15kW, 8 bar, 85 cfm
The Senator DS Series DS15-8 Air Compressor is a robust and efficient solution for various industrial applications. Designed to provide consistent and reliable compressed air, this model combines high performance with energy efficiency.
The new Senator DS Series comprises an extensive range of base-mounted air compressor sets that can reliably perform at 100% duty cycle in industrial applications. They are ideally suited for workplaces that have a steady demand for compressed air. The designs have been extensively proven throughout Asia and Europe with thousands of units already in service. Further refinement of the DS Series has taken into account the extensive feedback from Senator end users in Australia over many years. All models are exclusively equipped with German-engineered air ends to achieve the highest technological and quality standards. They are further complemented by a full suite of heavy-duty components that altogether provide you with an unbeatable price-performance choice.
Senator DS Series Features
- 8, 10 & 13 bar outlet pressure capability that satisfies the requirements of most industrial compressed air applications. 16 bar models available upon request.
- Cost-effective V-belt drive transmission facilitates a compact design and easy speed ratio changes for different pressures (models DS4 to DS45).
- Ultra reliable direct-drive transmission is virtually maintenance-free and runs precisely with negligible energy loss (models DS55 to DS90).
- Soundproofed cabinet with anti-vibration mounting of rotating components enables the compressor to be installed directly within the working environment.
- Premium efficiency IE3 class, MEPS compliant electric drive motor reduces energy consumption. Heavy-duty Class F insulation and IP55 protection.
- Star-delta motor starter reduces peak energy demand and shock-loading of the compressor’s mechanical and electrical systems.
- Inlet air filter with integrated cyclonic pre-separation characterised by high dust capacity and low pressure drop for long service life.
- Unique inlet valve design has fewer wearing parts and operates with low pressure loss and reduced noise.
- Adjustable modulating control functionality is built-in to the inlet valve for continuous flow rate regulation if desired (models DS55 to DS90).
- Oversized air-oil receiver tank designed for optimal air / oil separation and increased lubricating oil capacity.
- External spin-on (≤ DS6) or internal cartridge (≥ DS8) air-oil separator element ensures the lowest residual oil content in the discharge air.
- Fan-forced after-cooling of the discharge flow increases the efficiency of downstream compressed air treatment (models DS8 and larger).
- Thermostat-controlled, fan-forced oil cooling permits continuous operation in ambient temperatures of up to 45°C. Lift-off cabinet panels and ample internal machinery space provide unhindered access for maintenance tasks.
- Compliant with Australian Work Health and Safety Regulations for industrial workplace use.
Senator DS Series Rotary Screw End
- Oil lubricated, precision engineered and ultra reliable EU COMP air ends are a standout feature of the Senator DS Series.
- Compact V-belt drive or efficient direct gear drive design performance matched to each compressor model.
- State-of-the-art third generation rotor profile with 5:6 lobe combination delivers more air with lower energy consumption.
- Modern design with fewer components is easier to manufacture with smaller tolerances for smoother and more efficient running.
- One-piece rotor enclosure casting, Viton O-rings and a unique shaft seal combine to provide leak free operation.
- Advanced bearing arrangement ensures robust and long-lasting reliability with an ISO L10 rating life of more than 100,000 hours.
AIMS Controller
Air Intelligent Management System (AIMS) controller serves as a user-friendly interface for compressor operation, monitoring, protection and maintenance scheduling.
- Fully automatic operation after initial push-button start.
- Continuous display of operating status, pressure and temperature.
- Electrical phase reversal and abnormal current and voltage protection.
- Over pressure and under / over temperature protection.
- Scheduling and tracking of critical maintenance tasks.
- Selectable automatic restart after mains power failure.
- Selectable run time limit for maintenance enforcement.
- Remote hardwired stop / start control.
- Sequential control of up to eight interconnected DS Series compressors.
- Modbus RS-485 data communication for standalone compressors.
