Rotary screw air compressor specialists

 

Rotary screw air compressors have earned a reputation as a dependable powerhouse. These machines offer advanced efficiency, environmental benefits, and consistent performance, making them indispensable across various industries. Rotary screw air compressors deliver the reliable compressed air required to keep operations running smoothly. Pilot Air has been supplying the most advanced rotary screw air compressors on the Australian market for over 40 years.

Efficiency is at our core

Our range of rotary screw air compressors are celebrated for their efficiency. The ALTA-TEC series sets a new efficiency, reliability, and energy savings benchmark.

With continuous investment in research and development, the series has been enhanced with a Two-Stage Rotary Screw Design, making it a standout in the industrial market. Powered by IE4 Super Premium Efficiency Permanent Magnet Motors, combined with a direct transmission system and advanced Login electronic controls, the ALTA-TEC delivers exceptional energy savings and cutting-edge performance.

Innovative features, including the latest-generation air-ends, ensure the compressor is highly efficient, remarkably quiet, and reliable. An integrated inverter dynamically adjusts motor speed to match real-time air demand, optimising airflow while preventing energy wastage through soft start-ups and reducing no-load operation.

The result is a highly advanced compressor that meets modern industrial needs for efficiency, sustainability, and long-term cost savings.

“Built for Australian conditions, our rotary screw compressors combine efficiency, durability, and advanced technology.”

Environmental advantages

Environmental sustainability is a critical priority for businesses today, driving the need for efficiency across all operations. The ALTA-TEC series compressors offer a significant opportunity to support these goals, combining cutting-edge technology with environmental responsibility.

Choosing ALTA-TEC compressors is more than an operational decision—it’s a commitment to preserving natural resources and reducing environmental impact. These compressors are designed to dramatically lower energy consumption through features like high-efficiency motors and dynamic, real-time airflow adjustment. By consuming less energy, they significantly reduce CO2 emissions, helping businesses shrink their carbon footprint and align with global sustainability goals.

This focus on energy efficiency saves costs and contributes to preserving ecosystems and reducing reliance on non-renewable energy sources. For industries striving to balance productivity with environmental stewardship, ALTA-TEC compressors represent an intelligent and sustainable choice.

Lower energy use translates into reduced strain on power grids and fewer emissions, making it easier for companies to achieve compliance with environmental regulations while demonstrating leadership in sustainable practices. By integrating these compressors into their operations, businesses can play a meaningful role in combating climate change while enhancing their efficiency and reputation.

The smartest air compressor on the market

 

Pilot Air’s ALTA-TEC Intelligent air compressors have a login controller and offer unmatched performance, diagnostic capabilities, and remote accessibility.

The innovative login controller enhances operational efficiency with advanced diagnostic functions that monitor real-time performance. Centralising the management of all compressor functions ensures smooth and reliable operation under all conditions. This intelligent system is customisable, allowing it to adapt to specific industrial applications.

In the event of irregularities, the login controller generates instant alerts, enabling prompt operator intervention. This proactive approach minimises downtime, reduces maintenance costs, and ensures that production lines continue running without interruption.

One of the standout features of our intelligent air compressors is their ability to integrate with remote monitoring systems. With connectivity options like GSM, GPRS, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi, operators can access real-time data on compressor performance from virtually anywhere using a PC, smartphone, or tablet.

This remote access allows quick troubleshooting, real-time performance tracking, and even remote assistance. The optional Service Management System (SMS 2.0) further enhances this capability by providing preventive maintenance alerts, automatically sending fault notifications, and generating regular operational reports.

Such digital integration not only ensures the longevity of the equipment but also empowers businesses to make data-driven decisions and reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns.
