We reduce volume and weight with high rotational speed. Celeroton is the world’s leading supplier of gas-bearing turbo compressors. We are a system provider for compressors including converters for fuel cells, noble gas recirculation and compression, gas recovery, pneumatics, cryogenics, clean/sterile air supply and other industrial applications.
Ultra-high-speed turbo compressors with contact-free and oil-free gas bearing enable outstanding solutions in terms of compactness, service life and performance. Compared to compressors with standard speeds, our systems are significantly lighter and smaller as well as highly efficient and quiet.
All our converters allow for sensorless control of turbo compressors and motors up to highest speeds. The solution from one single source guarantees optimal compatibility of the converters and the turbo compressors and motors, thus minimizing losses in the turbo compressor or motor and ensuring high converter efficiency and a smooth startup process.
Thanks to their high rotational speeds, our motors enable high performance at the smallest volume and weight. This is enabled by rotor designs, windings, materials and proprietary design tools specifically optimized for highest rotational speeds.
Our magnetic-bearing choppers can be operated in a vacuum, in air or in a noble gas atmosphere. This allows us to achieve maximum speeds and chopper frequencies. They are used in infrared, laser and X-ray applications and offer highly stable speed control and lock-in functionality.
We are passionate about innovation.
Combination of interdisciplinary technologies into optimized turbo compressor system. This guarantees a system out of one hand with matched components, in particular converter and compressor.
Oil and maintenance-free operation at highest speeds thanks to a rotor floating on a gas film generated by the rotation of the shaft. Resistant to shocks and vibrations.
Transfer of mechanical shaft power to the fluid with radial turbo compressor technology. No pressure fluctuations and a constant mass flow with maximum efficiency.
Permanent magnet synchronous machine technology, providing the required shaft power with minimal copper, iron and rotor losses. Designed for mechanical and rotor dynamic integration with the ultra-high-speed rotor-bearing system. Optimized for series production.
Rotor dynamic design and balancing procedures. Theoretical and practical innovation, knowhow and experience in high-speed operation combined at its best.
The more compact the system, the higher the losses per volume and the bigger the challenge for thermal design and cooling.
Reduction of mechanical stresses with optimized geometries and materials. Consideration of manufacturing tolerances and temperature range.
High power density and low losses in converters and motors thanks to a system design and the right choice of topology and modulation methods.
Communication with the user, control of power electronics, motor and compressor – and protection of these components through monitoring and diagnostics.
