ELGi to return to Car Wash Show 2024 and present its compressed air solutions

10 May 2024

ELGi will showcase its EN Series Duplex rotary screw air compressor which offers features for car wash businesses that can contribute to their profitability and operational success.

ELGi North America (ELGi) is pleased to announce its return to the Car Wash Show for the third consecutive year in Nashville, Tennessee. Car Wash facilities rely heavily on the use of compressed air for multiple functions including air drying, operation of pneumatic valves and actuators, pre wash requirements, and many other uses. The ELGi team will be at booth #1556 and will be showcasing our innovative EN Series duplex rotary screw air compressor, which offers significant advantages over traditional compressor design. These advantages contribute to the overall efficiency, reliability, and profitability of a car wash operation.

Car Wash Operations have traditionally utilized piston type compressors to handle their air requirements. These compressors tend to be loud, require extended rest periods to prevent overheating, and in general have a shorter life expectancy. In contrast, ELGi’s EN Series rotary screw air compressors operate continuously at 100% duty cycle without overheating, ensuring a consistent supply of compressed air to keep the car wash running smoothly and profitably.

Moreover, ELGi’s EN Series rotary air compressors produce cleaner, drier air with less moisture and contaminants due to differences in design and operating principles. This clean, dry air source is crucial to protect the pneumatic valves used in car wash systems. The EN Series air compressor also features an advanced air filtration system that keeps the compressor's internal components clean, thereby maintaining optimal cooling efficiency, resulting in an extended machine lifespan.

ELGi’s EN Series rotary screw compressors come in multiple configurations. The duplex tank mounted option, which features two compressors, enables facilities to have complete compressor redundancy to eliminate downtime concern. If one compressor requires service or maintenance, the other compressor can be utilized to ensure continuous air supply. In addition, the ELGi A duplex option allows both compressors to run simultaneously to meet higher air demand during peak hours. This set up ensures optimal performance and prevents drops in air pressure that could negatively affect the washing process.

The EN series is designed with additional features that make it ideal for the car wash industry, including:

Industry-leading low sound level: Operating at just 65dB, the EN Series Duplex provides the lowest sound level in the industry, enabling a quieter and more comfortable environment for both customers and employees.
Fully integrated design: The compact design maximizes efficiency while minimizing the overall footprint, making it ideal for installation in limited spaces without compromising performance.
Easy serviceability and best-in-class maintenance: The EN Series Duplex boasts minimal operational costs and features an accessible design for easy servicing, contributing to a lower total cost of ownership.
Intuitive full-function controller: The user-friendly controller provides at-a-glance compressor status, enabling operators to monitor and manage their systems efficiently.

“We are excited to showcase ELGi’s compressed air solutions at Car Wash Show once again this year," said Keith Sportsman, Director of Sales at ELGi. “Our solutions represent a new choice in compressed air solutions, offering well-designed products with a lower total cost of ownership and superior service support. We are committed to being easy to do business with and providing exceptional value to our customers."

ELGi’s team of compressed air experts will be on hand to answer questions, provide demonstrations, and discuss how ELGi's EN Series Duplex air compressor can contribute to increasing profitability and operational success.
