A check-up of your energy efficiency will directly lead to cost savings
Compressed air, which accounts on average for 12% of industrial electricity usage, and as much as 40% in some cases, therefore offers scope for significant energy savings.
Companies may be reluctant to perform an air audit due to costs associated with such services, but the final outcomes can far outweigh the initial investment.
Did you know, for example, that reducing your compressed air pressure by 1 bar could result in energy savings of as much as 7%?
Leakage can amount to 10-15% of the produced compressed airflow and it is also proportional to the working pressure. So leakage, worn equipment, and processes that have not been properly configured or the incorrect use of compressed air need to be rectified
Selecting the right size of the air compressor for your workload is the first step.
We should mention that you’ll improve your energy savings by another 35% if you oose an AtlasCopco Air Compressors with Variable Speed Drive (VSD)+ technology.
Whatever air compressor you end up purchasing, make sure that the power requirement for every part that belongs to the unit is accurately accounted for and factored into your calculations.
