CENELEC EN60034-6 – Standard for Safety for Rotating Electrical Machines –
Functional Evaluation of Insulation Systems – General Guidelines
The GII Centurbo™ Compressor is exceptionally lightweight, quiet and clean, with features designed at enhancing efficiency. It is exceptionally quiet at less than 80 decibels. The GII sets a new standard for variable output that is designed to vary with your demand in order to reduce starts and stops and improve energy efficiency. It uses 1/3 less parts than other industrial compressors, which increase its reliability substantially. An advanced lubrication system uses only air and an intermittent mist of oil to cool and lubricate the bearings. No more storing, circulating, filtering and changing large quantities of oil.
