CSE and CSF: The Evolution Continues

Sullair's Champion brand CSF range is available from 11 to 30kW, and the larger CSE range from 37 to 45kW. Both varieties have working pressures of 7.8, 10 and 13bar. The latest CSF and CSE compressor ranges feature IP54-rated electrical enclosures, and have been engineered for 100 per cent duty over extended periods in harsh conditions—such as ambient temperatures of 50 degrees Celsius.

The CSE and CSF compressors have kept pace with technological advancements since their development with numerous design enhancements. Originally designed as on/off load rotary screw compressors, the CSEs and CSFs are also available with variable speed drive capabilities - providing energy efficiency improvements for variable load applications. The CSE and CSF feature heavy-duty US-built Sullair airends for improved performance, efficiency and airend life.

The CSE and CSF provide many efficiency, reliability and environmental gains for end users. The totally enclosed fan-cooled motors are fully MEPS2-compliant - providing lower operational costs over the life of the compressor. With an integral throttle in the airend, the CSF range has fewer moving parts. This can improve reliability and simplify maintenance. Both systems use electronic controllers to improve flexibility and efficiency.

The CSE and CSF ranges come standard with Sullair's advanced compressor lubricant, Sullube - providing far-reaching environmental and performance benefits. With an operational lifetime of up to 8000 hours, Sullube reduces the total volume of lubricant disposed into the environment and is biodegradable. Combined with improvements in acoustic design for low noise performance the CSE and CSF range are designed with the environment in mind.

In addition to these enhancements, the CSE and CSF compressors retain many attributes from the original line-up, including a robust and reliable rotary screw airend, and a cyclonic tangential-flow air/oil separation design. A two-stage air-intake filter with cyclonic pre-filter, an inlet control system and an advanced lubrication system helps set the CSE and CSF apart from their competitors.

Since coming onto the market, the CSE and CSF ranges have evolved to incorporate the latest technologies, and continue to set the standard in compressor performance.

The evolution of the CSE and CSF range of compressors continues with significant design enhancements that continue to the focus on performance, energy efficiency and the environment.
