VSD+ - Not just an evolution, it's a complete revolution
27 August 2014
Atlas Copco’s GA VSD+ changes the way you look at compressors. The new range brings a game-changing innovation to the general industry.

With the expansion of the range up to 37kW, Atlas Copco is now able to offer its breakthrough VSD+ technology, which provides industry-leading energy savings of 50% on average, a 13% leap in Free Air Delivery and a canopy less than half the size of traditional fixed speed compressors.
At the same time it offers improved performance, quiet operation (down to 62 dB(A)) and a compact footprint, thanks to its vertical drive train design.
The heart of the GA VSD+ is an interior permanent magnet motor, directly coupled to Atlas Copco’s best-in-class screw element: all of which have been in-house designed and have patents pending. All these benefits make the GA VSD+ the compressor of the future, setting a new standard in the industry for years to come.
