15 HP 16 Bar SJ Screw Air Compressor

The SJ RF15 15 HP 16 Bar Screw Air Compressor is designed for high-pressure industrial applications where compressed air is required beyond standard operating ranges. Built with rotary screw technology, it delivers stable and continuous high-pressure air suitable for precision manufacturing and process-critical systems.

At 16 bar operating pressure, this compressor delivers approximately 40 CFM (1.13 m³/min).

• High-pressure output up to 16 bar for specialized applications

• Stable and continuous airflow suitable for precision processes

• Designed for process-critical and high-pressure systems

• Heavy-duty construction for long operational reliability

• Compatible with advanced air treatment systems (dryer + multi-stage filtration required)

• Used in sheet metal fabrication (MS, SS, aluminum cutting)

• Compressed air acts as assist gas:

  • removes molten metal from cutting zone

  • protects laser optics

  • improves cutting quality and speed

• Industry shift:

  • pressure increased from 8–10 bar → 13 bar → 16 bar standard

• Requirement:

  • clean, dry, oil-free air (critical for lens protection)

• CNC laser cutting lines

• Sheet metal processing plants

• Fabrication workshops using fiber laser systems

• High pressure required to:

  • maintain cutting efficiency

  • reduce slag/dross formation

  • ensure clean edge finish

• Used in:

  • beverage manufacturing plants

  • FMCG packaging lines

• Function:

  • pre-blowing air stage

  • auxiliary pneumatic operations

• Note:

  • full bottle blowing typically requires higher pressure (25–40 bar)

  • 16 bar used in pre-stage / support systems

• High-force pneumatic actuators

• Industrial clamping systems

• Precision cleaning and air-jet applications

• High-pressure testing systems

• Leak detection systems

• Intermittent heavy-duty pneumatic tools

• Model: SJ RF15

• Power: 15 HP / 11 kW

• Capacity: 40 CFM / 1.13 m³/min

• Pressure: 16 Bar / 232 PSI

• Compressor Type: Fixed Speed Rotary Screw

This 16 bar configuration is suitable only for:

• laser cutting systems

• high-pressure precision applications

• process-specific industrial use cases

Not suitable for general factory air systems.
