SMARTLINK: next-generation connectivity with your wireless air compressor
Atlas Copco’s new VSDs compressors are true marvels of engineering: ultra-efficient, extremely reliable and incredibly flexible. Moreover, in the era of the Internet of Things, they were equipped with outstanding connectivity options to allow you to monitor and optimize their performance from anywhere.
How does SMARTLINK help you remotely monitor your wireless air compressor?
The innovative SMARTlink platform allows users to take full advantage of the efficiency and performance features the VSDs compressors have to offer:
- It connects with the Elektronikon® controller of a GA VSDs, allowing you to monitor in real time your compressor’s operational parameters.
- SMARTLINK lets users keep an eye on 30 datapoints – from pressure and temperature to operating mode and running hours.
- Ordinarily, sifting through this much data may be confusing, but not with SMARTLINK. The app translates the information into easy-to-use and understand insights.
- You’ll be able to consult those insights on your computer and mobile device, depending on what you prefer.
SMARTLINK helps your wireless air compressor run better
Besides the day-to-day monitoring of your GA VSDs, SMARTlink also helps it run better:
- SMARTLINK insights provides you with performance data and insights to explore optimization options, collaborating with Atlas Copco experts if you prefer.
- In addition, SMARTLINK improves air system uptime and reliability, sending out alerts whenever the VSDs needs attention. This ensures that you can take action to address small issues before they become bigger problems.
For example, by using shock pulse monitoring Atlas Copco can keep an eye on critical components. When these need to be replaced, users will receive an alert, which helps avoid production disruptions. - SMARTLINK also provides a service timeline that shows the service status of the VSDs compressor along with a calendar of planned visits and easy-to-understand service reports.
- Finally, the app holds an entire library of instruction manuals, installation guides, videos, and much more related to the compressor. And, if these documents don’t provide an answer, then SMARTLINK can even connect VSDs to an Atlas Copco representative or dealer.

What else makes the VSDs an exceptional wireless air compressor?
SMARLINK’s wireless technology to help you remotely monitor and improve your air compressor, is only one of the components contributing to the VSDs‘s high-end quality:
- The unique drive train, offers efficiency that another air end could never achieve
- The inverter technology greatly reduces the amount of energy needed
- Its oil cooling system, helps the series achieve IE 5 efficiency, allowing the VSDs to cut down on CO2 emissions
Thanks to the Boost Flow Mode, you can safely exceed maximum capacity when you need it most
- You’ll save time and streamline your processes thanks to the VSDs’s high-end machine-to-machine communication
VSD stands for variable speed drive. Hidden behind these letters is (inverter) technology that automatically adjusts the compressor’s motor speed to the compressed air demand in real time. This often saves a lot of energy and money. Find out in this e-book how a VSD can work for you.
