15 HP 16 Bar SJ Variable Speed Screw Air Compressor

The SJ RV15 15 HP 16 Bar VFD Screw Air Compressor is designed for high-pressure industrial applications where airflow demand is variable and precise pressure control is critical. Equipped with Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) technology, it dynamically adjusts motor speed based on real-time air consumption, ensuring energy-efficient operation and stable high-pressure output.

At 16 bar operating pressure, this compressor delivers 40 CFM, making it suitable for small-to-mid capacity fiber laser cutting systems and precision high-pressure industrial processes.
