35% savings on energy consumption
The benefits of advanced technology.

✓ Absolute reliability
❑ Designed and manufactured in accordance with the ISO 9001/9002 and ISO
14001 certification, the GA 30-90 VSD range meets the industry’s
expectations of the highest quality standards. The GA 30-90 VSD range
complies with the Electro-Magnetic Compatibility (EMC) standard. All units
are in conformance with the ISO 1217, ed.3, Annex C - 1996 test code.
✓ Superior performance, cut energy
❑ Thanks to the variable speed drive technology, air demand and compressor
costs more than 35% capacity can be perfectly matched, eliminating unloaded power consumption
completely.
✓ Very precise pressure control
❑ The GA VSD can keep the pressure within a +/- 1.5 psig band, resulting in
even more energy savings as every 7 psig reduction in delivery pressure
reduces the power consumption by 3%.
✓ Pressure flexibility thanks to
❑ The GA VSD allows the user to choose any delivery between 58 and 188 psig
electronic gearing without changing any gears or belt.
✓ Low maintenance costs
❑ The GA VSD performs a “soft” start avoiding current and torque peaks. As a
result, the unit can perform an unlimited number of motor starts and
consequently, there is less stress and wear on all mechanical components.
✓ Outstanding electrical
❑ The GA VSD eliminates penalties from electricity companies by having a
characteristics high power factor and no starting current peaks.
✓ Low noise level
❑ The use of a radial low speed fan and modern techniques of vibro-acoustic
optimization have resulted in extremely low noise levels.
✓ Elektronikon
❑ ®
control This advanced control, monitoring, and communication system maximizes
overall compressor efficiency and reliability and minimizes maintenance
costs. At the same time, all world-wide interfaces for remote control and
communication are available.
✓ “WorkPlace” full feature,
❑ All air and condensate treatment equipment can be integrated in the
all-in-one package compressor package, reducing the installation cost and floor-space
requirement.
✓ Global sales and service
❑ From concept to installation, from consultation to preventive maintenance and
organization service activities, Atlas Copco is your compressed air partner helping to
maintain your production process.
