Levante – the bigger and better benchmark

3-stage air-cooled starting-air compressors

Exclusively developed for commercial shipping, our Levante 3-stage air-cooled compressors have quickly become the must-have solution for the maritime industry. A robust, compact design allows these low-maintenance compressors to fit easily into any engine room. A newly developed CubeCooler installed between motor and compressor has optimized the airflow, reduced the re-cooling temperatures by a third and thus boosted inter-cooling efficiency. Last but not least, the user-friendly human machine interface with an integrated gauge panel has made Levante compressors even easier to operate.

Bigger

  • Extended capacity range: 360–460 m³/h
  • Enhanced safety
  • Improved cost-benefit ratio through simpler engine room outfitting

 

Better

  • Highly efficient cooling arrangement
  • Minimal vibrations thanks to superior mass balance
  • State-of-the-art human machine interface

 

Basic benefits

  • Robust design of running gear and technical layout
  • Fits into any engine room with minimal interfaces
  • Easy to access, inspect and maintain
