DEPENDABLE COMPRESSED AIR DELIVERY
This giant portable compressor can be used in industrial applications requiring large volumes of compressed air, especially when it is needed to bridge maintenance outages or when a plant is being upgraded. Other potential applications include tunnel construction and pipeline flushing in refineries.
OPTIMUM EFFICIENCY ALL THE TIME
At the heart of the M500-2, which is specifically designed for industrial applications, is a proven two-stage dry running rotary screw compressor. Thanks to an innovative special coating that withstands temperatures up to 300° C, the machine's sandblasted, phosphated rotors show no signs of wear, even after many years of operation. This translates to consistent high energy efficiency and no increase in fuel consumption over the operating life of the machine. A large capacity fuel tank enables back-to-back operation over two shifts without the need to refuel. Continuous operation is also possible via an optional external fuel tank. The reliable on-board Caterpillar low-emission diesel engine has an integrated particle filter. The type C 18 engine is rated at 447.5 kW.
INTUITIVE USER INTERFACE WITH "SIGMA CONTROL" MOBILE CONTROLLER
The integrated Sigma Control mobile controller automatically adjusts the motor speed to the exact pressure set-point between 58 and 150 psi. Compressed air discharge temperature can also be selected via the controller. The M500-2 comes with a spark arrestor and motor shutoff valve for installation in refineries and is mounted on a supporting chassis with parking brake so that it can be quickly and safely positioned anywhere. It also features crane and lashing eyes, as well as forklift pockets. This giant unit, which weighs in at just less than twelve tonnes, can therefore be precisely placed exactly where needed; the parking brake on the chassis also ensures that it stays put.
AUTOMATIC REMOTE MONITORING
In the unlikely event of a fault, the integrated Mobilair fleet management system automatically notifies Kaeser Service. Everything is accessible online.
