HW 1500-AC Water Cooled Compressors

The HW 1500-AC is a water-cooled high-pressure air compressor engineered for the hardest environments where standard air cooling fails. It is the preferred choice for the Navy (surface ships and submarines) and civil defense applications. With a 4-stage design and a massive 1400 liters per minute capacity, it offers uncompromised performance. The unit distinguishes itself with seawater cooling capabilities, MIL-spec impact resistance, and a fully pressurized lubrication system, ensuring operational continuity in the most critical maritime missions.

Key Features

Extreme Environment Cooling: Designed specifically for environments where air cooling is insufficient, this unit features a robust Fresh/Seawater Cooling System ideal for naval and heavy industrial use.

Military-Grade Impact Resistance: Built to withstand severe conditions, with standard compliance to the MIL-S-901D Impact Test, making it suitable for surface ships and submarines.

High-Pressure Marine Power: Delivers a powerful output of 1400 l/min at a working pressure of 275 bar, driven by a 30 kW (40 hp) motor.

Corrosion Defense: Equipped with stainless steel intercooler heat exchangers and cathodic protection to prevent corrosion from seawater exposure.

Full System Visibility: Features comprehensive instrumentation including stage pressure gauges, oil pressure gauges, and cooling water pressure gauges for detailed monitoring.

Advanced Lubrication: Unlike splash-lubricated models, this heavy-duty unit utilizes a pressurized oil system with an oil pump, oil filter, and oil pressure switch.
