SUPERIOR performance, eco-sustainability, energy savings, high-tech content and innovative control, cooling, and lubricant recovery systems, are the elements that characterise the RVD and RVDi compressor series; the latest releases from Mattei. The Innovation and Industrialisation department of the Milan-based company designed the range to maximise efficiency, minimise energy costs and contribute to the fight against global warming.
The RVD and RVDi compressor series is available in South Africa from Rotorvane Compressor Sales, the official distributor of Mattei compressors in Southern and Sub-Saharan Africa.
Designed for efficiency and sustainability
Using Mattei-patented rotary vane technology with zero-wear vanes and bushings, the RVD and RVDi series of compressors are the first machines to feature Mattei’s latest innovation: isolated cooling with oversized radiators. This is a system that, by separating the radiators from the rest of the components, allows for lower temperatures inside the bodywork and keeps them cleaner. In addition, they are equipped with easily accessible panels to carry out cleaning operations safely and effectively, in maintaining the radiators in dirty hostile environments.
Advanced features deliver energy and cost savings
The innovations and benefits of this range are numerous and in keeping with the high technological profile of the latest generation of Mattei products. In addition to isolated cooling, the RVD 30–55(i) series includes a quick-disconnect fitting for depressurising the delivery line, located in a convenient position on the machine, to which a blowgun hose can be connected to also serve for easier maintenance. It also comes with a separate air-intake line that improves performance and extends the life of the two-stage filter element, guaranteeing financial savings.
Other features include Xtreme communications technology and maintenance-free lubricant recovery technology, which optimises energy efficiency, and reduces recirculation losses whilst improving air quality.
Finally, the series is equipped with a pumping unit with integrated oil filter and an air/oil separator filter that has a 10 000-hour lifespan that is directly coupled to the motor shaft, which guarantees low noise and eliminates the efficiency losses found in competing belt or gear driven transmissions.
Whilst all this equipment comes as standard, further additional options are also available: a water-cooled version, the addition of a moisture separator and condensate drain, the possibility of installing a heat recovery system, an oil quality sensor, an IE4 motor for maximum energy efficiency, as well as a version with integrated refrigerant dryer. The RVD and RVDi ranges are robust and reliable and benefit from the Mattei MyCare 6 extended warranty plan that covers all service costs for six years.
