Why Should You Consider an Oil-sealed Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump System?
Get the best reliability under the toughest conditions. Oil-sealed liquid ring vacuum pump systems give maximum reliability under the toughest conditions. These highly efficient systems are known for their simple design and low maintenance needs due to the lack of wearing parts. Compared to other vacuum pump systems, these systems offer advantage of no metal-to-metal […]
Photoelectric Optical Sensors Increase Production Efficiency
In today’s environment, there is unrelenting pressure to manufacture products faster, more precisely, and at a lower cost per unit. As a result, industrial manufacturers increasingly try to find new ways to increase production rates while eliminating any unnecessary costs. In order to meet these needs, factory automation has become and will continue to be […]
The Right Regenerative Air Dryer for Your Compressed Air System
The presence of water in compressed air systems can cause major problems. Consider this: a typical 100 HP compressed air system at common ambient conditions generates as much as 40 gallons of water in a 24-hour period. As a result, industries lose millions of dollars each year from lost production, increased maintenance costs, and a […]
Centralized Compressor Control Systems Save Energy
The Department of Energy estimates that compressor air generation consumes 10% of electrical energy use in the US. Furthermore, 70% of all manufacturing facilities use compressed air in some aspect of their manufacturing. These facts highlight the reason why companies with compressed air systems are investigating the potential for energy savings. You may be analyzing […]
Does your Facility’s Fluid Cooling System Really Require Chilled Water?
Misapplications in fluid cooling can cost companies energy and money. Over the last 25 years there has been a heightened awareness to reduce the consumption of both water and energy. Water and energy are not an unlimited resource. As regulations concerning the use and disposal of water have intensified, applications that use both resources have […]
What A Compressed Air Audit Can Tell You
Generally, you would be seeking out a Compressed Air Audit to define a system baseline and to determine where inefficiencies are happening within your system. By having an audit performed or doing one yourself, you are ultimately hoping to reduce your operating costs. These operating costs can be high because of many different malfunctions or […]
