1728 cfm, 100 psi, Gardner Denver #VST225-260A, rotary screw air compressor, 300 HP, variable speed, 2016

Low-Hour Gardner Denver VST225-260A Two-Stage Variable Speed Rotary Screw Air Compressor System

Like New Condition - Extremely Low hours 1630 hours. ( 90%+ life remaining)

Maintenance Note:
The unit is currently running perfectly over the last month of December 2025 into Jan 2026. However, upon inspection in November 2025, the unit showed a “high package discharge temp shutdown” on screen, which is typically caused by an intercooler / cooling water flow issue so the intercooler may need service. At minimum it likely needs a flush / descale or worst case replacement of the intercooler.

Again, as of Jan 2026 the unit runs with normal temps on current operation.
