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: If the maintenance intervals are adhered to with SCC original parts and oils.

FAQ
Process + Service
We usually deliver standard models up to 75 kW within 5 working days. For special designs or project-specific requirements, we will inform you of the exact delivery time on request or in the quotation. We agree on the placement, scheduling and project-related logistics together in advance.
The installation depends on the installation location, ventilation, power supply and compressed air network. We provide you with clear specifications on the required distances and connections. An authorised service partner will carry out commissioning and instruct the operating personnel.
Maintenance is based on operating hours and operating conditions in accordance with the maintenance schedule. Depending on the version, it may include changing filters and the scheduled inspection and control work as well as oil and oil separators for oil-lubricated versions. This keeps efficiency, operational reliability and availability stable in the long term.
The applicable warranty conditions apply. The specific warranty period and the scope are transparently stated in the offer or the order confirmation. If a 5-year warranty is stated there, this applies in accordance with the scope and conditions. In the event of a warranty claim, we require the serial number as well as proof of maintenance and commissioning (if applicable, further documents in accordance with the warranty conditions).
To design a screw compressor, we need the consumption (m³/min), pressure level, load profile and operating times. Send us this key data and we will check the reserve, pressure losses and suitable configuration. This gives you a reliable recommendation for screw compressors.
