Rotary screw compressors with belt drive

Compact design with impressive performance

Kaeser rotary screw compressors with V-belt drive provide outstanding efficiency and reliability. an energy-saving SIGMA PROFILE airend and a SIGMA CONTROL 2 controller to ensure outstanding efficiency and performance. You can choose from four series with these technical parameters:

  • Pressure: 8, 11 or 15 bar
  • Flow rate: 0.26 – 4.65 m³/min

All series are available as standard models but also with

  • Add-on refrigeration dryer for high compressed air quality and/or
  • Speed-controlled motor for a large flow rate control range. (SM, SK and ASK series)

We will gladly tell you which model is the perfect solution for you.

Your advantages

  • Highly-efficient power transmission:
    The quality drive belt with automatic tensioning device ensures consistent transmission efficiency and excellent drive system reliability over the entire service life.
  • Easy maintenance:
    The housing is easily opened. All components are logically arranged and easy to access. Maintenance work is therefore made quick and simple.
  • Exceptionally quiet:
    The soundproofed housing reduces operational noise to a minimum. Normal conversation can take place right next to the compressor.
Profitable thanks to low life-cycle costs
