Atlas Copco ZR160 VSD Air Compressor
PRODUCT PARAMETERS
Description
The Atlas Copco ZR 160 VSD+ is an oil-free rotary screw air compressor designed to provide stable compressed air for industrial processes that require high air purity and reliable operation. As part of the ZR oil-free compressor range, the unit is engineered to deliver continuous performance while meeting strict operational and environmental requirements.
One of the key advantages of the ZR 160 VSD+ is its oil-free compression technology. The compressor is designed to deliver compressed air without oil contamination in the compression chamber, which is particularly important in industries such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, electronics manufacturing, and chemical production. By eliminating the risk of oil carryover, the system helps protect downstream equipment and product quality.
The compressor operates with a working pressure range between 9 bar and 13 bar, and a free air delivery (FAD) capacity ranging from approximately 4.54 to 23.75 m³/min (160.2–838.8 cfm) depending on operating conditions. This wide capacity range allows the unit to adapt to different process demands while maintaining efficient performance.
Another important feature is the integrated Variable Speed Drive (VSD+) technology, which adjusts the motor speed according to air demand. This design helps reduce unnecessary energy consumption during partial load operation and improves overall system efficiency compared with fixed-speed compressors operating under fluctuating demand.
The compressor is equipped with a 160 kW (215 HP) motor, providing sufficient power for medium-to-large industrial air systems. Despite its performance capacity, the unit maintains a relatively low noise level of around 72 dB(A), allowing installation closer to the production area if required.
With a package weight of approximately 2500 kg, the compressor is built with a robust structure suitable for continuous industrial operation. Overall, the ZR 160 VSD+ combines oil-free air delivery, adaptive capacity control, and reliable mechanical design, making it a practical solution for facilities requiring consistent and clean compressed air supply.
