Why TryComp — Built for Continuous Industrial Duty
TryComp is engineered for continuous industrial duty — IE3 premium-efficiency motors, advanced PLC control with fault logging, and oversized oil coolers and aftercoolers designed specifically for South African ambient temperatures (up to 45°C). Every TryComp unit is built for multi-shift production environments where downtime is not an option.
TryComp vs Belt Drive alternatives: TryComp uses a direct drive air end — eliminating belt wear, belt replacement costs and power transmission losses. The direct coupling between motor and air end means higher efficiency, lower maintenance and a longer operational lifespan. If your operation runs compressed air for 8–24 hours per day, TryComp's total cost of ownership is lower than any belt drive alternative at the same power rating.
Who should buy TryComp: Auto manufacturers, food-grade processing facilities, multi-shift factories, mines and engineering plants where compressed air availability is directly tied to production uptime.
