Details & Features
IK 120 compressor block
The BAUER IK 120 series compressor block has been designed for the most demanding professional applications. Dimensioned for more than 30,000 operating hours, it has proven its worth in thousands of application scenarios.
With their outstanding surface hardness, plasma-nitrided and plateau-honed cylinders are able to achieve extremely long service lives combined with low energy consumption and reliable oil lubrication of cylinder surfaces.
Furthermore, wear-resistant piston rings in the final stage minimize running costs. The compressor block is both efficient and reliable. Stainless steel cooling ribs on the cooler in the final stage provide the basis for particularly efficient cooling and thus very long service life.
Super-Silent version
The Super-Silent cladding, which is installed as standard, impresses with its low noise level for working environments in which noise is a key concern and flexible installation options.

P 31 filter system
When used in conjunction with original BAUER filter cartridges, the P 31 filter system with integrated oil and water separator and pressure retention check valve can be relied upon for breathing air treatment conforming to DIN EN 12021¹. A type-tested and sealed final pressure safety valve enables particularly high levels of operational safety to be achieved. 600 m³ of air can be treated.
¹ If the units are maintained and installed correctly as described in the operating instructions or user manual and if the concentration of CO2 in the intake air does not exceed the values specified in the applicable standard for breathing air.
Compressor control
The electric control with additional monitoring electronics switches the compressor off automatically when the final pressure is reached in the system, measures operating hours, displays the current operating status and is equipped with a phase monitoring.
B-DRAIN automatic condensate drain
The automatic condensate drain automatically removes the condensate that forms during compression (water/oil mixture) from the intermediate separators and the final separator and collects it in a condensate vessel.
The newly developed and patented B-DRAIN automatic condensate drain uses individually controlled solenoid valves to ensure reliable, automatic condensate removal from the compressor separators.
The innovative design enables condensate to be drained in a gentle, controlled manner while minimising the pressure drop. This saves energy and helps to increase the efficiency of the compressor unit. At the same time, the new B-DRAIN is much quieter than conventional solutions.
A condensate vessel with 40% more capacity is integrated in the housing of the MINI-VERTICUS resp. VERTICUS. The compressor control monitors the fill level and informs the operator in good time if the condensate needs to be emptied.
Filling hose
High-quality UNIMAM high-pressure filling hoses made from food-safe and long-life hose material make for flexible and safe handling. Swivel hose connections enable the filling valve to be connected to the breathing air cylinder quickly, easily and safely.
Motor rocker
The integration of a motor rocker with V-belt tensioner means that the tension of the V-belt no longer has to be adjusted.
