Focusing on old and new

The company will also be using the show to announce the winners of its search for the UK’s oldest working CompAir and Hydrovane compressors. The winners will receive a weekend in London, including private dining at the City’s oldest restaurant.   

The Oldest Compressor competition was set up to celebrate the engineering heritage, reliability and durability of both CompAir and Hydrovane brands.  All entrants to the competition will be entitled to a free energy audit from an authorised CompAir or Hydrovane distributor.

Visitors to the stand will also be able to learn about the company’s advanced oil-free compressors, including eight new CompAir models. The new D Series compressors, from 75 to 160kW, can be water-cooled to extend the lifetime of the airend, and are available with regulated speed technology, meaning they always run at optimum efficiency.

Focus will also be placed on the energy saving benefits of the heat recovery solutions offered by Gardner Denver. These options can potentially recover up to 94% of the heat generated by a compressor and can use that energy elsewhere. The stand will include a video on the energy saving heat recovery system, offering visitors the opportunity to learn more about the technology.

Other products on the stand will include screw compressors from Gardner Denver, rotary vane compressors from Hydrovane, along with portable and oil-lubricated screw compressors from CompAir.  In addition, a vacuum pump from Elmo Rietschle will be on display along with a range of dryers, filters and compressor controllers.

Gardner Denver will be sponsoring the Fluid Power & Air Seminar Theatre at the show, with the company’s area sales manager, Bobby Hodge, presenting a seminar dedicated to compressor controllers, data loggers and heat recovery.
