Selecting the correct pressure configuration is important because compressor capacity decreases as operating pressure increases. Choose the lowest pressure that properly supports your equipment to maximize available airflow and system efficiency.
Complete Tank Mounted Compressor and Dryer Package
Instead of purchasing and installing a compressor, receiver, and refrigerated dryer separately, this HBD 22 configuration combines the primary components of a compressed air system into one convenient package.
The integrated design helps reduce installation complexity and provides a clean, professional compressor-room layout while supplying both compressed air storage and moisture removal.
30 HP Hertz Rotary Screw Compressor
At the heart of the system is the Hertz HBD 22 belt-driven rotary screw compressor. The HBD Series is engineered for continuous industrial compressed air applications where reliability, efficiency, and ease of maintenance are important.
Hertz utilizes a durable screw block with rotor profiles designed to minimize internal air losses and reduce torque requirements while delivering dependable compressed air production.
Integrated Refrigerated Air Dryer
The built-in refrigerated air dryer removes moisture from the compressed air before it enters the plant air system.
Removing condensed water helps protect:
- Pneumatic tools and equipment
- Air-operated machinery
- Valves and cylinders
- Distribution piping
- Paint and finishing equipment
- Production processes sensitive to moisture
Integrating the dryer directly into the compressor package provides a convenient solution for facilities that want compressed air production, storage, and drying in one system.
Integrated Air Receiver Tank
The tank-mounted configuration provides compressed air storage directly beneath the compressor package.
An air receiver helps stabilize system pressure, accommodate short periods of increased air demand, reduce rapid compressor cycling, and provide additional time for moisture to separate from the compressed air.
Hertz uses air tanks designed to comply with applicable ASME standards.
Premium IE3 High-Efficiency Motor
The HBD Series uses a premium 230/460V, 3-phase, 60 Hz electric motor with IE3 efficiency and IP55 protection.
The industrial-duty motor is designed for dependable operation in demanding compressor applications and uses Class F insulation.
Wye-Delta Starting System
The HBD Series incorporates a wye-delta motor starting system.
This starting method reduces the electrical and mechanical impact associated with starting a large compressor motor compared with across-the-line starting, helping provide smoother operation and reducing stress on system components.
Durable Belt-Drive System
The Hertz HBD Series uses a proven belt-and-pulley drive system designed for reliability and straightforward maintenance.
An easy belt-tensioning arrangement helps simplify routine service and allows technicians to inspect, adjust, or replace drive components without unnecessary downtime.
Advanced Electronic Compressor Controller
The HBD 22 features a microprocessor-based electronic controller designed to provide straightforward compressor operation and system monitoring.
The controller manages compressor operation while giving operators convenient access to important operating information, helping maintain consistent compressed air production and simplify day-to-day system management.
Efficient Cooling System
The HBD 22 utilizes a dedicated axial cooling fan with temperature control to help maintain appropriate operating temperatures.
Effective cooling is particularly important in rotary screw compressors because controlling operating temperature contributes to compressor reliability, lubricant life, and long-term component performance.
Service-Friendly Design
Routine maintenance is part of owning any industrial air compressor, and Hertz designed the HBD Series with service accessibility in mind.
Quick-access panels and a logical internal component layout provide convenient access to consumable and service items, helping reduce the amount of time required for routine compressor maintenance.
The spin-on air/oil separator design further simplifies service and replacement.
Compact All-in-One Design
Combining the compressor, dryer, and receiver into one system can substantially simplify compressed air equipment installation.
The HBD 22 tank-mounted package is ideal when floor space is valuable or when the customer wants to avoid installing several separate pieces of equipment throughout the compressor room.
One integrated system provides a cleaner installation while reducing the number of individual components that need to be positioned and interconnected in the field.
Ideal Applications
The Hertz HBD 22 30 HP Tank Mounted Rotary Screw Compressor with Dryer is well suited for a wide range of commercial and industrial applications, including:

Why Buy Your Hertz HBD 22 from Compressed Air Advisors Online?
Compressed Air Advisors Online specializes in industrial compressed air equipment. We don't simply sell compressors. We help customers make sure the compressor, pressure, airflow, dryer, filtration, receiver, and electrical configuration work together as a complete system.
Selecting a rotary screw compressor based solely on horsepower can lead to an undersized or improperly configured system. Our team can help evaluate your actual CFM requirements, operating pressure, air quality requirements, electrical service, and future expansion needs before you purchase.
Compressed Air Advisors Online ships industrial compressed air equipment nationwide and provides knowledgeable support before and after the sale.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much air does the Hertz HBD 22 produce?
Air capacity depends on the selected operating pressure:
- 139 CFM at 100 PSI
- 127 CFM at 125 PSI
- 113 CFM at 150 PSI
- 107 CFM at 175 PSI
How much horsepower is the Hertz HBD 22?
The Hertz HBD 22 is powered by a 30 HP electric motor.
What voltages are available?
The HBD 22 is available for 230V or 460V, 3-phase, 60 Hz electrical service.
What pressure configurations are available?
The HBD 22 can be ordered in 100 PSI, 125 PSI, 150 PSI, or 175 PSI configurations.
Does the Hertz HBD 22 include an air dryer?
Yes. This configuration includes an integrated refrigerated compressed air dryer for removing moisture from the compressed air system.
Is the HBD 22 tank mounted?
Yes. This configuration is supplied as a tank-mounted package, combining the compressor, refrigerated dryer, and air receiver into a compact compressed air system.
Should I choose the 100, 125, 150, or 175 PSI model?
The correct pressure depends on the equipment being supplied. In most applications, the compressor should be selected at the lowest pressure that reliably satisfies the equipment requirements. Operating at unnecessarily high pressure reduces available CFM and increases energy consumption.
