22 kW Screw Air Compressor for Matola, Mozambique

In Matola, the right 22 kW package depends on whether the site needs steady base-load air, short peaks, or a mix of both across the working day.

Typical planning role: a continuous line with multiple pneumatic consumers.

A practical 22 kW duty for Matola

The Matola specification should connect the compressor room to the production requirement. Where product handling, packaging, cleaning support and pneumatic automation is involved, receiver size, filtration and pressure drop deserve equal attention. This is one of the checks used to distinguish the 22 kW Matola package from a generic equipment-only quote.

One realistic design case for this page is a central air point serving product handling, packaging, cleaning support and pneumatic automation across more than one work area. 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 the Matola application, the 22 kW scope states how this requirement will be handled.

System logic for food processing and industrial zone

01 · Demand

Map the working air profile

For food processing in Matola, 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. For the 22 kW Matola proposal, this point is verified against the submitted site data before the final scope is issued.

03 · Control

Choose fixed-speed or VSD from data

Where industrial zone 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. This detail is confirmed during the 22 kW site-planning stage for Matola.

Local operating profile

Design priorities for Matola

Within the Matola 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 Matola quotation, this is matched to the actual operating pattern of the proposed 22 kW system.

Five questions for the Matola quotation

  1. What air quality is required after the dryer and filters?
  2. Is there an existing receiver, dryer or ring main that will remain in service?
  3. What electrical supply is available at the proposed compressor position?
  4. How will hot discharge air leave the compressor room?
  5. Is production able to stop for planned maintenance, or is redundancy required?

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 Matola. Existing equipment should be checked for capacity and pressure loss first. This detail is confirmed during the 22 kW site-planning stage for Matola.

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. This is one of the checks used to distinguish the 22 kW Matola package from a generic equipment-only quote.

Growth and uptime package

Allow connection points, controls and pipe capacity for future industrial zone demand. Where air loss stops production, evaluate standby capacity or an emergency compressor connection. Before order placement, this point is reviewed for the specific 22 kW installation in Matola.

Other compressor sizes for Matola

Motor size alone does not confirm suitability. Compare usable flow at pressure, duty cycle and air quality for each option. This forms part of the technical review for the 22 kW Matola quotation rather than being treated as a standard assumption.
