Atlas air compressor head 1616725691 C168 main engine head

The Atlas Copco air compressor head (model 1616725691) is a high-performance screw compressor component designed for industrial appliions requiring reliable compressed air delivery. This precision-engineered air end forms the core of Atlas Copco's GA series oil-injected rotary screw compressors, delivering exceptional efficiency and durability in demanding industrial environments.

The compressor head features Atlas Copco's patented asymmetric rotor profile design, which optimizes compression efficiency by reducing internal leakage and converting over 90% of input energy into compressed air. The precision-machined rotors operate at speeds up to 5000 RPM, ensuring consistent airflow and reduced energy consumption.

Built with high-grade carbon steel materials and corrosion-resistant components, the air end is engineered to withstand high temperatures, heavy-duty cycles, and harsh industrial environments. The robust construction includes high-quality bearings designed for 50,000+ operating hours with proper maintenance.

The advanced rotor design and optimized compression chamber geometry minimize energy consumption, resulting in significant cost savings over the compressor's lifecycle. The unit operates at noise levels of 60-65 dB(A), making it suitable for various industrial settings.

The Atlas Copco air compressor head is designed for use in various industrial sectors:

• Manufacturing: Powering pneumatic tools, automated equipment, and assembly lines
• Automotive: Supporting automotive repair, painting, and manufacturing processes
• Chemical & Petrochemical: Providing process air for reaction systems
• Pharmaceutical: Delivering clean compressed air for sensitive appliions
• Construction: Powering pneumatic tools on construction sites
• Food & Beverage: Supporting processing and packaging operations

This air end is compatible with Atlas Copco GA series compressors including:

• GA55+ to GA75+ models
• GA90 to GA110 models
• GA160 to GA250 models

• Ensure proper alignment and secure mounting
• Follow recommended torque specifiions for all connections
• Verify adequate ventilation and cooling
• Maintain minimum clearance of 18 inches from walls

• Daily: Check for leaks and unusual noises
• Weekly: Inspect air filters and clean if necessary
• Monthly: Check oil levels and system pressure
• Every 2,000 hours: Oil and filter changes
• Every 20,000 hours: Full bearing inspection

The advanced design delivers up to 15% reduction in operating temperatures and up to 12% energy cost savings compared to conventional compressor heads.

With proper maintenance, the air end provides reliable operation for over 50,000 hours, minimizing downtime and maintenance costs.

Precision-balanced rotors reduce vibration and noise, extending the lifespan of connected equipment and improving the working environment.

All Atlas Copco air compressor heads undergo rigorous testing and quality control processes. The components are manufactured to ISO standards and backed by a comprehensive warranty program.
