Our History
Lenhardt & Wagner is one of the leading and renowed companies in the market of high-pressure applications.
The app control (Remote Tab Control) is expanded and developed as a Windows-based system called Remote Pro Control. The Compressors can be controlled and monitored on any Windows-based system such as a laptop, notebook, tablet, PC or industrial displays by WIFI. 32,000 storable data units allow recordings per second, minute, hour or day in real time. Remote maintenance, adjustments and the display of all machine parameters are possible location-independent.

2022
The successful blocks of the 150-250 MC series are also available as a silent version. L&W offers low delivery rates with the LW 150 ES and the LW 200 ES, with a long filter service life up to 100 hours at 20°C.

2021
L&W released the 1st compressor control worakable by an App control. This offers the possibility to control the compressor by a 10“ tablet. Customers are able to learn more about the compressor parameters from now on and are free to analyse their own filling requirements.
2020
2020
New development of a small compressor block up to 250 l/ min. The innovative design enables a very slim construction. Compressors can be offered with delivery rates of 150 l / min, 200 l / min or 250 l / min. These mobile units can be offered with all possible options of the stationary series. This is the 1st time, an oil pump can also be optionally ordered for small delivery capacities.
2019
2019
New mobile and stationary PURACON systems for breathing air monitoring can in addition to the water content also check the value of CO / CO2 / O2 and oil in the compressed air. For the first time the monitoring of all required limits according to the European standard for breathing air EN 12021: 2014 is now possible.
2018
2018
Introduction of the advanced compressor series LW 450 III and LW 570 II.
A new industry-proven lubrication system and reinforced components form the core of the new compressor blocks and improve the life of the compressors even under most difficult conditions.
2016
A new industry-proven lubrication system and reinforced components form the core of the new compressor blocks and improve the life of the compressors even under most difficult conditions.
2016
The new and ultra-light MC Series is presented on the BOOT 2015 with a capacity of up to 400 ltr/min we presented the world's most powerful mobile breathing air compressor. The completely newly developed compressor block has been built almost antimagnetic and with all our experience from the last 30 years.
2015
2015
With the new LW 450 ES II we introduced the next generation of silenced compressors, they have a newly developed condensate system which significantly improves the life of the filter. Also includes the new ES Series II as a standard the condensate collection tank.
