Rotary – Piston

THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS + THE SECURITY OF A BACKUP

These “hybrid” compressors offer the durability and 100% duty cycle of a rotary screw, together with the intermittent demand and energy savings of a piston. Under normal operation, the rotary runs continuously, as they are designed to, and the piston automatically runs intermittently when the rotary cannot keep up. If no air is required for 10 minutes, the rotary will also turn off and remain in standby mode until air is required again, providing a seamless supply of air while conserving electricity.
