The oil-free design qualifies for ISO 8573-1 Class 0 applications — food processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, electronics fabrication, and medical air systems where hydrocarbon contamination is not acceptable. Three-phase power and 134 SCFM output position this unit for multi-shift production facilities and high-demand process air. The S016818 model suffix designates the 230V three-phase variant; 460V and other voltages may be available. Priced at approximately 6,139 through specialty industrial distributors. Noise level (dB), dimensions, and a confirmed OEM datasheet are not available in current data — request the ELGi S016818 spec sheet from an authorized ELGi distributor for installation planning.
