GII CENTURBO™ COMPRESSOR
COMPRESSOR DIRECT DRIVE SYSTEM
The MECO GII is the only true direct drive system on the market.Other compressors use intermediate couplings to connect the compressors
to the motor, which requires alignment, additional bearings, and dual circulating oil systems as well as external cooling fans and motors.
The impeller is mounted directly on the motor's shaft, so there is no alignment necessary. The compressor motor housing is water-cooled
and the bearings are air-cooled with only oil for lubrication. The GII size and weight means there is less torque
on the motor when starting up and less wear and tear due to imbalance.
COMPRESSOR REMOVAL
The GII can be completely replaced in less than two hours if necessary with minimal interruption in service.
The compressor is integrally mounted, eliminating the need for excessive ductwork and gasketing.
