Industrial compressed air system

Identify savings in your compressed air system

Up to 10% of electricity consumption in industries is used to generate compressed air and 95% of this energy is lost as waste heat in the process. Additionally, some compressed air generated “disappears” due to leakages in the supply network. Nevertheless, financial losses due to inefficient compressed air systems continue to be underestimated, ignored, or accepted as a given.

This can be mitigated with energy management solutions, allowing you to reliably identify weaknesses and savings potential in your compressed air systems, and permanently monitor the specific energy consumption of compressors.

Efficiency in compressed air systems

Energy saving opportunities such as minimizing leaks and monitoring filters to cut pressure can be implemented to ensure maximum efficiency in your compressed air systems. Compressed air should ideally be dry because moisture can eventually lead to failure of the compressed air system.  Utilizing instruments like the Endress+Hauser t-mass I 500 to measure flow can ensure the safety of your airline compressors while monitoring the pressure will keep your energy loss low.

Air compressor system efficiency can be improved by:

  • Minimizing leaks and monitoring filters
  • Taking in air for compressors at the coldest point
  • Utilizing waste compressor heat
  • Reducing system operating pressure
  • Idling compressors during downtime
  • Continuously monitoring compressor efficiency, informing maintenance intervals

Monitor your compressed air systems with smart instruments

In addition to electrical energy losses, up to 30% of compressed air generated “disappears” due to leakages in the supply network. However, incorporating appropriate maintenance measures can reduce the latter figure to around 10-20%, lowering power consumption. In large-scale systems , this can equate to hundred-thousand-dollar savings annually.

Using Endress+Hauser’s energy management solutions, users can reliably identify weaknesses and savings potential in compressed air systems, while monitoring energy consumption to compressed air generation ratios specific to each compressor.
