View ProductsWHAT IS A ROTARY SCREW AIR COMPRESSOR?
Rotary screw air compressors are categorized as a positive displacement compressor, functioning by capturing air between interlocking helical screws or rotors in motion. Its primary purpose is to deliver an uninterrupted stream of compressed air, serving diverse industrial needs. These versatile air compressors excel in consistent and efficient operation, making them well-suited for diverse industrial environments necessitating a steady provision of compressed air. Available in a variety of sizes and capacities, they cater to distinct air demand prerequisites.
Evergreen offers both oil-lubricated and oil-free rotary screw air compressors.
What are the benefits of rotary screw air compressors?
- High Efficiency : Compared to some other types of compressors, rotary screw compressors are generally more efficient. They produce less energy waste, which means they can deliver more compressed air output for the energy input they consume.
- Continuous Operation : Rotary screw compressors can operate continuously without the need for frequent starts and stops. This makes them ideal for applications that require a consistent and reliable supply of compressed air.
- Reliability : With less moving parts and a balanced design, rotary screw compressors are known for their reliability and durability, requiring less maintenance and reducing downtime.
- Low Noise : Due to advanced noise reduction technology, rotary screw air compressors operate at lower noise levels, which can prove to be an advantage for indoor applications or noise-sensitive environments.
- Compact Design : Rotary screw compressors have a space-efficient design, which makes them suitable for installations where space is limited.

How should I choose between an oil-free or oil-lubricated rotary screw air compressor?
Choosing between an oil-free and an oil-lubricated rotary screw air compressor depends on your specific application requirements, air quality needs, and operational preferences. The decision between an oil-free and an oil-lubricated rotary screw air compressor should be based on your specific needs. Here are some key factors to consider when making this decision:
Oil-Free Rotary Screw Air Compressors:
- Air Purity Requirements : Consider the level of air purity needed for your applications. If your processes require completely oil-free air to prevent contamination,an oil-free compressor is essential.
- Maintenance and Oil-Free Operation : Oil-free compressors generally have lower maintenance requirements since there's no need for oil changes or filtration of oil contaminants. This can lead to reduced downtime and maintenance costs.
- Long-Term Cost Savings : While oil-free compressors often have higher upfront costs, they can provide long-term cost savings by eliminating the need for oil-related maintenance, reducing the risk of downtime, and ensuring consistent air quality.
Oil-Lubricated Rotary Screw Air Compressors:
- Initial Cost and Budget : Oil-lubricated compressors generally have a lower upfront cost compared to oil-free models. If budget constraints are a concern, an oil-lubricated compressor might be a more economical choice.
- Application Flexibility : Oil-lubricated compressors are suitable for a wide range of general industrial applications where air quality is not a critical factor. If your application doesn't require strict air purity, an oil-lubricated compressor can be considered.
- Energy Efficiency and Technology : Modern oil-lubricated compressors are designed with energy-efficient features. Some models incorporate variable speed drives (VSD) to optimize energy consumption by matching output to demand.
- Ease of Maintenance and Flexibility : Oil-lubricated compressors may require more frequent maintenance due to oil changes and filter replacements. However, maintenance procedures are often straightforward, and technicians are familiar with oil-based systems.
