The post Heavy Duty Portable Compressor – designed exclusively for mining and quarrying first appeared on ELGi.]]> The quarrying sector is a vast one that stretches across India, with huge resources of blue metal and granite in the southern part of India, which contributes a reasonable share to India’s GDP.

Portable compressors are used as an energy source in mining because of its flexibility and maneuverability to use at sites with diesel engines.

Applications such as drilling holes in blue metal quarry with jack hammer and crawler drilling using compressed air is more common at sites.

ELGi’s PG 300-100 & PG 400-100 dominate in performance for jack hammer application in blue metal quarry. Its innovative airend screw profile offers high standards of energy efficiency and reliability, with long durability. With heavy duty Ashok Leyland diesel engine and turbocharger options for long-term operation, this concept encodes to increase the efficiency of the compressor system significantly, especially for long productivity in regular operation.

Our customers have found that both our PG 300-100 and PG 400-100 perform better than other compressors, with 6% less fuel consumption per hour than other brands.
