 ENERGY SAVINGS: A GOOD IDEA
FOR YOUR BOTTOM LINE AND FOR
THE ENVIRONMENT.
Nearly 90% of a compressor’s life cycle costs go to energy use*. This poses a vast challenge,
especially where ecological demands and global competition require the full mobilisation of
a company’s potential. Offering energy savings of up to 15%, AERZEN is up to the challenge;
depending on the volume flows and pressures involved, the investment will pay for itself after
only two years. The Delta Hybrid.

Two profiles, one assembly. blower profile, designed for lower pressure differentials
The Delta Hybrid is a perfect synthesis of positive up to 800 mbar, plus a 3+4 compressor profile,
displacement blower and screw compressor technology. designed for higher pressures up to 1,500 mbar. The result

Energy efficiency in detail: • Acoustic hood ventilator with electric motor

• Improved control range between 25% and 100% • Special silencer insulation allows for lower acoustic
• Patented intake cone to reduce pressure loss hood temperatures and higher compressor efficiency
• Optimised airflow in the acoustic hood allows for the (for use at pressures > 1,000 mbar and in exceptional

• Improved fluid dynamics in the intake and outlet • Premium Efficiency/IE3 motors

• Patented muffler that reduces pressure losses with no (summer/winter operation) or pressure variations
absorption materials whatsoever • Belt-driven for precise volume flow determination

Simply smarter.
The belt-drive design of the Delta Hybrid has an important advantage: precision configuration. The greatest savings
are found in the energy that isn't used. A deviation of 5% in the volume flow, for example, means an increase in energy
consumption of 5%!

 EXTENDING THE FUNCTIONAL
RANGE FOR A WIDE VARIETY OF
APPLICATIONS.
The Delta Hybrid is used within a wide range of key industrial applications. These assemblies are
designed for the oil-free conveyance of air and neutral gases. For use with positive and negative
pressure in nominal widths ranging from DN 100 to DN 300.

Extended pressure ranges. Greater opportunities. Higher temperatures, greater safety.

These versatile assemblies expand the application range Delta Hybrid rotary lobe compressors can be used anywhere
to pressures of up to 1,500 mbar (Model H). The range can — even in areas with extremely high ambient temperatures,
be expanded into negative pressure areas as well, from the or for application with extremely high intake temperatures.

machines. Note: because the design of conventional positive processes.
displacement blowers limits them to a maximum pressure
differential of 1,000 mbar, other types of compressors were
previously required for higher pressure ranges. They were,
however, often designed for markedly higher pressures,

 DECADES OF EXPERIENCE
DISTILLED INTO A SINGLE PHRASE:
MADE BY AERZEN.
A high degree of operational safety and an extended compressor service life set the foundation for
AERZEN’s global reputation today. And make no mistake: these criteria apply to our latest Delta
Hybrid series as well. Field-tested extensively in development and with years of daily use to back it up,
the Delta Hybrid is synonymous with the quality that customers have come to expect from AERZEN.

No absorption material to interrupt operation.

Absorption materials cause wear and are a hazard to
operational safety. To solve this, AERZEN R&D came up with
a special patented solution: a discharge muffler completely
free of absorption material. It decreases noise purely by
rerouting air flow, guaranteeing that downstream process
systems won’t be contaminated. In sewage treatment
technology, this avoids clogs in the aeration system, and with
them operational constraints and high maintenance costs. In
the pneumatic conveyance of bulk materials, it also means
that it is safe to use with foodstuffs.

Patented Delta Hybrid bearings

Extended operational lifespans. seals for the motor and conveying chamber to minimise wear.
Long service life begins with carefully selected materials and Our patented AERZEN bearings provide another example. Even
quality workmanship. But it is also the result of extensive at pressure differentials of 1,000 mbar, they have an increased
development work. For the Delta Hybrid, it also means special nominal lifespan of more than 60,000 hours Lh10.

INTELLIGENT CONTROL FOR
FAST PROCESSES.
Easy to use. Intelligent features. Designed to provide you with the assurance that your facilities
will always operate optimally, depending on system pressures and other parameters — during
vacuum operation as well, of course. After all, that’s why AERZEN designed it in the first place.
We’re talking about AERtronic, the advanced assembly control system from AERZEN.

Focused on operating conditions.

AERtronic's functionalities provide you with a broad range
of possibilities for the control, safety, and maintenance
of your Delta Hybrid packages. It displays operational
data, manages the operating hours counter, provides early
notifications of operational events, and stores all this
information in its memory. This means that you can check on
where in the process the assembly was at any particular time,
making it ideal for targeted corrective responses.

Efficient planning.
How long are service intervals? When is the next maintenance
session due? AERtronic will keep you informed about these
important cycles. There are two key advantages to this:
maintenance can be planned more efficiently, and the lifespan
of your machine’s components can be increased significantly.
