Rallye - RA-070 Screw Compressor

Applications & Use Cases

• Providing compressed air for general workshop tools and pneumatic machinery.
• Supplying air for industrial processes such as packaging, spraying, and material handling.
• Used in manufacturing facilities for assembly lines and automation systems.
• Suitable for automotive workshops and tyre fitting centres requiring consistent air supply.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

For a 37kW screw compressor, typical free air delivery (FAD) ranges from approximately 5.5 to 7.0 m³/min (195 to 250 CFM) at standard operating pressures.

Power supply

Units of this power rating commonly require a 400V, 3-phase, 50Hz electrical supply, typical for industrial applications in the UK.

Operating pressure

Screw compressors in this class typically operate at pressures between 7 and 10 bar (100-145 psi), suitable for most industrial air tools and processes.

Footprint

The physical footprint for a 37kW screw compressor can vary, but typically requires a floor space of around 1.5m x 1.0m, plus clearance for maintenance.

Noise level

Modern screw compressors are designed for lower noise, with units of this type typically producing between 68 and 75 dB(A), often requiring placement in a dedicated compressor room.

Cooling method

Most industrial screw compressors are air-cooled, though larger or more intensive applications may feature water-cooled options.
