ELGi Compressors USA has introduced the EQ Series, a new range of oil-lubricated, direct drive rotary screw air compressors, designed to provide superior performance and reliability to small and medium-sized operations that traditionally use belt-driven air compressors.

In line with ELGi’s customer-centric approach, the EQ ‘ELGi Quest’ Series is built for customers requiring reliable compressed air at improved flows at the right value. The EQ Series oil-lubricated, direct drive rotary screw air compressor is available from 25 to 30 hp with both fixed and variable speed drive configurations.
The new EQ Series of Oil-Lubricated Direct-Drive Screw Compressors:

  • Designed as an oil-lubricated direct-driven air compressor available in multiple capacities from 25-30 hp
  • Available with fixed or variable-speed drives for all units in the series
  • Equipped with a reliable TEFC motor
  • Available in 100, 125, 150, and 175 psi discharge pressures
  • Designed for operating in ambient temperatures of 122 degrees F, ensuring superior cooling, reliability, and durability
  • Equipped with pre-filter enclosure cooling air inlets
  • Long service interval of 4000 hours (intake filter, oil, oil filter, air/oil separator element)
  • Best in class warranty: six years on airend, five years on other main components, three years on VFD, and one year on entire package
  • Available as base-mounted, tank-mounted (120 or 200 gallons), or tank-mounted with dryer and filters for an easy-to-install complete air system

“Our new EQ line of compressors is perfect for small and medium-sized operations that require a high degree of reliability for their equipment,” said Robert Horneman, Product Manager, ELGi USA. “ELGi has always been known for leading the market from a reliability and warranty standpoint, and the EQ compressors are no different. The direct-driven airend provides years of trouble-free service, and the optional variable speed drive delivers superior energy savings for applications with variable demand. Team that up with one of the country’s most extensive service networks and our 48-hour uptime guarantee, and you have little risk of your operation shutting down due to compressed air failures.”
