ELGi S016883-460/3

ELGi S016883-460/3 is a 30 HP single-stage rotary-screw air compressor delivering 134 SCFM at 100 PSI maximum. Wired for 460 V three-phase, this large-capacity simplex unit weighs 1,488 lbs and is priced at approximately $16,139. The model suffix 460/3 confirms three-phase 460 V electrical configuration. At 134 SCFM, this unit targets mid-scale industrial plants, multi-machine production cells, and high-volume spray finishing operations requiring continuous-duty compressed air. Note: catalog data shows oil-free lubrication and gas power type — these likely reflect a data anomaly; actual configuration should be confirmed with ELGi or an authorized distributor. Key gaps: confirmed lubrication type, drive configuration, and OEM ELGi primary-source datasheet not yet located.
