Screw Compression Technology

At Startec we have a very high regard for rotary screw compressor technology.

Pioneered by Archimedes

Based on a technical concept pioneered by the ancient Greek mathematician and inventor Archimedes, screw compressors are amazingly simple and extremely efficient.

Amazing Capabilities

Modern screw compressors:

• Provide high volume output in an economical single stage operation
• Require minimal maintenance because they're comprised of just three moving parts
• Have minimal foundation requirements thanks to a vibration-free design
• Accommodate a wide range of inlet and discharge pressures
• Easily adapt to input load variations, such as declining or changing natural gas field pressures
• Can be deployed through a wide range of displacements and horsepower configurations
• Are proven effective across a myriad of industrial applications

As one of Canada's most knowledgeable companies in rotary screw compressors, Startec is uniquely qualified in applying the technology. A screw compressor is a key component in every refrigeration and compression package we design, engineer, manufacture and service.
