Advanced Energy-Saving Technology
The NOBEL-E PM range features IE5 Ultra Premium Efficiency Permanent Magnet motors, variable-speed drive technology and Power System’s latest generation screw air-ends. By matching compressor output to actual air demand, these machines can significantly reduce energy waste and operating costs compared to conventional fixed-speed compressors. According to Power System, energy savings of up to 50% can be achieved in suitable applications, helping businesses reduce both running costs and carbon emissions.
The compressors also feature direct-drive transmission systems, advanced cooling technology and intelligent electronic controls that optimise performance while reducing maintenance requirements. Low sound levels make them suitable for installation closer to the point of use, while improved accessibility simplifies routine servicing.
