The oil-injected screw compressor STRONG with direct drive, speed control and permanent magnet motor of the Strong series is the champion among energy-efficient compressors. By using highly efficient permanent magnet motors, up to 10 percent of the energy of a compressor can be saved (compared to a speed-controlled compressor with three-phase asynchronous motor). 

There are 7 versions available with a nominal motor power between 7.5 kW and 37 kW. Since the units require little space and are extremely quiet, they can be installed almost anywhere.

 With the SCC Strong, we offer an extremely economical compressor solution that is preset to 10 bar operating pressure as standard. On request, 8 and 12 bar are available at no extra charge.

Tip: Check your compressed air requirements and, if necessary, have the compressor configured for 8 bar right away to work even more energy-efficiently. (BAFA subsidy possible, see below!)

  

The advantages of the Strong compressor are its individual features:

  • Thanks to the permanent magnet motors used, the efficiency of such a compressor is up to 10 percent higher than that of a compressor with conventional motors (three-phase asynchronous motor).
  • Due to the considerably higher energy density of the PM motor compared to the asynchronous motor, such a motor with the same power can be up to two sizes smaller. This makes it possible to make the compressor more compact overall, which means lower costs and often less space requirements for you.
  • Thanks to the special design of the permanent magnet motor, the compressor has an almost constant high energy efficiency over the entire control range of the machine, which means you permanently save energy, no matter how much compressed air the compressor supplies.
  • Our Strong compressors are not only quiet, they also deliver as much compressed air as you need.
  • Thanks to the super-intelligent control you are always in the picture about the condition of the compressor. Intuitive touch screen operation makes it easy to control the compressor.
  • Do you need the compressor data live on a control room or on your smartphone or tablet? This is no problem for the control system either. Appropriate additional software makes it possible.

Do all SCC screw compressors have a variable speed drive?

No - and that would not be customer friendly. Although variable speed compressors are considered to be the most energy efficient, this doesn't automatically make them the better choice. Instead, depending on the compressed air demand, a fixed speed compressor or a combination of non-controlled machines (for base load) and controlled models (for peak demand) may make sense.

In terms of SCC's current portfolio, the Smart and Storm series compressors are fixed speed. All other SCC compressors offer variable speed and are recommended for applications with fluctuating air requirements.

 

What type of motors drive SCC compressors?

SCC offers compressors with both IE3 asynchronous motors and IE4 permanent magnet motors. According to the efficiency classification of mains-powered three-phase motors (IE code), IE3 motors achieve the "Premium Efficiency" class. Prior to the introduction of IE4 motors, this was the highest energy efficiency class on the market. IE4 (Super Premium Efficiency) is fast becoming the new standard. These motors are even more efficient and are no longer as rare - and therefore expensive - as they were a few years ago.

 

Why are SCC compressors so quiet?

Compared to low-cost suppliers from Asia, quality manufacturers such as Germany's SCC pay attention to workmanship and small details. For example, to reduce noise levels, SCC compressors have effective insulation on the doors and a casing made from slightly thicker sheet metal.

 

What is there to know about the control of SCC air compressors?

The control of a compressor is to match the production of compressed air to the actual consumption of compressed air. At SCC, all compressors are fitted with the same advanced control system as standard. Operation is intuitive via a colour touch screen. The special feature is that up to 16 units can be connected and controlled in coordination with each other. This allows for particularly efficient energy consumption.

Software for real-time condition monitoring and machine data transfer to mobile devices is also available.

 

What does it mean to see the abbreviations P, G or AD 2000 on a compressed air tank?

The letters P and G are used to distinguish between painted (painted=p) and galvanised (galvanised=g) tanks. If there is no specific indication, the container is a painted standard container.

AD 2000 is the name of a set of technical regulations developed by the German "Arbeitsgemeinschaft Druckbehälter" under the auspices of the TÜV. The regulations for pressure vessel construction published in it are based on the safety and conformity criteria of the European Pressure Equipment Directive and take these further. It should be noted that the high requirements of the AD 2000 leaflets go beyond the minimum specifications of the international CE mark. With its containers in accordance with AD 2000, SCC thus offers products that meet a special safety requirement and underline the quality feature "Made in Germany". Companies that decide to purchase such a higher-quality tank benefit, among other things, from longer maintenance intervals and the resulting better plant availability.

 

What is the meaning of the TD code that can be selected as a variant on some SCC compressors?

The abbreviation TD stands for "Tank" and "Dryer". SCC's TD compressors are therefore 3-in-1 solutions consisting of a compressor, refrigerant dryer and matching compressed air tank. With these practical complete packages we can simplify and speed up the selection and ordering process for our customers. As plug and play solutions, the TD models also make it easier to commission the air system on site.

 

What air filters are supplied with the TD models?

All TD compressors automatically come with built-in pre and after filters. As the customer, you decide on the type of filter element. We are happy to advise you!

 

Why are some AQUARIUS sizes available with an integrated dryer and others without?

The difference in equipment is quite simply due to historical reasons. Aquarius models 31-46 were the first units in the range and were designed with a dryer as standard. It has to be taken into account that the space requirement increases when a dryer is integrated. Experience from discussions with customers has shown that many users prefer compact models. This is because smaller dimensions give them more freedom in choosing a location. Another factor is that companies often already have filter lines to which the Aquarius compressor can be connected. The following models have therefore been designed without a dryer.

 

Which SCC compressors meet the BAFA criteria and are therefore eligible for a grant?

At present, the SMART and FOCUS series of rotary screw compressors are eligible for an investment grant. However, as both the technical specifications of the compressors and the test criteria may change from time to time, we recommend that you contact our technical sales department. They will be able to advise you on which model not only meets the current BAFA requirements, but is also the best choice for your process.

 

Is there a heat recovery option for SCC compressors?

Yes, a complete heat recovery kit is available, specifically designed for use with SCC compressors. This option is particularly worthwhile for units of 22 kW and above. The ready-to-install heat recovery kit is integrated directly into the compressor to save space. Prices and further information available on request.
