* *
50E & 50D
Medium and High Pressure
Air Compressors. 50mm Series

Capacities: 20 - 250 m3/h (12 - 145 cfm)

Pressures: 17 - 400 bar (250 - 5800 psig)

Hamworthy 50mm series medium and high pressure air or
water cooled compressors are multi-stage, two crank, dry sump
pressure lubricated machines. Designed for land and marine
applications involving the supply of air or gas at high pressure.
Suitable for Electric* motor or Diesel* engine drives.
Standard Features
• Air pressure gauge and safety valve for each stage
• Oil pressure gauge and relief valve
• Suction filter and silencer
• Cooler drain valves
• Integral interstage and after coolers
• High efficiency low lift concentric valves at each stage
• Fusible plugs for high temperature protection
• Thermometers
• Air delivery non-return valve
• Separator column
• Automatic unloaders
• Automatic cooler drains
• High air temperature switch
• Low lubricating oil pressure switch
• Solenoid unloading valve
Drives and Mountings
Machines are suitable for direct or belt drive. Electric motors
are arranged above the unit to drive the machine in a compact
modular assembly with the compressor below. Engine driven
machines are arranged on a combined base plate. All drive
systems are adequately guarded and all units are complete
with full protection devices for safe operation.
Classification
Units are tested as a fully assembled machine with the
specified control system as complete, ready for installation
units. Marine classification survey and inspection available
when specified.
Containerisation
Twin electric driven units can be supplied in 10ft ISO CSC
plated containers with storage reservoirs and condensate
management systems. Engineered for offshore or harsh desert
environments. Ambient conditions from -10°C to +50°C.

Optional Features
• Carrying frame
• Containerisation
• System air pressure switch
• Electrical starter/controller
