To provide you with top-quality, 100% oil-free air, our ZR/ZT series incorporate a range of advanced technologies. The unique rotary tooth element increases efficiency thanks to two-stage compression. As no venting of the pressure element is required, the energy consumption is considerably lower compared to single stage compression systems. With its symmetrical and dynamically balanced design, the double tooth element ensures an increased free air delivery and delivers consistent performance over time.

Rotors Stainless steel symmetrical rotors ensure perfect dynamic balancing and minimum bearing load to guarantee a long life span.Axial in- and outlet port The straight rotor design and the opposing axial in- and outlet port avoid axial load on element components, increasing element lifetime.Air-cooled design Cast teeth allow for efficient heat dissipation, eliminating the need for a complex cooling water system and ensuring greater reliability.Seals Two independent floating oil and air seals, separated by a neutral buffer area, safeguard the compression chamber from oil penetration. |

| Atmospheric air is drawn through the inlet port into the compressor chamber as a result of the rotational action of the tooth rotors. | Air is trapped between the teeth of the male and female rotors. | Compression takes place. The male and female rotor turn towards each other, decreasing the free space, resulting in an increase in pressure. | The female rotor exposes the outlet port and the compressed air is delivered to the system. |
Untreated compressed air contains moisture and dust particles, which can damage your air system and contaminate your end product. The resulting maintenance costs can far exceed the cost of compressed air treatment. Atlas Copco believes this problem is preventable and offers a complete range of air treatment solutions to protect your investment, equipment, production processes, and end products.
