Description
LFpR and LFxR oil-free piston pantograph compressors
An auxiliary compressor is a component that you have to trust in pantograph applications. Without it your train will not be able to move. Our compressors from the LFxR and LFpR oilfree ranges are designed for absolute reliability to give you the peace of mind you need.
They achieve this with minimal footprint and enduring performance. The LFxR can also be delivered as requested with optional air dryer and filter in complete air generation package that you can just plug easily on your vehicle. The filters are also positioned for easy single access accessibility.
Our compressors are designed, built and tested to meet the toughest mobility applications (extreme climatic conditions, high humidity, shocks and vibrations). They have proven their value and technology in many applications worldwide. As oilfree compressors designed with the absolute minimum of moving parts, you get the very best in maintenance costs for your auxilary air needs.
