Sabroe SMC 100 Compressor

• Industrial refrigeration systems for cold storage and food processing.
• Chemical and pharmaceutical process cooling.
• Air conditioning systems for large commercial and industrial buildings.
• Marine refrigeration applications.

Compressor Type

Typically a reciprocating or screw compressor, depending on the specific Sabroe SMC 100 variant.

Typical Capacity

For this class of equipment, cooling capacities can vary significantly, often in the range of tens to hundreds of kW, depending on refrigerant and operating conditions. Buyers should contact the seller for exact unit specifications.

Refrigerant Compatibility

Commonly designed for various industrial refrigerants, including ammonia (R717) or HFCs. Specific compatibility should be confirmed with the seller.

Power Supply

Typically requires a three-phase industrial power supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz in the UK, with appropriate motor ratings for the compressor size.

Footprint

Units of this type are industrial-scale and require dedicated plant room space. Dimensions vary, but buyers should anticipate a significant footprint for the compressor block and associated components.

Control System

Modern units often feature PLC-based control systems for efficient operation and monitoring. Older units may have more electromechanical controls.

• What is the typical lifespan of a used Sabroe SMC 100 compressor?

  With proper maintenance, Sabroe compressors are known for their robust construction and long operational life. The actual lifespan of a used unit depends heavily on its service history and previous operating conditions.

• Are spare parts readily available for Sabroe SMC 100 models?

• What kind of installation considerations are there for this compressor?

• What maintenance is typically required for a Sabroe SMC 100 compressor?

• Can this compressor be adapted for different refrigerants?

Used air compressors for lab and pharma applications are generally valued for reliability and cost savings. Buyers typically prioritize checking maintenance history, confirming pressure ratings meet specific requirements, and verifying oil-free operation where contamination control matters. Key strengths include durability when properly serviced, consistent performance across extended operational hours, and significant capital cost reduction compared to new units. Inspecting seals, checking for corrosion, and confirming recent servicing records are standard considerations when purchasing secondhand.
