Discover the potential savings

AIRScan compressed air system audit

Do you know whether your compressed air system is efficient?

It may no longer be properly dimensioned due to changes in your production, or you may be producing compressed air at a higher pressure than needed, or compressors may have too many unloaded hours.

How much energy can you save? Have our experts analyze your compressed air system and find out!

Now you know what the savings opportunities are. Before starting to implement long-term solutions, repairing the air leaks is a quick win!

Repair compressed air leaks

RePress

Now that we have located the air leaks with AIRScan leak detection, the next step is to repair them. Traditionally, this required depressurizing the air net and stopping production. That's why known leakages often remained unresolved for years, costing a fortune on energy.

With RePress, leaks are fixed while the distribution net is under pressure, and without dismantling pipes or couplings.

Optimize your energy efficiency

Optimizer 4.0 / Equalizer 4.0 PRO / Equalizer 4.0

If your compressed air system has multiple compressors or blowers, they have to be started, stopped and regulated to meet fluctuations in air demand. In a traditional system, the output pressure often exceeds the required pressure, resulting in a cost increase.

Our master controllers Optimizer 4.0, Equalizer 4.0 PRO and Equalizer 4.0 offer a much smarter solution. By automating compressor operation, they increase system stability, minimize wear and achieve optimal energy efficiency.

Recover Thermal Energy

Energy Recovery

During air compression, heat is generated. This is diverted to the cooling system and released into the atmosphere. However, this thermal energy can be put to good use.

That's where Energy Recovery comes in. It recovers the heat so it can be used for workspace heating, hot water or industrial processes. Your compressor is “creating” energy. Don't let it go to waste!

You've made considerable progress in reducing your energy consumption. But how do you keep your energy efficiency on track?

Monitor your savings

SMARTLINK - SMART AIRnet

SMARTLINK is not limited to the boundaries of the compressor room. Thanks to SMART AIRnet and its smart, wireless sensors, you can monitor your entire compressed air installation from the heart of your compressor to the point of use. Offering more opportunities to improve the energy efficiency and optimize the pressure, air flow and air quality of your compressed air network.

Detailed reports help you keep track of your energy efficiency, also allowing Energy Management according to ISO 50001.
