Kaeser FSD Rotary Screw Compressor Series, 250-315 kW

Description

Central-station screw compressors for 250 and 315 kW

The Kaeser FSD series serves large compressed air stations with up to 61.4 m³/min at pressures up to 15 bar. Two sizes are listed, FSD 475 with a 250 kW motor and FSD 575 with 315 kW, each as a fixed-speed machine and as an SFC machine with frequency converter. The package is built around a single-stage SIGMA PROFILE airend with direct 1:1 drive, a SIGMA CONTROL controller with a capacitive touchscreen, and a triple separation system in the fluid tank. Compressed air leaves through a DN 150 connection after aftercooling and a centrifugal separator with a zero-loss ECO-DRAIN.

How the FSD runs and what it recovers

Electronic Thermal Management controls fluid temperature to avoid condensation and keep it as low as possible. Dynamic control calculates run-on times from the winding temperature, reducing idle running, and the controller supports base-load sequencing of two compressors, a timer for compressor functions and several control modes. Optional internal heat recovery can feed a water circuit, and the water-cooled version can use a plate-type or shell-and-tube exchanger with a seawater-resistant version offered as an option. At this size the foundation, ventilation and piping for a 3.5 by 2.1 m, 6.6 to 7.3 tonne machine need early planning.

FSD within the Kaeser range

Between the ESD and the HSD, the FSD covers the middle of the large-station range. Brochure headline ranges are listed below.

Kaeser series Flow rate, m3/min Pressure, bar
ESD up to 47.2 up to 15
FSD up to 61.4 up to 15
HSD 8 to 89 5.5 to 15

Selecting an FSD

Compare the delivery at your working pressure, 37.63 or 47.57 m³/min at 10 bar for the two fixed-speed sizes, with the base-load and trim split in the station. Confirm voltage, cooling medium, available space and the control interface. Seven Star LLC, an independent supplier in Muscat, quotes the exact variant. The brochure is attached and other machines are under Compressors.

About brand

Kaeser Kompressoren is a German manufacturer of compressors, blowers and compressed air systems. Carl Kaeser Sr. established the company as a machine workshop in Coburg, Germany, on 27 June 1919, and the first reciprocating compressor followed in 1948. Today the family-owned company covers rotary screw and reciprocating compressors, blowers, vacuum packages, air treatment and portable compressors.

Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier in Muscat. We list Kaeser compressors, blowers and air treatment equipment for industrial buyers in Oman and the GCC.

Kaeser product series

Rotary screw compressors on this site include the ASD, BSD, CSD(X), DSD, ESD and FSD series from 18.5 kW up to 315 kW, using the SIGMA PROFILE airend and SIGMA CONTROL 2 controller, plus the CSG-2, DSG-2 and FSG-2 oil-free screw compressors. ASV, BSV and CSV rotary screw vacuum packages and CBS and HBS rotary screw blowers complete the machinery side.

Air treatment covers SECOTEC TA and TC refrigeration dryers, DC and i.DC heatless desiccant dryers, KF compressed air filters and ACT activated carbon adsorbers for oil-vapour removal.

Where Kaeser equipment is used

Factory and instrument air in manufacturing and process plants, oil-free air for food, pharmaceutical and electronics production, aeration and process air in wastewater treatment, and vacuum for packaging and conveying.

Ordering Kaeser equipment: what we need

Send the free air delivery, working pressure, ambient temperature and the required air quality class, together with the supply voltage and frequency. For replacements give the model and serial number from the nameplate, so the right Kaeser model and options can be confirmed before an offer is issued.
