Atlas Copco G110-250 & G160 VSD Oil-Injected Rotary Screw Compressor

Heavy-duty compressed air for cement, mining, power, and general industry

The Atlas Copco G110-250 and G160 VSD are heavy-duty oil-injected rotary screw compressors designed for demanding industrial environments. They cover a power range of 110-250 kW (150-340 hp) and deliver up to 681 l/s (40.9 m3/min) of free air delivery at noise levels as low as 78 dB(A).

These compressors are built for continuous operation in cement plants, mining sites, power stations, and general industrial facilities. Integrated oil and water separation systems, heavy-duty oil filters, and TEFC IP55 Class F motors ensure reliable performance even in dusty and harsh environments.

The G160 VSD variant uses Variable Speed Drive technology to save an average of 35% energy and maintain stable net pressure within 0.10 bar. The VSD eliminates peak current
during startup and reduces system leakage through lower operating pressure.

Control is handled by the Elektronikon controller with high-resolution color display, real-time monitoring, Ethernet connectivity, and support for 31 languages. The package includes internal piping, coolers, motor, all air and oil circuits, and vibration dampers on a structural skid with silenced canopy.
