Innovative
Technology
The X-Air⁺ 1200-25 features
a new high-pressure element and patented software that enhance durability and
operational efficiency. The 'pressure optimizer' function automatically reduces
fuel consumption during idle times, potentially saving up to 20% during 'no
load' periods. This function, combined with Atlas Copco’s patented XPR
technology, ensures the compressor can handle both geothermal and foundation
drilling without soil cavitation.
Dynamic
Flow Technology: This advanced technology optimizes the air
flow based on real-time demand, ensuring that the compressor operates at peak
efficiency. By dynamically adjusting the flow, the X-Air⁺ 1200-25 minimizes
energy waste and maximizes performance, making it ideal for varying operational
conditions.
