BK Series

Deck Air Compressor · Compressors

Class-certified type (DNV register) · technical data sheet not yet verified

The Bauer BK Series is a deck air compressor. It is normally installed in a machinery or deck-service space connected to deck consumers. It is designed for a dedicated compressed-air source for deck or cargo-related services. The operating principle relies on compression of atmospheric air using the model's installed compressor principle. Compared with neighbouring models, the relevant differences are delivery, pressure, environmental protection, cooling and drive; these must be confirmed from the installed documentation rather than inferred from the model designation alone. Service and survey attention should concentrate on corrosion exposure, intake condition, cooling, drains, controls and deck distribution piping. For exact ratings, dimensions, tolerances, test limits and model-specific settings, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Replacement Parts

Spare parts notes

Carry filter elements, valve/service kits, gaskets, piston rings or air-end seals as appropriate, belts/coupling elements, drain valves and pressure-control components. Starting-air units may justify spare valve plates or cylinder-service parts; service-air plants may require separator/dryer consumables.

Makers and authorised dealers rarely quote marine equipment without the vessel. With these details we can check availability and prices faster; without them we may have to ask first, which can cost a few days. If you cannot share the vessel, a photo of the equipment’s rating plate does the same job — send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
