Overview
BERG configures direct-drive and belt-driven screw compressors, oil-free screw and scroll compressors, compact stationary systems and high-pressure boosters around free air delivery, pressure, duty cycle, air-quality target and life-cycle priorities.

Key reference values

• Published compressor power range: 5–250 kW
• BSDF screw-compressor pressure range: 7–13 bar
• High-pressure booster solutions: up to 300 bar
• Oil-free compression option: Class 0 for critical air

Product families (summary)

• Direct-drive screw compressors — Variable-speed BSDF systems with 1:1 direct drive (18.5–250 kW). Designed for fluctuating industrial demand.
• Oil-free screw compressors — Air-cooled ZXF and water-injected ZWF technologies for critical Class 0 process air (examples 55–160 / 55–120 kW ranges referenced).
• Stationary air compressors — Compact low-speed BSDK and BSDKF units, options with receiver, canopy and dryer (5–20 kW).
• Booster compressors — BKB piston boosters for engineered high-pressure systems (solutions up to 300 bar).
• Oil-free scroll compressors — Compact oil-free scroll solutions for lower-flow clean-air, quiet operation and modular capacity (product range coming soon).
• KOMPBERG® BS belt-drive screw — Oil-injected belt-drive screw compressors designed for robust economical industrial compressed air (product range coming soon).

Control & life-cycle engineering (selection guidance)
Operating pattern | Control approach | Primary selection data | Engineering objective
Stable, continuous base load | Fixed-speed or base-load machine | Hours near full load | Efficient operation at a stable duty point
Wide, frequent demand variation | Variable-speed compressor | Measured load histogram | Match output while limiting unloaded operation
Multiple compressors | Sequencing or master control | Machine sizes and pressure bands | Run the most efficient combination
Critical production | N+1 or duty/standby | Allowed interruption and service windows | Maintain supply during maintenance or failure
Short demand peaks | Receiver + control optimisation | Peak volume and duration | Reduce cycling and pressure fluctuation
High annual heat load | Heat-recovery integration | Heat sink, temperatures and operating hours | Reuse recoverable compressor heat

Sizing checklist

• Measured average, minimum and peak free air demand
• Required pressure at the point of use
• Annual operating hours and load profile
• ISO 8573-1 particle, water and oil classes
• Ambient range, altitude and installation location
• Cooling air or cooling-water availability
• Electrical supply and starting constraints
• Future demand, redundancy and allowed downtime
• Noise, footprint and service-access limits
• Heat-recovery, controls and monitoring requirements

Technical FAQ (concise answers)

• How to size an industrial air compressor? — Measure average/min/peak free air demand, required point-of-use pressure, account for treatment and network losses, duty cycle, future growth and redundancy. Compare free air delivery at the selected pressure.
• When use a variable-speed screw compressor? — Useful when demand changes frequently within the compressor’s efficient control range; evaluate against fixed-speed and master-control options.
• Do I need an oil-free compressor? — Choose oil-free when process contamination risk or validation requires it; otherwise an oil-injected compressor plus correct treatment may meet ISO 8573-1.
• What is the benefit of direct drive? — A 1:1 direct drive removes gearbox/belt stages, reducing transmission losses and wear components; overall efficiency depends on air end, motor, controls and operating point.
• When is a booster required? — A booster raises an existing inlet pressure to a higher process pressure; selection must confirm inlet gas, inlet pressure, outlet pressure, flow, duty and cooling.
• Can BERG supply a complete compressed air station? — Yes. BERG coordinates compressors, receivers, dryers, filters, condensate management, controls and distribution around operating profile and air-quality targets.
