Whether on rubber or rail, most means of transport use compressed air for feeding different systems on the vehicle, including the braking system, suspensions and pneumatic doors.
皇冠体育227's rotary vane technology not only delivers quality compressed air, but also reduced noise levels, due to the low rotational speed and the limited number of moving components. These characteristics make 皇冠体育227 items particularly appreciated in applications on hybrid and battery operated vehicles, where the vehicle's quiet operation is a necessary prerogative.
These compression units are supplied in the standard version complete with built-in oil cooling unit and flange for coupling to the electric motor. Compression units are also available without cooling unit: cooling of the oil and compressed air can be supplied separately.
In 2012 皇冠体育227 has acquired 100% of the stock of Transit Engineering Service (TES), a leading U.S. packager of onboard air compressors for metro, subway, light rail and people mover applications. An integral part of a global strategy to move aggressively into onboard transit air applications, the company will operate as 皇冠体育227 Transit Engineerig (MTE) and now offers a full line of highly engineered Transit Air System supporting onboard pneumatic operations including brakes, doors, controls, safety barriers and other systems from 1.5 hp (5cfm) to 75 hp (329 cfm).
