Project Description
QUANTIMA
Oil Free Centrifugal Compressors
Quantima
Quantima is a completely oil-free compressor. Using Quantima eliminates all possible risks associated with oil and silicone contamination. It is designed and manufactured to give compressed air users complete peace of mind and provides 100% air purity, certified ISO 8573-1 (2010) Class 0 and silicone-free!
The CompAir Quantima series delivers significant benefits over traditional technology. Offering outstanding energy efficiency, reliability and low environmental impact, Quantima also offers low noise levels at 69 db(A) and a physical footprint around 25% smaller than any comparable product in the market.

What makes Quantima® special?
Quantima’s patented Q-drive compression and motor assembly has just one moving part and operates with the rotor spinning in a magnetic field at up to 76,000 rpm.
- Superb efficiency due to no gearbox and no contact parts
- Variable speed technology minimising off-load running
- Outstanding energy savings of up to 25% are easily achievable
- No performance degradation
- Lowest off-load power consumption of just 2.5% of full load power, equal to 7 kW for a 300 kW compressor
- Smallest physical footprint
- Lowest noise levels of just 69 dB(A)
Advanced Quantima® Technology
Advanced Quantima® Technology The patented Q-drive motor incorporates an asynchronous induction design and operates at high speeds to avoid the need for a conventional gearbox. This eliminates costly losses and means that the compressor does not require any oil at all.
The motor and direct drive compression assembly incorporates magnetic bearings to provide stable control, both axially and radially of the rotor shaft. The shaft is supported in a magnetic field which means that there is no contact and no wear, ensuring reliable operation and long life without performance degradation.
In addition to Quantima’s patented Q-drive technology which ensures reliable operation and longer life without performance degradation, these compressors incorporate a variety of innovative design features, delivering the ultimate efficiencies.
Simplicity. The ultimate in ‘peace of mind’.
Less is more… Quantima is special for what it doesn’t have:
- No gearbox
- No oil
- No oil-laden parts
- No contact
- No wear
Perfect control and performance
The specially developed Q-master compressor controller provides comprehensive control and protection of the compressor’s operation. It incorporates a touch screen panel as well as intuitive navigation and menu structure for easy-to-use operation. It includes sophisticated control methodology and surge calibration, designed to minimise energy consumption.
