Build energy savings into your process

With rising energy costs, reducing consumption is an obvious target for businesses wanting to reduce their operating expenses. For Atlas Copco, it is a leading design priority.

The ZR/ZT 30-55 FLX dual-speed rotary compressor is optimized to save energy in every component and throughout the lifetime of your investment.


It’s time to take control

40% Compressed Air Generation

One of the largest energy consumption areas in industrial operations, significantly impacting total electricity costs.

80% Energy Consumption

Energy use represents the largest share of a compressor’s total lifecycle costs in a traditional installation.


Class-leading energy efficiency

The oil-cooled permanent magnet motor leads its class in ef ficiency (IE5 – 97%). It allows full regulation between 30 to 100% of the maximum capacity, boosting versatility and ensuring energy savings at lower demand. 

The oil-free tooth element is the most efficient in its power range. Its unique design and superior rotor coating also contribute to class-leading durability.

The purpose-designed cooling air flow, supported by a VSD cooling fan, ensures maximum energy savings during unload.


VSD: the gold standard for cost savings

Variable Speed Drive technology powers our most energy-efficient solutions. By automatically matching the motor speed to air demand, it can cut energy use by up to 35% and reduce your compressor’s life-cycle cost by an average of 22%. 

If you are looking to future-proof your operation but are not yet ready to invest in VSD, the ZR/ZT 30-55 FLX will help you start saving now – while offering the option of upgrading to VSD later.
