Some people call compressed air the fourth utility after electricity, water and gas, because it uses so much energy. In most compressed air systems, well over 70% of the electricity powering the system ends up as waste heat. Despite their inefficiency, compressed air systems are important in many manufacturing, healthcare and other environments where they (and steam systems) deliver force without the risk of igniting a fire.

As we are all urged to save energy, adopting an energy-saving strategy as a part of a business efficiency program will be beneficial to save money and creating a sustainable lifestyle for future generations.

Customer challenges:

Air leakage may have been one of the biggest factors that causing energy and money loss. With the amount of air leakage, it will indirectly impact the machine’s optimization. Thus, it will be risen up the utility bills and may impact the total working capital.

The long investigation process time to find out about the air leaking part compressor is also affected and interrupting the production and affect productivity.

GAIN COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

As world leaders in pneumatics, SMC has designed different series of energy saving product range, which will help to lower power consumption and decrease air wastage as well as helping to fight in protecting our environment.

Pressure and flow monitoring products are designed to monitor the condition of air consumption. It comes with an LED display which allow user to monitor the condition easily. The monitoring products consist of the MEMS sensor and allow detecting the flow. It comes with the indicator to notify user when there is air leaking happens.

An ergonomic and robust designed body with patented valve design and KN nozzles of the air bowing products produces considerably reduced in pressure losses. It only required a minimum actuation force. Pressure Booster comes with the built-in mesh filter at IN port have improved the reliability of the products. It consists of the floating piston structure and a grease retaining groove which allowed a longer service life of the machine. Most importantly, the SMC pressure booster needs no electrical supply.

Benefit

Any air leakage is detectable and controlled by using the flow switches. It comes with the indicator to alert and fasten the investigation process of air leakage. It saves a lot in terms of manpower usage as well as minimized interruption and increases productivity.

Booster regulators provide a vast increase in factory air pressure. The pressure can be increased up to twice with no need for electrical supply, but the only air operation required. Productivity can be increased with the same energy consumption. In addition, the booster also helps to reduce the cost of upgrading the compressor and save on the electrical bills.

Ergonomically designed body with patented valve design and KN nozzles produces considerably reduction in pressure losses. Including 2 connection options.

Can increase factory air by a maximum of 200%, Power supply not required. It is possible to get a maximum of double the existing pressure by connecting the air to a factory line. (VBA11A: maximum 4 times). Space-saving type that directly connects air tanks and booster regulators.
