ComVac hall at Hannover 2007

Pneumofore appeared in the 2007 edition of the largest industrial fair with a reduced booth surface but a larger range of products. We exhibited several rotary vane air-ends, from the A10 air compressor to the UV50 vacuum pump. As complete unit our guests could see and touch the A30.4 compressor and the UV8 BF vacuum pump. Being specialized in tailored solutions for niche market applications or extraordinary tough operational circumstances, Pneumofore did not present ordinary solutions like the majority of the exhibitors in the ComVac hall. The A30.4 air compressor has 15 kW installed nominal power for 50 Hz operation from 2.5 to 4 bar with 175 m³/h capacity, thus a dedicated motor for reduced power consumption, avoiding the energy wasting pressure reducer normally installed in screw units. The A series air compressors were in fact the highlight of 2007, since each model has three different motor sizes for the three pressure ranges from 2.5 to 4, from 4 to 8 and from 8 to 10 bar. Air-cooling is standard also for installations in hot climate countries with ambient temperatures up to 50 °C, therefore also the supply voltage and frequency can vary significantly. The UV8 BF (seen on the upper picture) is a stainless steel version for applications in food and chemical industries. In particular, the BF extension stands for Beer Filling, an application where liquid ring pumps are easily replaced with extraordinary short return of investment durations.

Presenting the core elements of our machines naked was a successful idea to attract more visitors seeking for alternatives to rotary screw air-ends. After several years of operation and repair jobs, many companies assembling air compressors around the world, know today the limits of the screw technology in terms of reliability, durability and efficiency. Some customers operating Pneumofore equipment thought to improve their technological machine park by buying screw compressors, but now, after about five years of 24/7 operation, speak 40.000 hours, they return to the supplier of the 'older' technology. Simply because their 20 years old Pneumofore vane machine still runs trouble-free while the latest purchased screw compressor generates impossible high repair costs, like the replacement of the air-end.
Hannover fair is the platform to be for the launching of new industrial products. We used to be there decades ago, we look forward to meet you again in 2009.

Innovation is evolution !
