Energy Efficiency & Variable Speed Drives

Align Energy to Air Demand

Adjusting motor speed for optimum performance, drawing power in direct proportion to the load. Energy consumption approximates zero at no-load vs. full-voltage drives consuming between 13% to 85% of their full-load consumption.

Eliminate Current Spikes on Startup

Eliminates in-rush current & amperage surges on start-up by gradually starting motor speed - contributing to overall energy efficiency.

Eliminate Artificial Demand

Pressure tracking controls ensure that energy-use is optimized by producing only as much air as is needed at set pressure, avoiding artificial demand.

Ideal for Fluctuating Air Demand

Delivers maximum operating flexibility with efficient full & part load performance.

Compressed Air Lifecycle Costs

The initial fixed cost of a rotary screw air compressor is only a fraction of it’s total lifecycle or operational cost → The greatest proportion of costs incurred in the operation of a compressed air system are it’s energy costs.

Save Energy with Variable-Speed Drives

VSD’s are a considerable opportunity in reducing cumulative energy costs → Up to 24%.

Qualify For Energy-Saving Program Incentives?

Upgrading to variable-speed air compressors qualifies for cash-rebates from local utility or government energy-savings programs in many areas. Save a considerable amount off your investment.
