Overview

The Sperre Classic is the world’s most renowned maritime compressor. It has been perfected in demanding working conditions over decades. No wonder it is the most frequently chosen compressor on the world’s oceans.

Benefits

Model HL2/105A is a two stage 90º V-compressor.

Cylinders and compressed air coolers are air-cooled. Cooling air is supplied by a well-dimensioned fan.

Bearings and cylinders walls are splash lubricated.

The compressor and motor are normally supplied mounted together on a foundationand connected by means of a heavy-duty flexible coupling.

Both electrical and diesel engine driven versions are available.
