Wasting Ways - Calling All Manufacturers

It’s no secret that compressed air is costly. In a typical industrial compressed air system, 30% of system energy usage can be saved through cost-effective measures.

There are many ways to save and we’re here to help show you! 

Planning for Success

Having a baseline is important, so if you don’t have one or are new to the position, take charge and start now. Not only will your boss be impressed, but you will be able to see the difference you make for your company with actual figures and numbers.  

Checking system pressure at several locations can identify undersized piping or valves at devices that can cause low air pressure (picture provided by Compressed Air Best Practice) 

After a walk-through and a conversation, we will take care of things. Using data loggers, we will be able to collect enough data, go back and analyze, and present the findings, as well as solutions, and be a supportive team member every step of the way. 

The numbers don’t lie

When a company was growing, they planned to make modifications to their existing production by adding new machinery, they were considering how it will affect their air consumption. They collected a quote for a competitor based on the additional air requirements for the new machinery. We provided an audit and found that they were using just over 50% of the air available, leaving plenty of room for them to grow with their existing system. A new machine would have cost thousands of dollars, as well as maintenance and operating costs. 

Real-time data is available for everything in our lives; news, weather, banking, etc. Why should it be any different with your plants' energy consumption? Whether you’re renovating, redesigning or retrofitting, perform an audit with Airmax. We understand there is more to your system than a compressor.
