MSA AUER High Pressure
Breathing Air Compressors
MSA is introducing a comprehensive range
of high pressure breathing air compressors
for both the firefighting and diving market.
There are a great variety of models horizontal, vertical, portable and mobile with a
charging capacity from 160 up till 450 liter
per minute.
All compressors together with their air
purification system meet the most stringent
breathing air standards (EN 12021).
The different models are available with
electric motor drive as well as petrol or diesel
driven engines.
No compromise has been made to ruggedness and durability, making the compressors
suitable for the toughest duties.
The specially designed low operation speed
allows continuous and reliable operation.
The uniquely designed high
pressure cylinder valves of the
HP-compressor have a 6000 hr
operation guarantee.
All moving components of
the breathing air compressor
blocks are electronically
balanced to run smoothly.
The vertical models 260 and 450
have highly efficient noise
suppressing cabinets and are
among the most silent compressors on the market.
The last stage has a real genuine
piston which is lubricated by a
low pressure (1,5 bar) oil pump.
The attractive Low Noise
compressors require little floor
space and are very user friendly;
all controls are at the most
convenient operating height.
The newly introduced ECC electronic operating and monitoring
system makes operating even
more convenient.
Air purifying takes place via
the high capacity molecular
sieve/activated coal filter with
an average service life of
900 – 1100 m3.
Convenient cylinder filling
systems are either separately
mounted as a wall panel or
integrated in the compressor.
The filling-panels can be
equipped with self-bleeding
filling valves with hoses.

The compressor blocks:
The 3-stage 260 and 450 compressor blocks have 3 cylinders
each equipped with uniquely
designed oversized coaxial
inlet – outlet valves, with one
valve per cylinder.
Safety valves at each stage,
a genuine high pressure piston
with piston rings, steel fittings
and stainless steel piping,
large volume micro intake filter,
oversized axial fan with large
inter- and after-coolers.
Oil- and water-separators after
each stage, low-noise automatic
condensate drain, end pressure
safety valve and idle running
start device.
Air Quality Supervision
Control (Option)
The constant independent
electronic digital air quality
control system is equipped with
a permanent sensor separately
mounted in the high pressure
outlet.
The actual humidity content of
the compressed air is constantly
displayed.
The H-P outlet is equipped with
a one-way valve to prevent
humidity from entering into the
Air Quality Monitor during nonoperation of the compressor.
Three different LED alarm indicators in control panel:
green:
compressed air quality
according to the quality
standards
yellow: first alarm, recommendation to replace the
filter cartridge
red:
filter cartridge is
saturated, compressor
stops automatically*
The digital display is continuously showing the air humidity
in the compressed air during
operation.
*if necessary the automatic stop device of
the Air Quality Monitor can be by-passed
for a short period.
Electric components:
• E-motor, 3 phase, 400 V*, IP54
(other voltages on request)
• automatic star-delta switch
and emergency switch off
2
• automatic drain timers and
hour counter, automatic end
pressure switch-off device,
factory set at 330 bar.
Housing and mounted
accessories:
The HP low-noise compressors
have an extra fan on the
electric motor. The cooling air
flow is diverted 8 x 90° and cools
every part of the compressor
extensively whilst at the same
time the sound of the compressor is efficiently suppressed.
The housing, made of epoxy
powder coated steel-plate, is service-friendly and allows easy and
quick access to the compressor
block.
The filter holder is mounted outside the cabinet to allow quick
change of the filter cartridges.
The high capacity filter cartridges with activated carbon in
combination with a molecular
sieve assure long service life.
All compressors are equipped
with an hour counter, as well as
with a liquid filled pressure
gauge and safety valve off at
each stage.
A great variety options are
available, e. g.:
humidity control, ECC electronic
computer control, oil pressure
control, 3rd stage temperature
control and an extensive
program of filling panels and
accessories.
