tow behind screw air compressor for downhole drilling

With its compact and highly maneuverable design, the tow behind screw air compressor enables quick transfers between sites and simple operation and maintenance, making it indispensable for modern industrial operations.

Working Principle of Tow Behind Screw Air Compressor

• Screw Compression Technology: Air is drawn in through the suction port and compressed between two intermeshing screw rotors inside the screw mainframe. The compressed air is then delivered through the exhaust pipe to serve external equipment, providing continuous, pulsation-free airflow for operations requiring a steady air supply.
• Large Rotor & Low Speed Design: Reduces friction and wear, enhances stability, and extends service life.
• Two-Stage Compression: Improves compression efficiency and reduces power consumption, resulting in more energy-saving air supply.
• Intelligent Control System: Automatically adjusts engine speed to match air consumption, offers multiple working modes (single, double, multiple), and optimizes efficiency and fuel use.

Main Features

1. High mobility & compact design: Towed structure enables fast relocation between worksites, perfect for dynamic environments.
2. Extreme environment resistance: Reliable performance in high/low temperatures, strong dust, and high altitude conditions.
3. Energy-saving & efficient: Two-stage screw compression maximizes air output per energy unit, minimizing operating costs.
4. Long-term durability: Screw host comes with a 5-year or 10,000-hour warranty, ensuring stable operation and minimizing maintenance frequency.
5. Simple maintenance: Large-capacity fuel tank and triple fuel filtration system reduce refueling needs and maintenance complexity, extending operational cycles.
