Advantages of Using Electric powered Screw Compressor（stationary type) VS diesel engine powered screw Compressor( portable type):
Safety & Environment
a. No-Risk of injury from hot parts (Exhaust pipe or Muffler)
b. No Fuel required
c. No ground contamination from diesel spillage
d. The noise would be at least five decibels lower than the Diesel compressor.
e. Do not generate any CO2 emissions.
Size
a. Electric‐Powered Compressors are smaller in size.
b. No requirement for fuel tank
Service
a. Do not feature any removable engine parts.
b. Routine maintenance extended by a factor of four.
C. Easy to maintenance, lower maintenance cost.
Efficiency:
a. Cost of electricity over Diesel with regards to consumption is in the ratio of 1:4.
b. The efficiency of the motor is higher than that of the diesel engine, and it is more stable
c. Electric air compressors are generally fixed, and portable air compressors are mobile and used especially in fields and construction sites.
