Air compressors for Rail & Transportation industry

Noise pollution is also a very important factor, which becomes decisive in the case of electric vehicles: compressors are generally mounted at human height, and it is therefore essential to reduce noise as much as possible.

In addition, the overall dimensions must be limited: machinery capable of adapting to small and easily accessible spaces is required, so that maintenance activities can be carried out easily and in the shortest possible time.

Furthermore, compressed air is often used for critical systems, such as, for example, the braking system, air suspensions or the opening and closing of doors. Operation must therefore be guaranteed in all conditions and for long periods of time without interruption.

For this reason, sustainable mobility is now a central issue at a global level and the adoption of all technologies capable of reducing energy consumption and preserving the environment, without increasing operating costs, is the obligatory choice of public administrations and companies in the sector.

• 15% energy savings thanks to the rotary vane technology
• excellent investment thanks to the lowest Life Cycle Cost on the market
• reduced maintenance thanks to the absence of ball bearings or thrust bearings, which are inherent in the design of screw compressors and require routine replacement. In applications for electric vehicles, Mattei compressors are available with more than 35,000 hours of operation with original vanes and brass bearings
• compact size that allows perfect integration into small spaces
• low-weight design improves overall battery performance
• easy installation: thanks to the flexibility of the construction design, Mattei compressors can also be positioned on the roof of vehicles or underneath them
• low noise and absence of vibrations thanks to the low rotation speed and the reduced number of moving components. Vane technology ensures safe and silent operation even in the absence of a dedicated compressor enclosure
• reliability and resistance to external environmental conditions, corrosion and scratches
• custom solutions designed and tailored to meet specific needs
• modularity of components to facilitate maintenance operations

Vane technology ensures high quality compressed air, extremely compact size of the pumping unit, low noise level and low weight. All accompanied by an undisputed reliability of the product, in any application condition.
