Atlas Copco introduces Elektronikon® NanoTM, the first compressor controller with over-the-air updates and an app
The new and fully in-house developed Elektronikon® NanoTM from Atlas Copco is the world’s first compressor controller to work with an app. This means users can monitor their Atlas Copco G compressor from anywhere in the world and control it remotely using the Atlas Copco SMARTLINK app. Thanks to the Nano’s over-the-air updates, Atlas Copco’s G 15L-22 is the first compressor to get better over time.
The complete Elektronikon experience
The Nano complements the Atlas Copco Elektronikon line-up, which also includes the mid-range Swipe and the top-of-the-line Touch. Although the Nano is the smallest of the three, it offers the full Elektronikon experience with a premium build and an intuitive, uncluttered screen. It also comes with a host of advanced features, such as the energy-saving DSS (Delayed Second Stop), which stops the compressor’s motor whenever possible.
The controller will be rolled out throughout Atlas Copco’s entire G rotary screw compressor range. The first compressor to feature the Nano is the G 15L-22.
There’s an app for that - mobile control
Thanks to the Elektronikon Nano’s wifi and wired connectivity, users can easily monitor their Atlas Copco G-compressor using the SMARTLINK app on their mobile devices. In one quick glance, they can check the unit’s most important performance indicators – pressure, temperature, running hours and operation mode.
Using their smartphone or tablet’s Bluetooth® connection, customers can even control the unit to turn it on/off, set a compressor timer, and improve its efficiency. They can also run a leakage detection program to ensure their compressor is working optimally.
For increased peace of mind, SMARTLINK sends out real-time notifications alerting users to machine warnings and shutdowns.
Over-the-air updates
The new Nano is the first compressor controller to support over-the-air updates, making the G 15L-22 the first compressor to get better over time. As new features become available, they will be sent automatically and securely to all Nano-controlled compressors.
“You could say the Elektronikon Nano makes our G compressors future-proof. That is quite the milestone in compressor development.” “We’re always working on new features and technologies that make our compressors even more reliable and even more efficient. Thanks to the Nano, even customers who already own a G will not miss out on these innovations.”
All of the Nano’s features are free for customers to use. They only need a wifi/wired connection and Bluetooth functionality. The new controller will be available on all Atlas Copco G compressors, starting with the G 15L-22. The SMARTLINK app is available to download now on the Apple App Store and Google Play.
