For over 50 years Hydrovane has been a market leader in rotary sliding vane compressors, which are proven to be reliable, versatile, powerful and cost effective.
Hydrovane rotary vane compressor technology is an incredibly versatile piece of engineering, offering longevity and resistance to challenging environmental conditions for unusual applications.
The possibilities are endless when it comes to supplying reliable, clean, and pulse-free air to a specific application outside the standard industrial arena, where other compressor technologies do not offer a viable solution.Custom Solutions may be related to the environment in which the compressed air is produced and used; an example being high ambient temperature applications within foundries or aluminium smelting plants, or a bespoke build specification.
Hydrovane has developed proven solutions for three specialist compressor applications, these being:
- Transit* : Air System Modules (ASM) to the international rail and mass transit industries (Metro, tram, bus, etc)
- Gas Boosting* : Sweet, sour and bio gases
- Snow Production : Snow cannons based on the water atomisation principle
