Your benefits with the BASE VSD screw compressor
- Adaptation to your actual requirements: Thanks to the integrated speed control, the BASE VSD adapts compressed air production precisely to your requirements. This reduces energy consumption and avoids expensive idle times.
- Low energy costs: The IE4 permanent magnet motor ensures high efficiency and optimum power output – especially in the partial load range, where other compressors waste energy.
- Fewer mechanical losses: The directly driven compressor stage transmits the power without loss. This increases efficiency and reduces operating costs.
- Planned maintenance, high availability: Long maintenance intervals for oil, air filters and oil separator elements reduce running costs and increase operational reliability.
- Transparency at a glance: The SCC control system clearly displays all relevant operating data, including pressure, temperature, maintenance status and running times.
- 5-year free warranty: Subject to compliance with maintenance intervals using original SCC parts and oils.

Details upon request
The BASE TD is your complete compressed air station in one system.
Efficient, compact and particularly user-friendly.
With an integrated refrigerant dryer and filters, pre-assembled on a space-saving tank, you receive a ready-to-use plug-and-play solution. All components are factory-installed and perfectly matched to one another.
On site, you only require:
- Power connection
- Connection to the compressed air network
This saves you time during installation and planning and allows you to put the system into operation safely and immediately.



Industrial Application
Efficient compressed air is a must in many areas of industrial production.
The BASE VSD is particularly suitable for applications with varying consumption because it adapts its output to demand via speed control.
- Workshops & trades: Flexible compressed air supply matching typical daily profiles.
- Production halls: Supplying machines and production lines with fluctuating demand.
- Operating Buildings/Technical Rooms: Low noise emissions allow for flexible installation.
- General industry: Efficient and easy to maintain in operation.

FAQ
Process + Service
We usually deliver standard models up to 75 kW within 5 working days. For special versions or project-specific requirements, we will inform you of the exact delivery time on request or in the quotation. Installation and positioning, scheduling and project-related logistics are coordinated together in advance.
Installation depends on the location, ventilation, power supply, and compressed air network. We provide clear specifications regarding required clearances and connections. An authorised service partner handles the commissioning and provides training for the operating personnel.
Maintenance is based on operating hours and conditions according to the maintenance plan. Depending on the version, it includes, among other things, changing filters and the scheduled inspection and control work, as well as oil and oil separators for oil-lubricated variants. This ensures that efficiency, operational reliability, and availability remain stable in the long term.
The currently valid warranty conditions apply. The specific warranty period and scope are transparently stated in the quote or order confirmation. If a 5-year warranty is specified there, it applies according to the scope and requirements. In the event of a warranty claim, we require the serial number as well as proof of maintenance and commissioning (and any other documents according to the warranty conditions).
To design a screw compressor, we need consumption (m³/min), pressure level, load profile, and operating times. Send us these key details, and we will check reserves, pressure losses, and the appropriate configuration. This way, you will receive a reliable recommendation for screw compressors.
