Paradigm - Low Noise Reciprocating Air Compressors 5_7-5hp

larger image

The Gardner Denver™ Paradigm provides the advantages of a reciprocating compressor coupled with the low noise of a rotary screw. Ideal for areas with a low noise requirement, Paradigm can be installed directly within the work environment close to the point-of-use. This eliminates the need for a dedicated room or an outside installation and can save hundreds of feet in piping resulting in reduced pressure drops, ultimately increasing your bottom line.

Blazing a new path in reciprocating compressors, the Gardner Denver Paradigm is a perfect choice for applications with intermittent duty and a low noise requirement. Paradigm delivers powerful performance, easy maintenance, and extremely low noise levels all in one package to provide maximum customer satisfaction. Establish a Paradigm in innovation, quality, reliability, long life and high performance.

Heat Control
The majority of reciprocating compressors’ discharge temperatures can reach a 400° F level or higher. Locating a compressor and motor together in the same cabinet requires a creative heat control solution. The heat from the compressor operation increases the electric motor operating temperature, thus reducing the motor’s service life and long-term reliability. The Paradigm 5 and 7.5 horsepower solution offers two separate cooling circuits with each one pulling cool ambient air. With the electric motor operating in its own isolated area of the package, Paradigm ensures the temperatures outlined by the motor manufacturer are not exceeded. Reliability and quiet operation are the result of this impressive engineering solution.

Vibration Minimization
A one-piece powder coated inner base supports both the compressor and the motor. Rubber vibration isolators separate the inner base from the enclosure for maximum noise and vibration control. The sound attenuating enclosure, made of 16 gauge steel with additional foam insulation, enables the compressor package to run quieter. Additional vibration pads between the enclosure and the tank are added for unmatched quiet operation.
