ASU Compressors


DURABLE, EFFICIENT, AND COMPACT COMPRESSORS FOR AIR START CARTS

Utilizing state-of-the art centrifugal design, Inovair’s highly durable air start compressors deliver 45+ psi with higher efficiency than screw blowers. These compressors are available in a variety of flows, covering 100 PPM to 300 PPM. Choose from three ASU models - the 7150, the 7210, and the 7300 - to match the flow, pressure, and duty cycle needs for your application.

COMPACT, LIGHTWEIGHT, AND COST EFFECTIVE

Inovair’s patented ASU compressor design for the air start market features a substantially reduced size and weight relative to screw blowers and APU’s. This allows for easier packaging and a reduced size for ASU carts, as well as the ability to design the cart to support less weight. The result is a much more cost effective solution.
