Ingersoll Rand, a global leader in compressed air and gas systems and services, power tools, material handling and fluid management equipment, introduced the new RS30 and RS37 models, the first in a series of next generation oil-flooded, rotary screw air compressors.

The Next Generation R-Series Air Compressors deliver world-class performance and enhanced reliability, lowering operational costs for those in need of general purpose plant air in support of assembly, manufacturing, mining and conveying applications, according to the company.

“Our customers are under unprecedented pressure to be leaner, more productive and more energy efficient,” Eric Seidel, the company’s vice president of global product management for compression technologies and services, said in a statement. “The Next Generation R-Series air compressors provide enhanced compressor performance that can greatly reduce our customers’ energy footprint while maintaining reliable compressed air to keep their operations running smoothly.”

The new air compressors improve performance through a state-of-the-art air end, which is the heart of every air compressor. The new air-end design was developed through advanced analytics and modeling, and includes amongst other things, an optimized rotor profile that provides up to an 18 percent efficiency improvement compared to previous models, according to the company.
