GEA Grasso M series
The GEA Grasso M series comes in eight sizes with a swept volume ranging from 231 to 870 m³/h (at 2,940 rpm).
The integration of the suction filter and coupling housing greatly simplify assembly of the package. The outstanding energy-efficiency of these compressors is based on the infinitely adjustable capacity combined with the extended variable Vi-range (internal volume ratio). The variable speed from 1,000 to 6,000 rpm ensures a wide operation range and maximum efficiency in full and part load.

Climate change and a growing world population put increased pressure on the energy-intensive food industry to feed more people without further impacting the planet. George Shepherd, GEA’s Global Technical Sustainability Manager, explains how GEA uses its engineering know-how to help processors produce more sustainably yet increase productivity.
The world's population is growing and with it demand for milk. Dairy is an essential component of many global diets. However, its production can be resource-intensive and impact the environment. GEA’s Christian Müller, Senior Director Sustainability Farm Technologies, sheds light on how technological innovations powered by GEA make milk production more efficient and profitable.
Every safe beverage and bite of food is a victory against invisible microbial threats – a battle shaped by a century of hygienic process design. With more than 100 years of engineering and hygienic design know-how, GEA sets the industry standard for processing equipment that protects food and saves lives.
