Description COMPRESSOR The Vilter Single Screw Compressor is a positive displacement, capacity and volume controlled, oil fl ooded, rotary compressor which uses a single main screw intermeshed by two opposing gate rotors. Gas compression occurs when the individual fi ngers of each gate rotor sweep through the grooves, or fl utes, of the main screw as the screw rotates. Compression occurs from the time the screw fl ute is fi rst closed off by the gate rotor fi nger, until the time when the screw

Description The Vilter compressors feature the exclusive Parallex™ Slide System, which consists of a pair of slides for each gate rotor assembly. These two independently operated slides are referred to as the capacity slide and the vol- ume ratio slide. On the suction end of the screw, the capacity slide moves to vary the timing of the beginning of the compression process. With the slide moved all the way out to the suction end of the screw (the 100% position), the compression process begi

However a sound foundation maintains motor alignment and proper elevation, and is therefore required. Provided are recommendations for the foundation and anchoring of the compressor unit. The Vilter foundation sup- ports the entire operating weight of the unit and is suitable for years of continuous duty. Included are specifi cations for concrete
