Quantima Compressors
Unique new technology from CompAir


Quantima Compressors

Innovative compressed air manufacturer, CompAir has rewritten the rules of compressed air generation by launching Quantima, a unique and dynamic oil-free compressor technology.

Having only one moving part spinning in a magnetic field, Quantima’s revolutionary Q-drive compression assembly forms the heart of the new compressor design. Its unique rotor and direct-driven compression elements are levitated by active electromagnetic bearings to allow them to reach speeds of up to 60,000 rpm.

CompAir has a long-standing reputation for leading product innovation and this latest advance sets the benchmark for oil-free air compression, delivering a compelling range of customer benefits to help drive down production costs, dramatically reduce energy consumption and improve environmental performance. This results in a much quieter and more compact, variable-speed product that has no gearbox, no oil, and is engineered to deliver industry-leading reliability.

CompAir engineers have considered Quantima’s energy performance at every stage of the design, delivering a compressor range that has the lowest off-load power consumption of any compressor on the market at just 2.5% of full load power, equating to only 7Kw for a typical 300kW unit.

This high energy efficiency means that customers replacing an existing compressor with a new Quantima unit can make energy savings of up to 25%, reducing overall running costs dramatically. In addition, a user’s environmental credentials are improved significantly with the potential to cut annual carbondioxide emissions by the same amount as taking 75 family cars off the road or planting 16,000 trees*.

CompAir is a world-leading global manufacturer of compressed air and gas solutions providing quality, reliable, highly efficient compressors for a broad range of applications, including general industry, offshore, oil-free, construction and CNG refuelling.

With an extensive network of dedicated sales companies and distributors across six continents, CompAir offers global expertise with a truly local service capability.
