Did you know that compressed air generation can amount to over 40% of a plant’s total electricity bill? And that energy consumption can account for over 80% of a compressor’s lifecycle cost? For businesses serious who would want to increase their profits, the energy consumption is an obvious target and one of the leading design priorities of Atlas Copco.
Building energy savings into your process
Energy-saving componentsOur engineers took every opportunity to reduce energy consumption of these machines. Our unique patented elements are designed in-house for maximum efficiency. A superior coating on the active surfaces of the stainless steel rotors contributes to the efficiency of our new dual speed technology. A unique Z seal design further reduces running costs and guarantees 100% certified oil-free air for your application. Oil-free Tooth ElementOur in-house designed oil-free tooth element boosts efficiency by delivering consistent, high-performance compression with minimal energy loss. Its streamlined design ensures low unload power, helping the machine use less energy while maintaining top output. MotorThe IE5 permanent magnet motor in our oil-free tooth FLX machine achieves up to 97% energy efficiency, ensuring maximum power conversion and reduced energy consumption during operation Neos NextOur patented NEOS Next drives improve energy efficiency by minimizing power use during unload and enabling smart speed control across varying air demands. VSD cooling fansThe completely redesigned cooling air flow supported by a VSD cooling fan ensures maximum energy savings during unload. Advanced control algorithmsAdvanced algorithms control your equipment to save energy when demand is low. For example, timer functions can stop your machines at night and during the weekend if no compressed air is needed. Alternatively, a dual pressure band can be implemented with lower pressure settings for these periods. |
