ELGi Electric Portable Screw Compressors to deliver Energy Efficiency

ELGi’s PG Series Electric Portable Screw Compressors deliver maximum energy efficiency and performance while setting a new benchmark in eco-friendly, portable compressed air solutions. Compressed air solutions are important for the construction, mining, oil, and gas industries.

The PG Series Electric Portable Screw Compressor (126-550 CFM, 102-232 psi(g)) is for environmentally conscious customers. Designed for industries where clean energy, reduced emissions, and operational efficiency are top priorities, these compressors combine advanced technology with a compact footprint. Compressed air is a critical utility in the construction, mining, and oil and gas sectors. Drilling presents both technical and commercial challenges, demanding solutions that deliver speed, reliability, and efficiency.

ELGi’s PG Series addresses these needs across a wide range of applications, including DTH drilling, oil and gas exploration, tunneling, pigging, sandblasting, quarrying, piling, laying of fiber cables, and road and bridge construction. The air compressors are ideal for work environments where electricity is readily available and for work environments that require quiet and emission-free conditions. The compressor has an electric system powered by a three-phase TEFC squirrel cage motor with ‘F’ class insulation.

Advantages

The ELGi PG Series Electric Portable Screw Compressors offer a range of key advantages that make them highly efficient and reliable in demanding environments.

Designed with η-V rotor profiles, these compressors deliver maximum energy efficiency, helping to reduce operational energy costs. Built for durability, the canopy is constructed from powder-coated, industrial-grade steel. The innovative cool-box design ensures that cool air circulates over internal components even during closed-door operations. This helps maintain lower internal temperatures and extends the life of critical parts.

Their compact structure allows for excellent maneuverability, making them easy to operate in tight or confined spaces. Additionally, the compressors are well-suited for use in dusty conditions because of a robust two-stage filtration system that effectively prevents dust from entering the compressor and engine, thereby enhancing their operational lifespan.

These compressors are best suited for standard pressure applications, including powering breakers and tools in marble, granite, and blue metal quarries, and more specialised applications such as sandblasting, pigging, drilling, and optical fiber blowing, as they are engineered for high uptime and easy maneuverability. The user-friendly controls and robust design ensure both operator comfort and lasting performance.
