Elgi Compressors Europe has expanded its portfolio of direct drive screw air compressors from 11-22kW with new 30-45kW units and pressure versions up to 15.5 bar g.

The EQ Series is expected to provide reliability to manufacturing plants with relatively lower-duty cycles that traditionally use small belt-driven air compressors. In line with Elgi’s customer-centric approach, the EQ ‘Elgi Quest’ Series is built for customers requiring reliable compressed air at improved flows.

The Elgi EQ 11- 45kW is engineered to meet the needs of small to medium-sized industrial customers, including vehicle service centres, general manufacturing, and wood and metalworking industries.

With the new 15.5 bar g version, the EQ 11-45 kW models are now capable of meeting the requirements for applications such as laser cutting of metals.

Capable of operating in dusty and humid conditions with an ambient temperature rating of up to 50°C, the EQ Series is said to deliver compressed air at improved flows.

Key benefits of the Elgi EQ Series include:

  • Designed as an oil-lubricated direct-drive compressor available in multiple capacities from 11-45kW
  • Fixed or variable-speed drive available for all units in the series
  • Available in 7, 8, 9.5,12.5, and 15.5 bar g pressure variants
  • Design temperature of 50 degrees Celsius, ensuring superior cooling and reliability
  • Pre-filters at all air inlets
  • Long service interval of 4000 hours (intake filter, oil, oil filter, air/oil separator element)
  • A warranty of six years on airend, five years on other main components, three years on VFD, and one year on rubber and electrical parts


Niccolò Casini, director of product management at ELGi Compressors, Europe, said: “Our customers have already seen significant benefits from our EQ Series screw air compressors, elevating their businesses with reliable compressed air, peak efficiency, and substantial cost savings. Responding to market demands for more industrial-grade compressors, we are now expanding the EQ Series from the current range of 11-22 kW, adding more powerful 30-45 kW units.”
