The frame measures 2440 \u00d7 1016 \u00d7 1880 mm across the whole 15-55 VSD platform, so a plant planning around the ZR 55 VSD can lay out the bay on the same width and height the smaller ZT and ZR units occupy.<\/p>\n<p>Water cooling also moves the compression heat out of the room, which is the branch to check first for halls where heat rejection through fans is not welcome.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5106\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"width: 300px;\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5106\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5106 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ccompressor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Atlas-Copco-ZR-55-VSD-FF-1-300x263.webp\" alt=\"Atlas Copco ZR 55 VSD FF (1)\" width=\"300\" height=\"263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ccompressor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Atlas-Copco-ZR-55-VSD-FF-1-300x263.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.ccompressor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Atlas-Copco-ZR-55-VSD-FF-1-768x673.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.ccompressor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Atlas-Copco-ZR-55-VSD-FF-1-14x12.webp 14w, https:\/\/www.ccompressor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Atlas-Copco-ZR-55-VSD-FF-1-600x526.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.ccompressor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Atlas-Copco-ZR-55-VSD-FF-1.webp 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5106\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Atlas Copco ZR 55 VSD FF (1)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>One Class, Three Points on the ZR 55 VSD<\/h2>\n<p>Every published row of the ZR 55 VSD belongs to the 8.6 bar(e) class: Minimum at 4 bar(e), Effective at 7 bar(e), and Maximum at the rated 8.6 bar(e).
