Rotary Vane Compressors
Rotary Vane Compressors - HV 01 - 04 Series
Small and compact Hydrovane HV 01 - 04 models are ideally suited for light industrial and workshop appliactions where the compressed air outlet needs to be situated close to the point of use.
Base or receiver mounted
50/60Hz
1.1- 4kW
10 bar
0.12 - 0.57 m3/min
4.3 - 20.1 cfm
Rotary vane compressors are positive displacement air compressors that use a rotor with sliding vanes inside a chamber to compress air. As the rotor spins, air is drawn in, trapped between vanes, and compressed by reducing the trapped volume — resulting in a steady, pulse-free output. This technology is rugged, quiet, and suitable for continuous use.
The HV 01-04 Series is the entry-level segment of Hydrovane’s rotary vane range, designed for light industrial and workshop applications where the compressor can be located close to the point of use.

These compressors are oil-lubricated vane units (internal lubrication helps sealing and cooling), and they’re known for smooth, continuous operation with low noise and vibration — suitable for tool operation, pneumatics, labs, production cells, etc.
🔧 Typical Features & Benefits
✅ Compact & robust design — Small footprint for mounting near point of use.
✅ Direct drive — Fewer wear parts, simpler maintenance, and efficient power transfer.
✅ Easy controls — Built-in starter and basic electronics with thermal protection.
✅ Quiet operation — Lower rotational speeds reduce noise and stress.
✅ Optional packages — Can be supplied with integrated dryer and receiver packages for turnkey compressed air solutions.
🔍 Typical Applications
These series compressors are ideal for applications like:
• Pneumatic tools and workshops
• Small industrial use
• Printing and packaging equipment
• Instruments, laboratories and test benches
• OEM use on machinery requiring compressed air
🛠 How They Work (Simplified)
Air intake: Air enters the compression chamber via an intake valve.
Sliding vanes compress: As the rotor turns eccentrically, vanes slide and trap air pockets.
Volume reduction: Air is compressed as the chamber volume decreases.
Outlet: Compressed air is discharged at the set pressure — typically around 10 bar.
