Description
Senator TSV8-8 7.5kW 8 Bar 36 cfm Variable Speed Tank Mounted Rotary Screw Air Compressor, 300L
The Senator TSV8-8 is a 7.5kW (10 hp) tank-mounted variable speed drive (VSD) rotary screw air compressor set to a working pressure of 8 bar (116 psi), delivering 0.41-1.02 m³/min (14-36 cfm) of free air. It is a dependable, cost-effective source of compressed air for automotive workshops, panel and paint shops, tyre centres, small fabrication shops and light manufacturing.
The Senator TSV Series combines a variable speed rotary screw compressor and an oversized air receiver in one compact, ready-to-run package. The VSD adjusts output to match your air use, so it can use up to 30% less electricity than a comparable fixed speed compressor and pays for itself many times over.
The standard 8 bar setting suits the vast majority of air tools and plant-air systems while keeping energy use low.
Key Features
- Variable speed drive (VSD) can use up to 30% less electricity than a fixed speed compressor
- Turn-key package: VSD rotary screw compressor mounted on an oversized air receiver
- Large air tank smooths out pressure fluctuations and improves condensate removal
- Oil-lubricated EU COMP rotary screw air end with a third-generation 5:6 rotor profile
- Fan-forced oil cooling allows continuous running in ambient temperatures up to 45°C
- AIMS controller with full status display, protection and maintenance scheduling
- Soundproofed cabinet with anti-vibration mounts for installation at the work site
- May be eligible for government energy efficiency grants
Lower Running Costs
Electricity makes up around 75% of the lifetime cost of an electric screw compressor. Because the TSV8-8 only runs as fast as your air demand requires, it avoids the wasted energy of a fixed speed machine running unloaded. Savings of 15 to 30% are typical, so the extra upfront cost is usually recovered in electricity savings, and VSD models like this one may be eligible for government energy efficiency grants.
