THE SULLAIR LS-20 (100), LS-20S & LS-25 SERIES.
RELIABILITY, PERFORMANCE, AND A PROVEN DESIGN.
Continuous duty
Sullair Series LS compressors have
established themselves as outstanding in
the 100 to 200 horsepower range. These
compressors offer the inherent reliability of
Sullairs rotary screw design and also
provide continuous-duty performance.
Components of every Sullair compressor
have been carefully selected to assure
complete reliability.
Rotary screw dependability
These LS models use a single-stage rotary
screw air end, featuring Sullairs rugged
bearing design: tapered roller bearings on
the discharge end and cylindrical roller
bearings on the inlet, for high load-carry-
ing capacity. On standard models, the air
end is warranted for a period of 5 years
(1)
.
On 24KTmodels, the air end is
warranted for 10 years
(2)
.
(1) Sullairs 5-year warranty includes motor,
air/fluid receiver and cooler(s).
(2) Sullairs 24KT warranty includes 5-years on the motor,
air/fluid receiver and cooler(s).
Lower maintenance costs
As a result of Sullairs rugged, time-proven
design, the LS Series requires only mini-
mum maintenance for optimum perform-
ance. There are no troublesome belts or
expensive bull gear arrangements to wear
out or replace.
Broad operating range
LS-20 (100), LS-20S and LS-25 compres-
sors, which are fluid lubricated and cooled,
are available in 100 to 200 horsepower,
with capacities from 344 to 1000 acfm and
pressure ratings of 100 to 175 psig.

Sullubeis a biodegradable fluid that is
recyclable. Low levels of Sullube carried
over in condensate may be accepted for
direct sewer disposal without additional
separation/equipment. Contact local
authorities for approval.
8,000-hour fluid
Because Sullube can operate for three full
shifts for one year, labor related to fluid
change-out and associated downtime costs
during this time are virtually eliminated.
Non-varnishing
Because of its unique chemical
formulation, Sullube will not varnish.
Longer fluid life
Unique additive package maintains desired
characteristics over a wide range of oper-
ating conditions for extended periods.
5-year warranty
The EQP III motor is warranted for
5 years.
Improved energy conservation
These premium efficiency motors are
designed and manufactured in the U.S.A.
to meet North Americas ever increasing
need for improved energy conservation
and product reliability. Toshiba EQP III
motors are standard on the LS-20 (100),
LS-20S and LS-25. Motors are direct-
coupled to eliminate the problems of belt
maintenance and energy loss.
Inverter grade insulation system
This new insulation system, designed
to meet NEMA MG1 Part 31.40.4.2
standards, provides even more energy
savings.
Rugged construction
Motor has a cast iron frame and bearing
brackets, stainless steel nameplate with
bearing data, and lip seal/slinger bearing
protection. NEMA frame is standard.

Although the principle of rotary screw
compression remains the same, Sullair is

and compressor packages.
No loss of capacity or efficiency
Sullair air ends have only two moving
parts: the asymmetrical profile rotors.
Contact occurs only on a lubricated
pitchline, so wear is virtually eliminated.
As a result, Sullair compressors do not
lose capacity or efficiency.
Longer air end life
Controlled pressure
lubrication and BFR (Bearing Fluid
Reservoirs) assure a reliable supply of
fluid to rotating elements.
Lower operating costs
Discharge port matches ratios of volume
and operating pressure for maximum effi-
ciency. Axial air inlet avoids preheating
inlet air for further savings.
If your Sullair compressor requires a
replacement air end, Sullair will provide
one with updated components featuring
the latest technology. The replacement air
end is factory warranted and is easy to
install. If the replacement occurs during
the warranty period, labor is also included.

There is no foreseeable end to the useful
life of 24KT fluid, when used according
to Sullair recommendations. Fluid-related
maintenance costs are drastically reduced.
24KT Fluid extends compressor
component life
24KT is chemically inert and does not
break down or varnish. It works clean.
Filters, separators and coolers will not
plug. Bearings last longer. Associated
labor costs are also reduced.
Compressor operates at peak
performance
Constant viscosity insures excellent
lubrication to all rotating parts.

Part-load Capacity Control Comparisons
A rotary screw compressor with spiral control valve reduces
power consumption as the compressor load drops. More impor-
tantly, it illustrates the substantial power savings at part load
when compared to other capacity control systems.

An outstanding optional feature of
LS compressors is Sullairs unique
capacity control system, which consists
of a spiral valve and an inlet butterfly
valve. This system delivers greatly
improved part-load performance,
especially when compared with
compressors having suction throttling
or load/no load controls.
Compressed air volume is varied
by rotating the spiral valve, which opens
and closes by-pass ports in the stator,
and returns air to suction rather than
compressing it. By matching compressor
displacement with output need, this
energy-saving system uses up to 17%
less power.

Optional Remote Cooler
The remote cooler
package gives you the
flexibility of locating the
cooler away from the
compressor. Since it is a
separate module, it is
easier to clean than if it
were machine mounted.
