INDUSTRIAL AIR COMPRESSORS FOR COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL FACILITIES
Industrial Air Compressors
Tritech Sales provides industrial air compressors for manufacturing, processing, agricultural, commercial, and other demanding facility applications. We represent Gardner Denver, a leading manufacturer of industrial compressed air equipment with rotary screw, oil-free, and reciprocating compressor technologies. Whether you are replacing an aging compressor, expanding plant capacity, or designing a new compressed air system, Tritech can help identify equipment based on required airflow, operating pressure, duty cycle, air quality, and system demand.
GARDNER DENVER INDUSTRIAL AIR COMPRESSORS
Gardner Denver manufactures compressed air systems for continuous-duty and intermittent industrial applications. For many plant air systems, rotary screw air compressors provide consistent compressed air for continuous operation. Gardner Denver offers both fixed-speed and variable-speed rotary screw compressors, allowing equipment to be matched to facilities with steady or fluctuating air demand. Oil-free and reciprocating compressor options are also available for applications with different air-quality, pressure, and operating requirements.

COMPRESSED AIR SYSTEM SIZING
Selecting an industrial air compressor involves more than matching motor horsepower. The compressor must provide the required CFM at the required operating pressure while accounting for demand throughout the facility. Compressor sizing can also be affected by duty cycle, pressure drop, future expansion, air leaks, storage capacity, and how often demand changes throughout the production cycle. Oversized and undersized compressors can both create operating problems. Proper sizing helps maintain reliable system pressure while reducing unnecessary energy consumption and compressor cycling.

Which Compressor Is Right?
FIXED-SPEED VS. VARIABLE-SPEED AIR COMPRESSORS
Fixed-speed compressors operate well in applications where compressed air demand remains relatively consistent. For facilities where air demand changes throughout the day, a variable-speed drive compressor can adjust compressor output to more closely match the actual demand. Gardner Denver's LRS rotary screw line uses variable-speed technology designed to match power consumption with changing air requirements. Determining which option makes sense depends on the facility's demand profile, operating hours, base load, and overall compressed air system design.
OIL-LUBRICATED AND OIL-FREE COMPRESSORS
Oil-lubricated rotary screw compressors are commonly used for general plant air because they provide dependable continuous-duty operation and consistent airflow. Certain applications require a higher level of compressed air purity. Gardner Denver also manufactures oil-free compressor systems for applications where oil contamination in the compressed air cannot be tolerated. The right compressor technology depends on how the compressed air is being used and the air-quality requirements of the process.

REPLACEMENT INDUSTRIAL AIR COMPRESSORS
An aging or improperly sized air compressor can contribute to pressure problems, excessive run time, high energy consumption, increased maintenance, and production interruptions. When replacing an industrial compressor, Tritech can help evaluate the existing equipment along with current facility requirements. Changes in production, equipment demand, operating pressure, or plant expansion may mean the best replacement is different from the original compressor. Existing compressor model information, horsepower, CFM, operating pressure, run hours, and facility air demand can all help determine the appropriate replacement.

AIR COMPRESSORS FOR NEW SYSTEMS
For new installations and plant expansions, the compressor should be selected as part of the complete compressed air system. Important factors include required CFM, operating pressure, compressor duty cycle, receiver capacity, pressure drop, air treatment requirements, controls, available utilities, and expected future demand. Evaluating these conditions early can help ensure the compressor operates efficiently and maintains reliable pressure throughout the facility.
INDUSTRIAL AIR COMPRESSOR APPLICATIONS
Gardner Denver industrial air compressors are used in manufacturing, food and beverage operations, agricultural facilities, process plants, power generation, packaging, pneumatic equipment, automation, and general plant air systems. The correct compressor depends on how much air the facility requires, how consistently it is used, and the pressure and air quality required by the process.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT INDUSTRIAL AIR COMPRESSORS
How do I size an industrial air compressor?
Air compressors are typically sized based on required airflow in CFM and operating pressure in PSI. Duty cycle, peak demand, future expansion, and pressure losses throughout the system should also be considered.
What is a rotary screw air compressor?
A rotary screw compressor uses two interlocking rotors to continuously compress air. This design is commonly used in industrial facilities that require a steady and reliable supply of compressed air.
Should I use a fixed-speed or variable-speed compressor?
Fixed-speed compressors can be a good fit for steady air demand. Variable-speed compressors are often better suited to applications where demand fluctuates because compressor output can adjust with the system requirement.
Can Tri-Tech Sales replace an existing industrial air compressor?
Yes. Tri-Tech Sales can review your existing compressor information and current system requirements to help identify an appropriate Gardner Denver replacement.
NEED AN INDUSTRIAL AIR COMPRESSOR?
Whether you need to replace an existing compressor, increase compressed air capacity, or select equipment for a new facility, Tritech Sales can help identify the appropriate Gardner Denver industrial air compressor for your application.
