Compressor Technique · Wuxi, Jiangsu
A manufacturing and development campus—with the model's origin kept explicit
Atlas Copco (Wuxi) Compressors is the Wuxi company within the group's Compressor Technique business. Its new campus opened on 14 May 2025, combining compressor manufacturing, research and development, training and customer interaction.
- Company
- 阿特拉斯·科普柯（无锡）压缩机有限公司
- Opening-announcement scale
- About 217,000 m² site area; about 160,000 m² building area.
- Order identity
- Specify the contracting company, exact model/suffix and production origin in the offer.
Three existing product routes are compared below. GA's Wuxi brochure and the ZR localisation announcement identify particular ranges. The broader ZH family needs its own quoted production-site confirmation.
Route 1 · Oil-injected variable-speed screw
GA 7–90 VSD iPM: match changing plant-air demand, then specify treatment
The Wuxi brochure describes a permanent-magnet variable-speed drive with oil-injected screw compression. Use the demand profile and required delivery pressure to select the package.
| Model / pressure | Motor / FAD |
|---|---|
| GA 7 VSD iPM 7 bar(e) | 7.5 kW 25.6–72.7 m³/h |
| GA 22 VSD iPM 7 bar(e) | 22 kW 42.5–239.4 m³/h |
| GA 75 VSD iPM 10 bar(e) | 75 kW 147.2–739.4 m³/h |
FAD: ISO 1217:2009 Annex E; inlet 1 bar absolute and 20°C. Each range belongs to its stated model and pressure.
Route 2 · Water-cooled oil-free screw
ZR 700–900 VSD: retain the pressure row and the cooling-water duty
Atlas Copco's June 2023 announcement identifies local Wuxi production of this range. ZR is water-cooled; ZT is the separate air-cooled designation. The available utilities are part of choosing the package.
50/60 Hz VSD table. ISO 1217:2009 Annex C; inlet 1 bar absolute, 20°C and 0% relative humidity. Confirm actual-site performance and motor/package input in the selected offer.
Before deciding the installation
- Provide cooling-water inlet temperature, available flow/pressure and water quality; agree the heat-rejection route.
- Define minimum/normal/peak demand, standby capacity and the pressure required after drying/distribution.
- For heat recovery, identify the hot-water user and supply/return conditions, with a separate interface and acceptance boundary.
Route 3 · Oil-free centrifugal air
ZH / ZH+: compare continuous and minimum duty on the selected map
ZH 355(+) · two-stage · 50 Hz
| Pressure | FAD / motor |
|---|---|
| 3.5 bar(e) | 5,681 m³/h 355 kW installed motor |
| 4.6 bar(e) | 4,756 m³/h 355 kW installed motor |
ASME PTC 10 / ISO 5389; inlet 1 bar absolute, 35°C, 60% humidity; cooling water 26.7°C.
These units and reference conditions differ from the screw tables. Compare corrected performance at the same site duty, not the largest number printed for each family.
Request the normal and minimum operating map, anti-surge/blow-off behaviour and total package input. Review overnight/partial-production demand, water duty, starting method and standby strategy before fixing station capacity.
ZH centrifugal selection and manufacturing-origin confirmation →Wuxi campus application · October 2025
From a compressor selection to an accepted air station
The campus station report describes ZR VSD + MDG rotary-drum adsorption drying + ER heat recovery, with coordinated optimisation and digital monitoring. This makes the treatment and system boundary visible alongside the compressor.
Air supplied
Set delivered pressure, pressure dew point and particles/moisture/oil limits at a defined sampling point. Include treatment and distribution pressure losses.
Energy measured
Define the station's measurement boundary and operating profile. An assessment of one station does not guarantee another site's annual savings.
Heat used
Connect recovery to a real process/hot-water demand and stated return conditions. Agree scope and commissioning across both systems.
The report attributes the station assessment to the specified Chinese evaluation standard and industry bodies. Obtain the actual offered model's required documents separately; no blanket factory or product certification is inferred here.
Make the technical offer comparable before placing an order
1. Demand and site
Minimum/normal/peak air demand, operating hours, actual suction/ambient conditions, voltage/frequency and room limits. For ZR/ZH, add water conditions and heat rejection.
2. Delivered package
Exact model/suffix, production origin, driver/starting, dryer/filter/receiver/drain scope, controller/plant signals, maintenance and lifting access.
3. Acceptance and support
Selected performance and package power, pressure/air-quality measurement points, required test/witness records, destination documents, commissioning owner and parts/service arrangements.
Confirm current lead time in the offer. The historical localisation announcement describes a past transition, rather than today's delivery promise.
Prepare an Atlas Copco Wuxi RFQQuestions specific to the Wuxi product routes
Does this Wuxi profile establish the origin of every ZH package?
It identifies the Wuxi Compressor Technique company. The GA Wuxi brochure and ZR localisation release cover specific ranges; ask for the manufacturing origin of the exact ZH package in its current offer.
Can I compare GA and ZR flow numbers directly?
The displayed GA examples use m³/h; ZR uses m³/min. Keep the selected pressure and reference conditions, convert units explicitly, and request both selections at the same actual duty.
Does oil-free compression remove the need for a dryer?
It describes the compression process. Moisture, particles and distribution-system conditions still need specified limits, treatment and acceptance sampling. Decide pressure dew point from the process and site requirements.
Does the campus station's assessment certify the quoted machine?
It is a reported assessment of a complete operating station. Obtain the selected model's applicable documents and agree the new station's performance and measurement boundary separately.
