ELGi’s AB Series provides flour power in Italy03 October 2022

Italian flour miller Polselli has selected three water-injected AB Series screw air compressors of 45kW to support its entire pneumatic production and bagging requirements.

The AB45s provide air quality in line with the ISO8573-1 Class ‘0’ oil-free air and ISO8573-Class 7 compliance norms, ensuring no traces of microbial contaminants, high reliability, consistent air quality, and a low lifecycle cost.

Installed in January 2022, three ELGi AB Series oil-free compressors (two AB45 fixed speed and one AB45V variable speed) is aligned with the company’s goals to innovate and improve the environmental impact of its operations constantly.

Domenico Polselli, owner of the third-generation family-owned flour millers, Polselli said, "The Polselli family’s passion for wheat is based on quality, transparency, and reliability. These same principles guided our choice when upgrading our existing oil-lubricated compressors. We needed the highest quality of air, ensuring zero risk of oil contamination to meet our strict quality standards and an honest and trustworthy partner who assured ease of maintenance and the reliability of our compressed air systems.

“The latter is a critical factor when producing and bagging 40 different types of flour mixes, using around 22 varieties of grain and producing up to 350 tonnes per day. In the six months since installation, the units have performed flawlessly, thanks to ELGi’s quality and the service and support provided by SOL.IM.I., ELGi’s Channel Partner.”
