| By Mary Page Bailey and Gerald Ondrey

The CSD series of screw compressors (photo) has been redesigned to improve efficiency over a wider range of flows and pressures. With five models ranging from 60 to 125 hp, new airend designs and IE4 Super Premium Efficiency motors provide the CSD compressors with even better specific performance (kW/100 ft3/min) to deliver up to 25% more air than competitors, according to the manufacturer. Capacities of the CSD series range from 261 to 693 ft3/min and pressures from 80 to 217 psig. — Kaeser Compressors, Inc., Fredericksburg, Va.
