The FS-Curtis NxHE Series two-stage rotary screw air compressors are heavily
relied upon in industry for their legendary reliability and highly energy efficient
operation. NxHE splits the compression process into two stages and removes
heat of compression in between. The result is less input horsepower required to
generate the same flow as single stage. Splitting the compression process over
two stages also reduces the compression ratio, which results in lower thrust
loads on the bearings and longer air end life. NxHE two-stage compressors
offer unparalled energy efficiency in a reliable long life industrial air compressor
- making it ideal for high flow base load industrial applications.
More acfm per horsepower than single stage equals power savings, and the
ability to select a smaller compressor
Lower specific power/higher Isentropic Efficiency than single stage equals
power saving
Two-stage air end life is considerably longer than its single stage counterpart
due to reduced thrust loads on bearings (lower compression ratio in each stage)
Over / Under design allows for inter-stage cooling which removes heat of
compression and improves overall efficiency
Independent bearing lubrication system delivers oil to critical wear points
to extend air end life
