Your advantages with STORM
- Ideal for changing compressed air requirements: Thanks to the integrated speed control, the STORM compressor adapts continuously to the current air requirement. This means that only as much compressed air is generated as is actually needed. This reduces unnecessary idle times and lowers energy consumption in the long term. The compressor works particularly efficiently in partial load operation – a decisive advantage over conventional systems.
- High energy efficiency in partial load operation: Many compressors lose efficiency at low loads. The STORM compressor, on the other hand, uses its speed-controlled technology to operate economically even at partial load. As a result, companies benefit from significantly lower energy costs and an overall improvement in operating efficiency.
- Quiet operation for a pleasant working environment: Another advantage is the particularly quiet operation at low load. This ensures a pleasant background noise level at the workplace and makes the STORM compressor ideal for environments where noise reduction plays an important role.
- Gentle soft start and low current peaks: The integrated soft start enables a gentle start-up of the motor and significantly reduces current peaks. This protects electrical components and ensures more stable operation of the entire system. At the same time, the load on the power grid is reduced.
- Longer service life and increased operational reliability: Thanks to the gentle operation and intelligent partial load control, mechanical components are subjected to less stress. This leads to an extended motor service life and increases the reliability of the entire system. Companies benefit from lower maintenance costs and higher availability.
- Low energy costs: The IE4 permanent magnet motor ensures high efficiency and optimum power output – especially in the partial load range, where many compressors waste energy.
- Fewer mechanical losses: The direct-drive compressor stage transmits power without detours. This increases efficiency and reduces operating costs.
- Space-saving installation: The compact design requires significantly less footprint than comparable systems. This makes the STORM suitable for tight technical rooms, inner-city locations or production areas with limited space.
- Plannable maintenance, high availability: Long maintenance intervals for oil filters, air filters and oil separator elements lower running costs and increase operational reliability.
- Transparency at a glance: The SCC control unit clearly displays all relevant operating data, including pressure, temperature, maintenance status and running times.
- STORM compressor – Attractive price with reliable performance: The STORM compressor impresses with a particularly attractive price, offering an economical solution for industrial compressed air supply. Despite the lower investment costs, companies receive a powerful and reliable system that can be flexibly integrated into a wide range of applications. (The focus is on an optimum price-performance ratio, while the STRONG and STRONG 2S variants are available for applications requiring even higher energy efficiency.)
- 5-year free warranty: Subject to compliance with maintenance intervals using original SCC parts and oils.

Industrial Application
In practice, compressed air must be available where space and accessibility are limited. The STORM is designed for compact installation, good maintenance access and demand-oriented performance.
- Workshops & trades: Compact installation close to the point of use with clear operating times.
- Production halls: Supply of machines and lines with changing load profiles.
- Technical rooms/utility buildings: Flexible installation thanks to low noise emissions.
- Confined spaces: When footprint is scarce but performance remains a requirement.

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.
