The new PBE1600 VSD+

Cost-effective performance, sustainable, no emissions, small footprint, low noise levels, refinery spec, and plug-and-play. These are just a handful of the PBE1600 VSD+’s benefits. It might be smaller than its diesel-driven counterparts, however, it can handle the (high) pressure and give the boost you need.

Let’s talk numbers

Zeroes, hundreds, and many more. Let’s start with zero. The PBE 1600 VSD+ is ISO 8573-1 CLASS 0 (2010) certified. This means that the Air, Argon, Nitrogen, or CO2 you want to boost meets the highest standards and is compliant with the strictest regulations. Only with Class-0 oil-free air can you be 100% sure.

Harmful emissions are also reduced to zero. Electric-driven solutions like the PBE 1600 VSD+ help further reduce harmful emissions, and equipment like this is ideal when you have ambitious sustainability goals.

A booster boosts. That makes noise. There isn’t much we can do about that. However, we did manage to reduce it to 99dB(A) when it’s running at full power.

Speaking of full power, our new electric-driven booster is capable of boost Air, Nitrogen, or CO2 up to 25 bar (360 psi) and reach a maximum flow of 3200m³/h (1900 cfm). Here are the exact numbers:

Numbers none of us really likes to talk about is our weight and size. Unless it’s a good thing. The PBE1600 VSD+ comes in at approximately 4000kg and is 4020 x 1390 x 2310 (LxWxH). Its small footprint makes it easy to maneuver around the site, yet sturdy enough to take on some of the harsh conditions our Rental equipment is built to endure.

The driving force

For the right application, the benefits of going electric cannot be overstated: from improved noise levels to no diesel engine emissions; and from improved efficiency to simpler service. Why should you not go electric? As long as you have an electric power source on your site, the electric compressor will always be the most efficient solution. To cut your energy costs, Atlas Copco pioneered Variable Speed Drive (VSD) technology in the compressed air industry. VSD leads to major energy-savings while protecting the environment for future generations. Thanks to continual investments in this technology, Atlas Copco offers the widest range of integrated VSD compressors on the market. The compressors closely follow the air demand by automatically adjusting the motor speed. This results in significant energy savings of up to 35%.
