Built to perform in harsh environments with the highest efficiency, the GA keeps your production running smoothly and reliably.
Assured reliability
The GA is designed, manufactured and tested in accordance with ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 1217, Ed. 3, Annex C. Ensuring a long and trouble free life at the lowest operating cost, the GA contains the latest generation of Atlas Copco’s patented oil-injected screw element, powered by a maintenance free drive system. Engineered to provide reliability even in ambient temperatures up to 55°C/131°F, the GA takes reliability to a new level.
Reduced energy costs
The cost of compressed air can represent over 40% of your total electrical costs. Atlas Copco wants to help you spend less. Our GA VSD (Variable Speed Drive) compressors can reduce energy costs by an average of 35% and overall compressor lifecycle costs (LCC) by an average of 22% by tuning compressor capacity to the air demand. The resulting energy savings have a substantial environmental impact, reflecting Atlas Copco’s dedication to safeguarding a healthy future for the generations to come.
Air system integration
The GA WorkPlace Air System can be placed where you need it: the point of use. Its low noise operation and integrated air treatment equipment eliminate the need for a separate compressor room – reducing piping costs and internal system pressure drop. GA compressors are delivered ready for use, reducing installation costs to a minimum.

Customer benefits
Highest reliability– GA compressors incorporate the latest generation of Atlas Copco’s state-of-the-art compression elements based on innovative asymmetric rotor profiles, a high-quality drive system and heavy-duty air inlet filters. All these components are selected to operate continuously in the toughest conditions and at ambient temperatures up to 55°C/131°F. Together they ensure long and trouble-free life of your compressor at the lowest operating cost.
Maximum energy savings– The innovative design of our GA compressors (including screw element, motor, VSD-controlled cooling fans etc.) enables you to achieve substantial savings in your energy costs and overall compressor lifecycle costs. The GA Variable Speed Drive (VSD) reduces energy costs by a further 35% on average by automatically adjusting the air supply to your air demand. And to reduce your costs even further, install the optional energy recovery system.
Integrated air treatment– The GA Full Feature with highly energy efficient integrated refrigerant dryer and air filter ensures the continuous supply of clean and dry air to extend the life of equipment, enhance system reliability and avoid costly downtime and production delays.
Advanced control and monitoring– To maximize efficiency and reliability, the Elektronikon® controls the main drive motor and regulates system pressure within a predefined and narrow pressure band. The Elektronikon® controller can be adapted to your specific needs with extra sensors, digital contacts, fieldbus, Internet and SMS communication functions. In combination with the ES multiple compressor controller, the operation of your complete compressor room is optimized.
Easy installation– The integrated design includes internal piping, coolers, motor, lubrication and control system: all supplied as a ready-to-use package. Installation is fault-free and commissioning time is low. Simply plug and run.

1).Maintenance free drive system
- The GA drive system is 100% maintenance free – eliminating the risks inherent to the greasing of conventional
motor bearings.
- Patented technology allows the drive system to run in ambient temperatures up to 55°C/131°F.*
2).Oil filter
- A high efficiency oil filter removes 300% smaller particles than a conventional filter, providing clean oil to extend
the lifetime of all lubricated parts in the compressor.
- The oil filter rating of ß12=75 sets a new industrial compressor standard that is fully compliant with ISO 16889.
3).Aftercooler with integrated water separator
- The GA’s aftercooler with integrated water separator immediately removes 100% of condensate – avoiding the
risk of corrosion in downstream equipment and improving air quality compared to conventional cyclone separators.
4).Electronic water drains
- The GA’s no loss drains eliminate the waste of compressed air that conventional drains create.
- The drains communicate with the compressor controller to ensure the constant removal of condensate.
- A large diameter drain port removes the potential for clogging, providing trouble free operation.
5).Electrical cubicle cooling booster
- The main cooling fan cools the electrical cubicle, ensuring operating temperatures are strictly regulated even in
ambient temperatures up to 55°C/131°F.*
6).Oil separator
- Innovative filter material removes oil particles from the compressed air while minimizing pressure drop. This results in optimal air quality at the highest efficiency.
7).Inlet valve
- The inlet valve is sized for maximum flow to eliminate any inefficient pressure drops.
- The valve is operated through vacuum and air pressure to offer superior reliability compared to spring operated
inlet valves.
8).Inlet filter
- A heavy duty air intake filter protects the compressor components by removing 99.9% of dirt particles down
to 3 microns.
