Boge has introduced AIReport, a compressed air auditing system which can simultaneously analyse up to 12 compressors. Logged data will then identify where compressed air savings can be made, leading to an optimised compressed air system and reduced energy costs.
Running an energy-efficient compressed air system is one way to miminise operating costs. Fixing air leaks, adapting compressed air demand to changes in manufacturing or production patterns and, where appropriate, upgrading to energy-efficient technologies such as a frequency controlled screw compressor will reduce waste and can lead to significant energy savings.
Up to 12 compressors can be logged simultaneously with the AIReport, allowing a professional evaluation of the entire compressor station. AIReport additionally measures the associated equipment such as the compressed air dryer. Data logged can then be graphically viewed, including reports on pressure dew point, flow rate, net pressure profile and so on. This data accumulates into a report which highlights the current cost of any system inefficiencies such as idling times.
By analysing the existing compressed air system wastage can be identified and actions taken to eliminate unnecessary costs.
