As mentioned, turbo compressors, which are called Turbokompressor in German, are basically a type of industrial equipment that is made of two main parts, including an air compressor and a gas turbine. The gas turbine and the compressor are mounted on a shaft or connected to each other by a gearbox.
What are the advantages of using turbo compressors?
Turbo compressors, like all types of air compressors, can have different applications and capabilities and have unique features. In fact, this type of air compressor has many advantages compared to other types of compressors, the most important of which include the following: These compressors have little noise pollution and can be used in all kinds of industrial and non-industrial environments. These compressors usually use HFC refrigerants, which can be highly compatible with the environment and do not cause any damage to it. These compressors can be very efficient and effective. These compressors have high efficiency in heat transfer and can perform very well without oil. 🔰 These compressors have little complexity and in case of damage, repairing them will be a simple task. 🔰 Setting up these compressors is a simple task and does not require special skills and expertise.
Why are turbo compressors better than piston compressors?
Although piston compressors are used in various industries today, these compressors can have various disadvantages, the most important of which include relatively high noise, low efficiency and effectiveness, high maintenance costs, occupying a lot of space and high weight, sensitivity to The entry of liquids, lubrication-splashing, relatively high vibration during work, etc. The use of turbo compressors instead of piston compressors can have several reasons, the most important of which are as follows: Turbo compressors have better balance and sealing due to the absence of variable energy force. There are no valves in turbo compressors and this eliminates the resistance in them. In this type of compressor, the risk of possible hydraulic shocks has been eliminated. Compared to piston compressors, turbo compressors have smaller dimensions and lower weight, while they also have more power and are easier to use. In the turbo compressor, there is no need for internal lubrication, and for this reason, there is no possibility of oil leaking into the parts, etc.
