What sort of location would a large screw compressor like this be in? Some sort of manufacturing?

@chechnya We bought these from a major food processing company in the USA.

Motor seems to be some kind of high voltage type. What voltage does it use?

Very neat stuff.

@DragonFlyback256 The motor is 4160 Volt. It is considered 'medium voltage'. Many of the larger industrial applications use this voltage instead of 460V.

@genemco

Whether 4kV is considered to be HV or MV depends IMHO on the industry it's applied in; for me, any voltage from the point it is able to create a 1 atmosphere corona discharge, is high voltage. Anyway, thanks for the info.
