Abstract

The compressor unit (10) has at least two compressor stages (11, 12) and an intermediate cooler (21) for compressed air connected to the first stage, and an after cooler (22) for compressed air connected to the last stage. The intermediate cooler and the after cooler are charged with cooling air by fans (38, 39).
