Air-cooled high-pressure compressors in the PE-VE-series (air & nitrogen) in the pressure range 90 – 420 bar

The PE-VE range – an all-rounder for the industrial sector

BAUER PE-VE Super-Silent (sound-insulated) high-pressure compressor

Compact dimensions: For installation wherever space is at a premium

Fully automatic B-CONTROL MICRO compressor control with colour display

B-DRAIN: The new automatic condensate drain is quieter and saves energy

Optional super-silent housing: for lower noise emissions

Very easy to maintain: The tension of the V-belt does not have to be adjusted

With the new PE-VE, BAUER has designed a series of system components that combines interesting features with an outstanding price-performance ratio, even in the basic version.

In combination with the numerous system options and a wide range of accessories, tailored solutions for almost all tasks in the air and nitrogen sector can be implemented.

At the heart of the system are BAUER’s high-pressure compressor blocks, which have earned themselves a legendary reputation on the market for theirreliability and durability. The systems technology used is designed for industrial use.

All the information you need at your fingertips!

B-CONTROL MICRO compressor control
The B-CONTROL MICRO is a modern, easy-to-use compressor control with colour display for the control and reliable monitoring of all basic functions. Read more

PE-VE – the concept
The PE-VE series is a classic within the BAUER product range. Enhanced and perfected over the years, the construction has proven itself a thousand times over and stands for reliability, user-friendliness and ease of maintenance. Read more

Compressor blocks
With their outstanding surface hardness, plasma-nitrided and plateau-honed cylinders are able to achieve extremely long service lives combined with low energy consumption and reliable oil lubrication of cylinder surfaces. Read more

B-DRAIN automatic condensate drain
The automatic condensate drain automatically removes the condensate that forms during compression (water/oil mixture) from the intermediate separators and the final separator and collects it in a condensate vessel. Read more

AIR COOLING
Compressors in the PE-VE series are cooled directly using ambient air. The heat they generate is discharged efficiently and effectively. Read more

Drive
A low-maintenance, self-tensioning V-belt drive is used for power transmission in the PE-VE series. The integration of a motor rocker means that the tension of the V-belt does not need to be adjusted. The compressor units are fitted ex works with energy-saving three-phase motors which meet the requirements of energy efficiency class IE3.

Super Silent version
Super Silent housing reduces the noise level of the compressor unit and enables an exhaust shaft to be used. For units in the PE-VE series, Super-Silent sound insulation can be retrofitted on request.

B-APP
The B-APP allows remote access to BAUER compressors with the B-CONTROL MICRO control via the B-CLOUD. It offers useful features such as calculation tools, an integrated worldwide dealer search, news and videos about compressed air and BAUER compressors. Available in the App Store (iOS) and on Google Play (Android). Read more

P 41 / P 61 Purification system
The units in the PE-VE series can be supplied with the P 41 or P 61 purification system integrated as an option. Clean air and gas qualities meeting the requirements of ISO 8573-1 (among others) can be achieved.

Particulate filter
An integrated particulate filter is offered as an option in conjunction with the P41 and P61 purification systems, to remove particulates safely in compliance with industrial requirements under ISO 8573 class 2.

B-SECURUS filter monitoring
The B-SECURUS system monitors the saturation of the filter cartridge(s) by measuring the moisture in the molecular sieve. Read more

B-KOOL III refrigeration dryer
The normal service life (capacity) of a filter cartridge can be extended many times over by additional cooling of the compressed air with the B-KOOL III refrigeration dryer. Read more

Intake system
The intake system is needed to supply the compressor with air or gas at a suitable and monitored intake pressure. Read more

Intake pressure reduction
IIntake pressure reduction ensures that the compressor takes in the gas at the appropriate pressure. The level of intake pressure reduction is adjusted according to prevailing gas pressure and required intake pressure. Integrated safety valves and pressure monitoring effectively ensure that intake pressure does not fall below or above the permissible level.

60-litre condensate vessel
The generous 60 l condensate collection system provides a central collection point for the condensate produced during the compression process inside the compressor. Read more

Base frame
The compressor and up to 2 storage bottles each with a geometric capacity of 50 or 80 litres are installed on the extended base frame, making this a turnkey system.

Exhaust shaft
Two types of exhaust shaft are available for the installation of compressors in containers, housings or service rooms. Read more

Scope of delivery, basic version
Complete compressor unit ready for operation. Read more
