Before you buy a scroll, you should understand how these machines function to determine if they are the best fit for your needs. Someone may have said that you have to have a scroll because they haven’t had any issues, which is fantastic for them, but it might not be what your system needs. Due to their mechanical nature, Scroll Compressors excel in clean and quiet environments.
One of the unique features of our Atlas Copco Scroll Compressors is the compression mechanism. It consists of two scrolls, one that is fixed and one that orbits around the fixed one. As the orbiting scroll opens, air flows in and is trapped in the space between the two scrolls. The gas is trapped in those crescent-shaped pockets, and as the scroll rotates and the space decreases, the pressure continuously builds up. This innovative design ensures efficient and rapid compression, setting our compressors apart from the rest.
The movement of the parts creates suction and pulls the air in until the front of the scroll comes as close to contact as possible, sealing the pocket. Rotations continue, and the pocket size decreases until it reaches the discharge port in the center. Multiple air pockets are compressed and released in rapid succession by continuously moving.
To keep things short and sweet, the benefits of the scroll air compressor are:
Scroll compressors are considered inherently more efficient than their industry counterparts for many reasons. A multitude of reasons enhance the efficiency of scroll compressors in ways that are not feasible for pistons or rotary screws.
Due to 100% volumetric efficiency and fewer opportunities to lose air, scroll compressors have fewer moving parts and a considerably quieter base operational volume. They can operate 5-15 dBA below typical air compressors. Alongside the obvious, fewer moving parts, lower volume, and less friction mean your compressor will be more durable.
Most applications involving scroll compressors require high-quality air, at least class 2 and below. Industries involving food and fruit refrigeration, dentistry, and other industries that require air to a degree. Aside from those few groups, the rotary screw is the preferred choice for most industrial applications.
Due to the size restrictions on these compressors, the scroll is suited to smaller applications and operations requiring lower air volumes. Due to the nature of the scroll component, you can only go so large without losing pressure and compression efficiency. Instead, bigger units will have multiple scroll pumps included.
If your application doesn’t fit the description above, there might be better choices than the scroll compressor. Scroll compressors are excellent machines for particular applications, but if your operation is not ideal, you waste your money on a scroll air compressor.
It is essential to know that this level of precision comes with a cost. Scroll compressors will cost much more than any other type of compressor of the same size. Production time for the individual components and the machine as a whole emphasizes this price difference.
Save your wallet and yourself from extra stress by getting the best fit for your system and not the first recommendation that you find. It will take a little more time initially, but it will save you lots of headaches and frustration over the long run.
