Industrial low-pressure air systems are increasingly focused on energy savings, operational stability and long-term cost control, especially in water treatment, pneumatic conveying and continuous manufacturing scenarios. To meet the growing demand for high-efficiency, zero-contamination low-pressure air equipment, Atlas Copco has upgraded its blower portfolio by launching the new-generation ZS 4 (VSD) oil-free screw blower. Built on the proven ZS blower platform and optimized with advanced VSD+ variable speed drive technology, the new model delivers notable improvements in energy efficiency, pressure stability, lifecycle economy and low-noise operation for heavy-duty industrial applications.
Dual-Pressure Structure and Optimized Technical Configuration
The ZS 4 (VSD) series features a dual-pressure design to adapt to diversified working conditions. The low-pressure configuration, operating below 800 mbar, is perfectly tailored for wastewater aeration and similar low-pressure processes. Meanwhile, the upgraded high-pressure version supports pneumatic conveying and other medium-to-high pressure industrial workflows. Covering a power range from 37 kW to 90 kW, the blower adopts an innovative smart pressure split structure to maintain efficient and stable operation under dynamically changing pressure requirements. Equipped with high-grade IE4/IE5 high-efficiency motors, the unit sustains steady airflow output while effectively cutting overall power consumption.
Tailored for Water Industry Energy-Saving Upgrades
As the UK water sector continues boosting infrastructure investment under the AMP8 framework, energy conservation and whole-life cost optimization have become core development targets for water treatment enterprises. Industry professionals state that the newly launched ZS 4 (VSD) blower precisely targets these industry pain points. With lower energy consumption, simplified maintenance cycles and durable long-term performance, it helps water utilities and general industrial users achieve greener and more economical production operations.
Outstanding Energy Efficiency and Clean, Low-Noise Operation
In terms of energy-saving performance, the ZS 4 (VSD) achieves up to 35% higher energy efficiency compared with traditional lobe blowers, with further optimized specific energy requirements (SER). The stable airflow output ensures consistent performance even under continuous load changes, effectively reducing operational expenditure and total cost of ownership for factories and water plants. In addition, the blower provides Class 0 oil-free air compression, guaranteeing ultra-clean and pollution-free air supply for environmentally sensitive and high-purity air scenarios. Optimized acoustic structure and internal damping technology lower operating noise to just 75 dB(A), greatly improving on-site working comfort and meeting modern factory environmental standards.
Enhanced Durability and Flexible Plug-and-Play Deployment
For long-term operational reliability, the ZS 4 (VSD) adopts heavy-duty mechanical structures and genuine Atlas Copco components, enabling stable operation in harsh industrial environments. Optimized mechanical stress distribution reduces component fatigue and failure risks, extending the equipment’s overall service life. With compact layout, ultra-low noise and plug-and-play installation advantages, the new-generation oil-free screw blower sets a new industry benchmark for low-pressure air supply equipment.
Driving Sustainable and Cost-Effective Industrial Development
Through continuous technological iteration in energy-saving design and precision engineering, Atlas Copco’s updated blower series helps industrial facilities enhance operational productivity, lower carbon emissions and achieve sustainable, cost-effective production upgrades.
