Innovators in compressor technology

Raise Efficiencies with Patented Vane Technology

Mattei pioneered the development of the Rotary Vane Compressor in 1958, and for over 50 years, these machines have been in use worldwide. Recent patents generated by Mattei's Research & Development Department is evidence of our drive to continually exploit proprietary vane technology and advantages. Benefit from the performance and efficiencies of our rotary vane compressors versus traditional rotary screw compressor systems. With a focus on both current and future compressor models, Mattei will reduce costs while delivering ever increasing efficiencies.

Unconventionally Reliable & Efficient

Continuous Mattei research & development has confirmed that the following contributes to superior vane performance.

• Efficient: Vane compressors deliver ~90% mechanical efficiency. As speed decreases the compressor efficiency increases (straight-line energy savings)
• Reliable: Vane compressors are designed for low speeds and long life (backed by a Revolutionary 10 Year Warranty)
• Durable: 100,000 hour Compressor Airend design (>2X the life of a rotary screw)
• Economical: High productivity, low operating cost. (Energy Saving kW/100 scfm design)
• Simple: Direct Drive, less moving parts. (Recently Patented advancements)

Recently patented Mattei compressor technology meeting these ambitious goals of improved performance and efficiencies have been released in the U.S. as two superior products-Optima and Maxima.

Optima 11 kW through 200 kW: OPTIMA Series features VSD controllers to optimize energy savings for facilities with varying levels of plant air demand. Optional integrated air dryer and condensate management system is available with integrated refrigerated air dryer, OPTIMA offers you everything inside a quiet (<69dB(A) average) easy to install compact cabinet.

Maxima 40 HP through 200 HP: MAXIMA Series offers extraordinary performance and energy efficiency for systems with high levels of demand. Optional integrated air dryer, condensate management, and heat recovery system.
