Before pricing a 22 kW machine for Rundu, the system should be mapped from the furthest point of use back to the compressor room to expose pressure loss and storage needs.
Typical planning role: a continuous line with multiple pneumatic consumers.
Rundu is approached here as a mining-linked production and maintenance environment. That means the quote should prioritise fast recovery, practical pipe routing and dependable service access, especially where vehicle workshops, loading equipment, maintenance bays and packaging support is part of the daily air demand. This detail is confirmed during the 22 kW site-planning stage for Rundu.
One realistic design case for this page is a central air point serving vehicle workshops, loading equipment, maintenance bays and packaging support 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. On the Rundu project, we confirm this specifically for the 22 kW package and the measured duty profile.
Build the 22 kW package around the process
01 · Demand
Map the working air profile
For logistics in Rundu, list the equipment behind vehicle workshops, loading equipment, maintenance bays and packaging support 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 fast recovery, practical pipe routing and dependable service access. A matched dryer and filter train must meet the most sensitive logistics application without adding unnecessary pressure loss. This is one of the checks used to distinguish the 22 kW Rundu package from a generic equipment-only quote.
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. Before order placement, this point is reviewed for the specific 22 kW installation in Rundu.
Local operating profile
Design priorities for Rundu
That local profile guides the complete 22 kW system arrangement proposed for Rundu, not merely the compressor model.
For this 22 kW page, the strongest proposal is one that links receiver storage, room ventilation, filtration and maintenance access to the logistics process instead of treating them as optional extras. The 22 kW design for Rundu is checked against this requirement before compressor, receiver and dryer selections are finalised.

Before we price the machine
Five questions for the Rundu quotation
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?
Is the demand steady, cyclical or strongly variable during the day?
What air quality is required after the dryer and filters?
Is there an existing receiver, dryer or ring main that will remain in service?
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 Rundu. Existing equipment should be checked for capacity and pressure loss first. The final 22 kW proposal for Rundu will show whether this is included, optional or dependent on site preparation.
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 logistics duty. The 22 kW design for Rundu is checked against this requirement before compressor, receiver and dryer selections are finalised.
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. Before order placement, this point is reviewed for the specific 22 kW installation in Rundu.
Motor size alone does not confirm suitability. Compare usable flow at pressure, duty cycle and air quality for each option. Before order placement, this point is reviewed for the specific 22 kW installation in Rundu.
Questions specific to this 22 kW Rundu brief
Most production systems benefit from a matched refrigeration dryer and filtration. The required dew point and filter grade depend on the logistics process; sensitive instruments or product-contact risks may require a different air-quality design. This is one of the checks used to distinguish the 22 kW Rundu package from a generic equipment-only quote.
Specify the minimum pressure required at the furthest user, then calculate losses through pipework, filters and the dryer. Raising the compressor set point to compensate for a restrictive network wastes energy, so the distribution system should be checked first. This detail is confirmed during the 22 kW site-planning stage for Rundu.
The scope can include delivery, off-loading, positioning, receiver and dryer connections, airline tie-in, electrical coordination, commissioning and operator handover. The final quotation separates included work from any site preparation required before arrival. For Rundu, the 22 kW recommendation records this item in the equipment and installation schedule.
Base the service plan on operating hours, environment and manufacturer intervals. For a mining-linked production and maintenance environment, intake filters, cooler cleanliness, drains and ventilation deserve routine inspection in addition to oil, separator and filter changes. In the Rundu quotation, this is matched to the actual operating pattern of the proposed 22 kW system.
