1500 to 5000 psi Compressors Water Cooled (5000 Series)
The 4-stage water-cooled high pressure compressors of the SAUER 5000 series are renowned for their excellent reliability and extremely low noise emissions and vibrations. The compact design of the vertical crankshaft makes the compressors easy to maintain and allows complete balancing of inertial forces.
Outstanding characteristics:
- Vertical construction – full compensation for free inertial forces, even the slightest vibration
- Replaceable cooler inserts in suspended configuration
- Very low piston speed for reduced vibrations and sound profile
- Dry liners – no seal between oil, water and air areas
- Heavy duty, rigid flange connection between motor and compressor
Every compressors comes with:
- Long operating life with guaranteed spare parts availability (at least 25 years) from stock

- Operating Pressure: 1500 – 5000 psi
- Flow Rate: 27 – 89 SCFM
- Required Power: 20.4 to 75.1 hp
- Stages/Cylinders: 4/4
- Gas/Medium: Air, Nitrogen
