Hydrovane HV01 to HV04
Rotary vane compressors 1.1 to 4 kW – compact, on base frame or receiver
The smallest Hydrovane compressors are made for workshops and light industry, where compressed air is to be produced right at the point of use.
They are mounted on a base frame or an air receiver and are available as a complete package with a membrane or refrigeration dryer, factory-assembled or as a kit.
Motor power
1.1 to 4 kW
Pressure
10 bar
Free air delivery
0.12 to 0.57 m³/min
Why the HV01 to HV04?
The rotor is the only continuously moving part. It turns slowly and is directly driven, without belts. This makes the compressors particularly durable and low-maintenance.
The starter has a robust control circuit with overtemperature protection. A complete package is often more economical than a system built from individual components.
- Compact, on base frame or receiver
- 1.1 to 4 kW, 10 bar
- Simple, robust controller with overtemperature protection
- Available with membrane or refrigeration dryer
- Residual oil below 3 mg/m³
- Quiet enough for the workshop

Frequently asked questions
How does a rotary vane compressor work?
A rotor with longitudinal slots turns in a cylindrical housing. Vanes slide in the slots; they are pushed outwards by centrifugal force and run on a film of oil. This creates chambers that become smaller as the rotor turns, compressing the air. The rotor is the only moving part and turns slowly with direct drive.
Can the compressor stand next to the workstation?
Yes. At 62 to 73 dB(A), Hydrovane compressors are quiet enough to stand right at the point of use. This saves long pipe runs and a dedicated compressor room.
Do I also need a dryer and filters?
In most cases, yes. The compressor delivers compressed air with very little residual oil, but it still contains moisture. A refrigeration dryer and suitable filters provide the quality your application needs. See Compressed air drying and Compressed air filtration.
Who maintains the compressor?
We do. As the CompAir partner for north-western Switzerland, we maintain and repair your system with genuine spare parts and service kits. If your compressed air supply fails, you can reach our on-call service on 062 552 00 88.

Which compressor is right for your business?
Compressed air demand, pressure, operating times and available space determine the choice. We advise you, supply the compressor with air treatment, install the system and take care of service.
