A 22 kW compressor can be a practical fit for Lubango sites where food processing demand is moving beyond intermittent workshop use into a more regular production pattern.
Typical planning role: a continuous line with multiple pneumatic consumers.
Installations in Lubango should be planned around the actual operating environment. For this mining-linked production and maintenance environment, we normally pay particular attention to air quality, condensate management and filtration selected for the point of use. This forms part of the technical review for the 22 kW Lubango quotation rather than being treated as a standard assumption.
One realistic design case for this page is a replacement project where the existing system is short of pressure during food processing peaks. The 22 kW unit supplies about 3.6 m³/min at a typical 7 bar reference point, but the decision must be checked at the site’s actual pressure and simultaneous demand. For Lubango, the 22 kW recommendation records this item in the equipment and installation schedule.
Configuration priorities for the Lubango air system
01 · Demand
Map the working air profile
For food processing in Lubango, list the equipment behind product handling, packaging, cleaning support and pneumatic automation and separate steady consumers from short peaks. This determines whether 22 kW is a base-load match or only one part of the final system.
02 · Air treatment
Protect the sensitive point of use
The package should address air quality, condensate management and filtration selected for the point of use. A matched dryer and filter train must meet the most sensitive food processing application without adding unnecessary pressure loss. This detail is confirmed during the 22 kW site-planning stage for Lubango.
03 · Control
Choose fixed-speed or VSD from data
Where mining support demand changes through the shift, VSD may reduce unloaded operation. Where demand is stable, fixed-speed can remain the better-value option. The choice should follow a demand profile, not a general rule. In the Lubango quotation, this is matched to the actual operating pattern of the proposed 22 kW system.
Local operating profile
Design priorities for Lubango
Within the Lubango proposal, those conditions are reflected in the supporting equipment selected around the 22 kW compressor.
For this 22 kW page, the strongest proposal is one that links receiver storage, room ventilation, filtration and maintenance access to the food processing process instead of treating them as optional extras. In the Lubango quotation, this is matched to the actual operating pattern of the proposed 22 kW system.

Before we price the machine
Five questions for the Lubango quotation
Does the site have dusty, humid or corrosive conditions that change the filtration plan?
Are there short high-flow events that should be handled by storage rather than extra motor size?
Which tools, machines or valves can operate at the same time?
What is the minimum pressure required at the furthest point of use?
How many hours per shift will the compressor run, and how many shifts are worked?
Three ways to package the 22 kW compressor
Integrate into an existing air station
Supply the compressor for connection to a suitable existing receiver, dryer and distribution system in Lubango. Existing equipment should be checked for capacity and pressure loss first. For the Lubango application, the 22 kW scope states how this requirement will be handled.
Complete production-air package
Combine the 22 kW machine with a reviewed 1 000 L receiver range, refrigeration dryer, pre-filter, coalescing filter and automatic drains for the food processing duty. On the Lubango project, we confirm this specifically for the 22 kW package and the measured duty profile.
Growth and uptime package
Allow connection points, controls and pipe capacity for future mining support demand. Where air loss stops production, evaluate standby capacity or an emergency compressor connection. For the Lubango application, the 22 kW scope states how this requirement will be handled.
Motor size alone does not confirm suitability. Compare usable flow at pressure, duty cycle and air quality for each option. On the Lubango project, we confirm this specifically for the 22 kW package and the measured duty profile.
Questions specific to this 22 kW Lubango brief
Yes. We can quote the equipment, delivery and agreed commissioning scope for Lubango, with ongoing access to service parts, oils, filters and separator elements. Cross-border projects are quoted with the required logistics and documentation clearly defined. On the Lubango project, we confirm this specifically for the 22 kW package and the measured duty profile.
List every air user that can run together, its required pressure and the operating hours. The 22 kW model is rated at about 3.6 m³/min at a typical 7 bar point, but the final choice must allow for pressure, leakage, dryer loss and sensible growth margin for the food processing duty. For Lubango, the 22 kW recommendation records this item in the equipment and installation schedule.
Fixed-speed can suit a stable base load. VSD is normally considered when the food processing demand changes materially through the shift. A simple air-demand profile is the best way to compare energy use rather than choosing VSD automatically. This is one of the checks used to distinguish the 22 kW Lubango package from a generic equipment-only quote.
1 000 L is a practical starting range, but the receiver must be checked against demand peaks, control method and available space. Short events linked to product handling, packaging, cleaning support and pneumatic automation may justify more storage instead of oversizing the compressor. This is one of the checks used to distinguish the 22 kW Lubango package from a generic equipment-only quote.
