'Reliable clean air quality' - The Apple Farm implement SF22+ oil-free scroll compressor

The Traas family had been growing fruit in the Netherlands since the 1800s, and moved to Ireland in the late 1960's. This took them to the site where The Apple Farm is now situated, between Cahir and Clonmel on the main Limerick-Waterford road. 

In 2019, The Apple Farm in Co. Tipperary implemented an SF22+ oil-free scroll compressor on site. We visited Con Traas on site in October 2022 to check out how they were getting on!

What were the demands and challenges for The Apple Farm?

Ciarán Rogers, Aftermarket Sales Engineer, Atlas Copco Ireland

The Apple Farm required more air for their peak demand. They previously had an older SF8 scroll compressor and were happy with the product and service so decided to continue with Atlas Copco and upgrade to an SF22+.

We are very happy with the SF22+ compressor in general, it can supply enough air to cover my peak demands and is more efficient and reliable than my previous compressor.

The Apple Farm now has a continuous supply of air that can match big fluctuations in demand. They estimate around 20% in energy savings over previous solution and also benefit from ease of use along with less maintenance and breakdowns.
