NUAIR ORION - Direct Drive Rotary Screw Compressors
ORION is an oil-lubricated coaxial rotary screw compressor with direct starter, designed to be reliable, compact, and silent. As the smallest unit in the NUAIR screw range, the compact air-end/motor connection system keeps the footprint extremely small. With a low sound level of only 65 dB(A), ORION can be installed close to operating areas. ORION is available as a base mounted version or tank mounted on a 23 Gallons tank.
Key Features
- Direct drive coaxial transmission (air-end directly connected to the electric motor)
- Designed for continuous operation in industrial applications
- FS14 air-end for minimum pressure losses and strong transmission efficiency
- Low operating and maintenance costs
- Silent operation: 65 dB(A)
- Simplified maintenance (easy access to internal components)
- Easy to transport (side handles on base mounted version; forklift/pallet truck access on tank units)
- Triple voltage on three-phase units (usable with 208/230 or 460 V by changing motor connection)
Efficient and Cost-Effective
The coaxial transmission maximizes efficiency by eliminating flexible couplings. The FS14 air-end helps minimize pressure losses, supporting energy savings and reduced operating costs.
Easy to Transport
ORION is designed for convenient handling. The base mounted version includes side handles, and tank mounted units are prepared for forklift or pallet truck handling at the bottom of the tank.
Simplified Maintenance
All internal components are easily accessible, making routine maintenance fast and simple to perform.
