Kaeser Compressors custom engineered blower systems

Plants looking to expand their blower room or put the blowers in a separate building can consider Kaeser Compressors custom engineered blower systems. These pre-built, enclosed blower systems reduce engineering and installation costs. Kaeser will design, build and deliver a complete blower system in a permanent, weatherproof enclosure. This is often faster and less expensive than traditional building design, permitting and construction. The custom engineered solutions can be built for lobe, screw or turbo blowers and are designed for reliability, easy service access and energy efficiency no matter what the installation limitations may be. They can be designed for any climate and ensure an optimal, temperature controlled operating environment. All internal piping and electrical work is completed prior to delivery. On-site commissioning is just a matter of connecting to the main power supply, one process pipe and a communication cable if remote monitoring/control is desired. 866-516-6888; www.us.kaeser.com
