Lower cost of ownership

Atlas Copco oil-free technology reduces expenditures in four ways: by avoiding expensive filter replacements, cutting maintenance costs and costs of treating oily condensate, and avoiding the costs of extra energy needed to combat pressure drop in filters.

These costs, although not apparent at the time of purchase, are very high and contribute substantially to the total cost of ownership.

Moreover, as Atlas Copco’s oil-free air compressors eliminate the risk of a contaminated end-product, production downtime and damaged reputation, CLASS 0 compressors are well worth the investment.
