The casing and rotors are machined from high-grade cast iron or forged steel. There’s no flex under load. The rotor profile (Howden’s proprietary “X” profile) is precision-ground, resulting in minimal internal leakage. In our plant, vibration levels remained consistently below 2.0 mm/s even at 100% load.
While service intervals are long, when something breaks, parts are expensive. A set of main bearings can cost $3,000–$5,000, and an OEM rotor replacement is nearly the cost of a new unit. Additionally, servicing requires specialized tooling and Howden-trained technicians—local general mechanics cannot handle it. howden screw compressor
Howden compressors are designed for efficiency and adaptability. Specific models, like the WRV 204 , feature advanced components to maintain peak performance: The casing and rotors are machined from high-grade
You need a compressor that runs for 20+ years with minimal unplanned downtime, and you have the budget for the initial purchase and OEM service. In our plant, vibration levels remained consistently below 2
