Ingersoll Rand unveils energy efficient MSG® Turbo-Air® 2000 Centrifugal Compressor in India

Ingersoll MSG Turbo-Air 2000 Centrifugal Compressor

Ingersoll Rand launches its new generation of MSG® Turbo-Air® 2000 Centrifugal Compressor for the Indian market which has the capability to cater flow capacity from 505 CFM to 1700 CFM with pressure range from 3.5 Barg to 10 Barg. A three-stage compression makes it the best in class and most efficient compressor of its range. The compressor will be packaged locally from the company’s Naroda manufacturing facility in Gujarat and will allow companies across sectors such as manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, food & beverages, textiles, automotive, agriculture, power, etc to achieve improved operating efficiencies with upto 20% energy savings and reduced operating life-cycle costs.

The launch of MSG® Turbo-Air® 2000 Centrifugal Compressor is part of Ingersoll Rand’s efforts to address the growing requirements of its customers to increase productivity and focus on furthering energy efficiency. As per industry reports centrifugal compressors are proven to have a long mean time between failures (MTBF) and also show a strong availability of 99.7%. With the new compressor, Ingersoll Rand aims to raise the bar in energy efficiency and reliability, not sacrificing one to obtain the other.

Speaking on the launch, Amar Kaul, Chairman & Managing Director, Ingersoll Rand India Ltd. said, “Indian businesses, today, are increasingly looking at improved output while keeping the cost and environmental impact in control. Turbo-Air 2000 has been designed to cater to all these concerns while ensuring ease of operations and high reliability attached with Ingersoll Rand products.
