Compressed air can account for 15 – 30% of a factory electric bill. VSD technology is the single biggest energy-saving measure:
- VSD matches air output to real demand, eliminating unload running loss
- Permanent magnet motors maintain high efficiency even at partial load
- Typical payback period: 1 – 2 years
More Ways to Save
- Fix leaks — a 3 mm hole wastes about 2.3 m³/min
- Reduce pressure band settings to the minimum required
- Recover compressor waste heat for water heating
- Service intake filters regularly to reduce motor load
