VLH – 53 High – Efficiency Marine Direct Drive Air – Cooled Compressor
Are you in search of a top – tier marine air compressor that can meet the demanding requirements of engine starting and various shipboard applications? Look no further than the VLH – 53 marine direct drive air compressor. This premium – quality compressor is specifically engineered to deliver high – performance 3.0 MPa compressed air, which is essential for the smooth operation of engine starting systems and crucial shipboard functions.
As an air – cooled, two – stage piston compressor, the VLH – 53 stands out in the market. It operates with low noise levels and boasts high efficiency, thanks to its displacement capacity ranging from 45 to 74 m³/h. This makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of marine vessels, including commercial ships, naval vessels, and offshore platforms.
Key Features and Advantages
- Direct Drive Efficiency for Enhanced Fuel Economy: The direct drive mechanism of this marine air compressor significantly reduces energy loss. This reduction in energy loss directly translates to better fuel economy, allowing you to save on operational costs in the long run.
- Air – Cooled Reliability for Simplified Maintenance: Unlike water – cooled compressors, the VLH – 53 does not rely on water for cooling. This eliminates the need for complex water – related maintenance procedures, making it a more reliable and low – maintenance option for marine environments.
- Two – Stage Compression for Consistent High – Pressure Output: The two – stage compression process ensures a consistent 3.0 MPa output, which is crucial for meeting the demanding requirements of marine applications. Whether it’s starting large engines or powering pneumatic tools, this compressor can handle it all.
- Low Noise and Vibration for Smooth Operation in Confined Spaces: Engine rooms and other confined spaces on ships can be noisy and vibrating environments. The VLH – 53 is designed to operate with low noise and vibration levels, providing a smoother and more comfortable working environment for the crew.
- Gear Pump Lubrication for Extended Equipment Lifespan: The gear pump pressure lubrication system reduces mechanical wear and tear, extending the lifespan of the compressor. This means fewer breakdowns and lower maintenance costs over the life of the equipment.
- Flexible Installation Options with Direct and Belt Drive Configurations: The VLH – 53 is available in both direct drive and belt drive configurations, giving you the flexibility to choose the installation method that best suits your specific needs and space constraints on the ship.
