The perfect fit to maximise productivity
Premium compressor manufacturer Gardner Denver has launched a new range of energy efficient 160 kW to 250 kW oil-injected, screw air compressors to enhance its existing range of GD machines.
The new premium efficiency machines with FOURCORE technology for two stage compression are available in 8 different models: ESM/VS160FC, ESM/VS200FC, ESM/VS250FC, ESM/VS290e (high flow model) in fixed & variable speed.
The new high power range L160FC to L290FC of lubricated screw compressors comprises of fixed speed and regulated speed (RS) models. The design features brand new, innovative technology engineered to provide next level performance and efficiency for customers across a wide variety of industries.
These new models are offered in addition to the well established existing range of 160 to 250kW machines, which have been powering a diverse range of industries worldwide for many years.

The core benefit of the new ESM/VS 160FC to ESM/VS 290FC range is that it delivers much greater efficiency than 1 stage compressors but comes in a German engineered package that is the same size as it! Users in a variety industries benefit from an amazing, space-saving design that offer next level efficiency and performance.
The ESM / VS 160-290 series is specifically designed to meet the demands of continuous 24-hour use and absolute uptime, as required in critical industrial processes.
Innovative design delivers great benefits:
Our application engineering team have developed a premium efficiency 2-stage model for fixed and regulated speed compressors using the new technology of the compact double stage airend. What’s unique about this design is that the airend has 1 motor and 4 rotors located in a single, semi-integrated casting. This differs from traditional 2-stage compressors, providing a compact package with high energy savings. In fact, these machines are the same size as a 1 stage machine due to new airend technology.
The innovative FOURCORE technology assures best in class efficiency that goes up to 10% higher than the single stage frame 6 and it features all the benefits of two stage compression without the disadvantages.
The efficient motor/drive/air-end combination are designed to reduce the specific power, which benefits you in the form of energy cost savings. Additionally, Gardner Denver is using TEFC IP55, high efficiency motors.
The design of the Gardner Denver airends makes operation reliable and maintenance easy ensuring minimal downtime. The high-output compression element with slow rotational speed reduces energy costs. In addition, the innovative design of the fail safe shaft seal, integrated oil filter and oil regulation valve, ensures external hoses are reduced to a minimum to guarantee the highest levels of quality and reliability are achieved.
The ESM series is easy to service. Large double doors provide easy access to all service points. All maintenance can be completed from the front of the compressor.
Superb flexibility comes as standard with the VS Series. With up to 80% regulation range, the VS Series features the market's quickest and widest response to air demand changes.
Your benefits during varying air demand:
The radial fan concept represents quiet and efficient operation. Additionally, peripheral speed means low noise and the power consumption is up to 50% lower than a comparable axial fan. Another advantage is the high residual thrust (stable curve) that allows the use of exhaust ducting with a pressure drop of up to 130 Pa. The oversized after coolers used in the ESM / VS 160-290 series also ensure an optimum cooling and discharge temperature.
The “GD Pilot TS” with its high resolution touch screen display is extremely user friendly and self-explanatory. All functions are clearly structured in five main menus and are visually intuitive. The multilingual “GD Pilot TS” control system ensures reliable operation and protects your investment by continuously monitoring the operational parameters, which is essential for reducing your running costs. With the ability to display detailed system analysis in the form of trend diagrams and graphs, operating parameters can be precisely set to maximise efficiency.
Compressed air systems typically comprise of multiple compressors delivering air to a common distribution system. The addition of the optional base load sequencing module will allow for the central control of up to four compressors matching the delivery to plant demand
The design of these packages assures the service points are readily accessible. The enclosure side doors are hinged and removable to allow complete access to all service points. The reduced number of moving parts also lowers maintenance costs.
