The Innovative GTB Series
Integrated, Compact, and Highly Efficient
The GTB series combines an exceptionally compact design with advanced engineering solutions that minimize energy losses and maintenance requirements. Each unit features a reduced lubrication oil reservoir integrated directly into the gearbox, along with built-in oil distribution and hydrodynamic-housed hybrid ceramic bearings.
Thanks to the use of the high speed hybrid ceramic bearings with low friction we reduce the total oil volume required during operation, the GTB series achieves outstanding energy efficiency and simplified maintenance. The range is currently available for machines up to 500 kW drive power.
The compressor core can be supplied in different configurations to match installation requirements:
- Baseframe configuration with foot-mounted electric motor
- Compact console configuration with flange-mounted motor and self-aligning flexible coupling
The Traditional GTH Series
Hydrodynamic Bearings for Large Airflows
The GTH series is designed for high-capacity applications where large airflows and pressure are required. Each compressor is equipped with hydrodynamic tilting pad bearings, ensuring optimal stability, durability, and smooth operation at every loads.
With power ratings up to 5,000 kW, the GTH range represents the ideal solution for demanding industrial processes that require continuous performance and reliability.
Due to its larger oil reservoir integrated in the base and the use of a pre-lubrication pump, the GTH series is available exclusively in the baseframe configuration.

Enclosure options
Compact, Modular, and Containerized — Designed Around Your Installation
Every installation is different. That’s why Next Turbo compressors can be supplied with a choice of enclosure systems, each designed to simplify installation, reduce on-site work, and ensure optimal acoustic and environmental performance.
Compact Plug & Play Enclosure
Pre-cabled, pre-tested, and ready to operate
The GTB series, thanks to its compact design, can be supplied as a fully enclosed Plug & Play package.
Each unit is pre-cabled, pre-tested, and equipped with all necessary auxiliary components including the blow-off valve, local control panel, and motor control center (MCC) with soft starter, direct start, or VFD starter.
The Plug & Play enclosure is supplied with a flanged B5 motor and allows the discharge volute to be positioned at any 90° angle, offering flexibility for connection to existing piping layouts.
This configuration drastically reduces installation and commissioning time, allowing for immediate integration into the blower room.
Modular Enclosure Package
Customizable acoustic solution built around your compressor
Both GTB and GTH series can be equipped with a modular acoustic enclosure, assembled on-site around the compressor.
The structure consists of removable aluzinc panels and hinged doors with inspection windows, ensuring easy access for maintenance.
The modular design allows full customization based on blower room layout and process piping, including adjustable discharge orientation in 15° increments, both upward and downward.
A versatile solution for virtually any installation environment.
Outdoor solutions
Transportable and fully integrated
For projects requiring mobility or outdoor installation, compressors can be delivered in a containerized Plug & Play configuration.
All components including the compressor, motor, control system, and auxiliary equipment are pre-installed and factory-tested inside a standard shipping container.
The discharge volute can also be adjusted in 15° increments for easier integration with existing piping.
This ensures easy transport, rapid deployment, and minimal on-site assembly, making it Extremly versatile

Automation
Intelligent Automation Solutions
At Next Turbo Technologies, we design automation systems that go beyond compressor control, they enhance the entire application process.
Our automation portfolio covers everything from local compressor management to fully integrated process control, ensuring that every installation operates efficiently, reliably, and in perfect harmony with the biological or industrial process it serves.
Local Control Panel (LCP)
Each compressor is equipped with a Local Control Panel managing all operating sequences, protection logic, and efficiency control. Built with standard, non-proprietary industrial components, our LCPs are easily replaceable and compatible with any plant system, guaranteeing long-term maintainability.
For existing installations, we can upgrade or completely rebuild the hardware and software of old control panels, bringing legacy machines up to modern standards. These retrofitted systems not only improve operational efficiency and reliability but also make daily operation simpler and safer for plant personnel.
Main features:
- Full compressor control, alarms, trips, and auxiliaries
- Diffuser capacity control (flow control) and Inlet Guide Vane (IGV) for optimized efficiency
- Seamless connection to Master Control System (MCS) or SCADA/DCS
- Power supply between 380 and 690 VAC, 3-phase, 50/60 Hz
Master Control System (MCS)
Optimized management for multi-blower systems.
The Next Turbo Master Control System (MCS) manages the operation of multiple compressors, automatically distributing airflow on the main header to meet process demand while equalizing duty hours.
Installed in the blower or electrical room, the MCS communicates with the central SCADA or DCS system using all major industrial protocols, ensuring seamless integration and centralized monitoring of every unit.
Process Control Automation (DO / Ammonia Control)
Building upon the MCS platform, our Process Control Automation integrates Dissolved Oxygen (DO) or Ammonia-based control to manage aeration with unmatched precision.
By constantly analysing real-time data from process sensors, the system adjusts the aeration valves to maintain optimal biological conditions while minimizing energy use.
This control philosophy based on the Most Open Valve (MOV) principle keeps system pressure as low as possible, avoids “system hunting”, and ensures that aeration valves operate in their most efficient range.
Over the years, Next Turbo has developed deep expertise in process control for wastewater treatment.
We work closely with engineering companies and system integrators worldwide to deliver custom automation solutions that optimize biological processes, improve energy efficiency, and guarantee process stability.
Remote Connectivity
Next Turbo’s remote monitoring system provides secure, real-time access to your compressors via a 3G/4G connection, enabling remote diagnostics, commissioning, and performance optimization.
Through our customer data portal, operational data is continuously collected, analysed, and presented to support condition-based maintenance, performance tracking, and troubleshooting — helping prevent downtime and optimize total lifecycle cost.
