Compressors


Units for controlling piston and screw compressors: star-delta starting, motor protection, timed drains, operating temperature and running hours for oil changes and servicing. On special units we add the parameters the manufacturer asks for.

Which star-delta starter do you recommend?

The VETV02, with a star-to-delta pause adjustable from 0.02 to 2 seconds and 16 A contacts, or the ZETV02 in 17.5 mm.

How is the receiver drain automated?

With an XTDU303 / XTDC303 asymmetrical cyclic timer, which sets the drain time and the time between drains separately.
