100% oil-free air technology

Industries such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, electronics and textiles must exclude any risk of oil contamination. Atlas Copco pioneered the development of oil-free air screw technology nearly sixty years ago. Its range of oil-free air screw compressors are designed for critical applications that require 100% oil-free, clean air.

Already a leader in the field of oil-free air compression technology, Atlas Copco asked the internationally recognized Technical Monitoring Association TÜV to type-test the Z range of oil-free screw compressors. They were submitted to the most rigorous testing methodologies available. All possible oil forms were measured across a wide range of temperatures and pressures.

The TÜV found no traces of oil in the output air stream. Atlas Copco has thereby become the first compressor manufacturer to receive certification for a new industry standard of air purity: ISO 8573-1 CLASS 0
