ScanTech Offshore’s ST3100 air compressors are the world’s only air compressors designed specifically for big bubble curtain projects.
Air compressors designed for big bubble curtains
After refinement and much testing, ScanTech Offshore developed the stackable ST3100, a 20ft CSC / DNV2.7-1 containerised air compressor with a Caterpillar engine and original radiator technology that can deliver 3100cfm and capable of working pressures of up to 200 PSI, providing the air required to create a bubble curtain that reduces noise by up to 90%.
The benefits of the ST3100 air compressor
The ST3100 delivers more than double the power compared to traditional air compressors, whilst taking up half the footprint, even when equipment is not stacked. When stacked (as per the design) the footprint savings are much greater providing up to 3-4 times more compressed air on the same footprint as some of the alternative solutions available in the market.
The ST3100 engines
CAT engines were selected as they offer Stage V / EPA Tier Four Final emission standards – required for compliance in both the European & US markets. There is also no need for additives, meaning no storage of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) on a vessel.
