When high air purity is a high priority
Theres a lot riding on the quality of your air. The
presence of particles, condensation, oil, and oil vapor in a
compressed air system can lead to downtime, product
spoilage and recall, damage to your brand reputation, or
worse, harmed consumers and product liability.
No matter what industry or critical application,
you can count on Ingersoll Rand to offer solutions
that mitigate risk and ensure delivery of the
highest air purity possible.
Chemical
Whether manufacturing
cleaning solutions, base
stock pharmaceuticals, or
anything in between, the
compressed air quality
must be of the highest
purity to minimize risk of
production interruption
or higher cost liability.
Pharmaceutical
The highly regulated
pharmaceutical industry
requires 100% total quality
built into manufacturing
processes. Compressed air
quality must be validated
as part of GMP.
Utilities
Compressed air quality
is too important to risk,
so when specifying
instrument air for
utilities, most
engineers request
oil-free compressors.
Electronics
High air quality
is critical in this
industry you
cant afford
downtime or
product spoilage
with wet or oily
compressed air.
Food and Beverage
Oil-free compressors
that deliver no oil into the
air stream and minimize
microbial content through
high-temperature
compression reduce
contamination risk for
food and beverage
manufacturers.
Textile
High-tech air jet looms
require super-clean, dry,
100% oil-free compressed
air, which is why Ingersoll
Rand has been a critical
supplier to this industry
for many years.
Oil-free, risk-free
How pure is your air? One of the keys to ensuring you achieve and
maintain acceptable air quality for your critical application is to know
industry air quality standards and their allowable levels of contaminants.
The lower the particular class rating, the purer the air should be.
ISO 8573-1:2001 Class 0 specifies air quality standards for critical
manufacturing processes within the food and beverage, pharmaceutical,
textile, and electronics industries. It is the most stringent class, covering
oil contamination in aerosol, vapor, and liquid forms.
Some compressor manufacturers have
marketed their units as being essentially
oil-free, but this isnt necessarily the case. If
you need guaranteed pure air for your critical
application, then you need Ingersoll Rand.

speed compressors, only Nirvana
enables you to reach the full
potential of variable-speed
technology. With a Nirvana
system, you get ultra-reliability
and efficiency, virtually
maintenance-free operation,
unlimited starts and stops, and
peace of mind knowing your
air is 100% pure.

to conventional, random-wound induction motors.
These hot spots can cause insulation and motor failure.
Proven airends
Our rotary-screw airends deliver full potential through
unparalleled rotor profile accuracy and repeatability.
Stainless-steel rotors are used in the demanding second
stage for maximum corrosion resistance. UltraCoat surface
coating is also applied to the rotors and all housing
surfaces for unmatched durability and performance.
Achieve a higher plane of performance
A revolutionary motor coupled
with advanced controls and proven
compressor technologies
Simpler and more reliable
The Nirvana HPMmotor has fewer moving parts, and
flanges directly onto the compressor drive shaft, making
the motor more reliable and 100% maintenance-free. Its
bearing-free design eliminates the need for greasing or
replacing motor bearings. The HPMmotor is also designed to
operate continuously in temperatures up to 115 F (46 C).
Limitless starts and stops
Nirvana is designed to start and stop limitlessly to meet
your compressed air demands while never going above
full-load amps. HPMmotor technology also has unmatched
efficiency throughout the turn-down range, providing
savings no matter what your demand profile requires.
No wasted energy
The Nirvana HPMmotor requires less power at start-up,
never operates at more than full-load amps, and shuts down
immediately at minimum speed to avoid wasted energy.
Nirvana ensures constant pressure throughout the entire
operating range. At start-up, induction motors require a
power surge of up to twice full-load current in order to
overcome initial inertia. They also run unloaded when
demand is below minimum, reducing efficiency and
driving up energy costs.

Compressor rotors take a beating. Over time their surfaces can
deteriorate, making rotors increasingly susceptible to compressed
air impurities and temperature fluctuation, which lead to reduced
efficiency, decreased air purity, and compressor failure.
Ingersoll Rand eliminates this problem with UltraCoat,
an advanced rotor and housing protection process that
ensures the most durable coating, with unmatched
adhesion and temperature resistance.
Every Ingersoll Rand oil-free rotor and housing is specially
prepared, creating a surface texture to which the UltraCoat
micro-coating bonds with the tightest, longest-lasting
grip possible.
We also use stainless-steel and aluminum piping to link the
compressors intercooler with the stainless-steel second stage
rotors. This way, condensation during the cooling process wont
cause corrosion or rust, further extending the life of the UltraCoat
coating and rotors.
Ultimately, UltraCoat delivers greater reliability in performance
and air quality, rotor longevity, increased uptime, and reduced
energy costs.

If you have a multiple-compressor installation, then you probably
know that maintaining optimum average pressure along the entire
line can be challenging, inefficient, and costly. Load / unload
pressures are commonly offset to keep the compressors from
starting at the same time, but doing so limits the systems ability to
meet demand, and basic control settings can drift over time. This
causes wide pressure swings that result in off-quality product,
wasted energy, and shortened compressor life.
Ingersoll Rand advanced controllers when coupled with our
extensive system audit services enable you to optimize air
efficiency, deliver consistent flow and pressure, and extend the life
of system components. Ultimately, youll stabilize your pressure
and reduce energy costs.
Intelliflow

Air System
Pressure Controller
Intelliflow provides precise air pressure control of production
processes by separating supply-side air from demand-side air.
As a result, supply-side air is not affected by incidents on the
demand side. Intelliflow can lower demand pressure precisely
saving lost energy costs and better ensuring consistent
product quality.
Advanced controls
Intellisys Energy Optimizer
When incorporated into a Nirvana VSD-enhanced,
fixed-speed compressed air system, the IEO
provides the utmost in energy savings. The
controller designates the Nirvana as a trimming
or lead compressor. If only one compressor is
needed to satisfy demand, the more efficient
Nirvana will run. When demand exceeds the
capacity of the Nirvana, one or more of the fixed-
speed compressors will start at full capacity and
the Nirvana trims back in output to precisely and
efficiently satisfy demand in excess of the fixed-
speed capacity. As demand drops, the IEO turns
off the fixed-speed units, leaving the Nirvana
to run by itself again.
Enhance reliability
Control up to eight rotary-screw or reciprocating
compressors from any manufacturer, and
continuously monitor air system quality.
Save energy
Overcome the problems associated with compressor
trains and reduce the control pressure band.
Increase productivity
Automate compressor control and optimize
compressor scheduling to meet varying
plant demand.
Symptomdiagnosisprescription
Ingersoll Rand can improve the health of your air system
A doctor wouldnt write a prescription without first making a diagnosis.
Similarly, in terms of compressed air, fixing a troublesome system
without first diagnosing the true problem is a hit or miss proposition
based on guesswork. This can lead to production stoppages, extended
downtime, and even product spoilage. Ingersoll Rand eliminates the
guesswork by providing proven air system auditing services that
not only ensure air system efficiency, but reduce operating
costs to improve
bottom lines.
Using an innovative
tool known as
Intellisurvey
we non-intrusively
monitor a compressed air system
to determine the root causes of
symptoms. With Intellisurvey, our
experts analyze the many components of an air system, as well
as flow, pressure, supply utilization, and power costs, to determine
an optimized system that generates improvements in repeatability,
efficiency, and plant productivity.
