Upgrade to the new Elektronikon Control unit



Elektronikon®
is an advanced control system from Atlas Copco, considered the electronic brain of the air compressor. It enhances performance, reduces energy consumption, and enables smart remote monitoring. Keep your plant ahead of the curve and aligned with the Industry 4.0 revolution.

 

 

Key Advantages of the Elektronikon® Control Panel

Energy Saving

Contributes to reducing up to 80% of operating costs related to energy consumption through:

  • Delayed Second Stop: Automatically stops the compressor when there is no air demand.

  • Dual Pressure Range: Allows adjustment of operating pressure to suit peak and off-peak periods, such as holidays and weekends.

  • Automatic Motor Speed Control: Adapts to actual air demand to minimize energy consumption.

Smart Control of the Compressor System

Collects data from multiple sensors in the compressor, such as temperature, pressure, and operating time, and analyzes it in real-time. Enables scheduling of operations, reviewing maintenance history, and planning future maintenance tasks.

Integration with Smartphones

With Elektronikon®‎, you can easily connect your control unit to mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones through our SMARTLINK system, enabling monitoring via mobile devices over a secure network.

System Protection Using IoT and Industry 4.0 Technology

The built-in sensors measure parameters such as temperature and pressure. This way, Elektronikon® gives you peace of mind, as the automatic alarm system sends alerts to your mobile device via SMARTLINK in case of any malfunction or performance irregularities.

New Control Units: Elektronikon MK5 Controllers

The new Elektronikon Touch and Elektronikon Swipe controllers are more than just control units—they are the brain behind your compressed air system. Features include:

  • Modern, easy-to-use, high-resolution touch screen

  • Multi-language support

  • Programmable operating schedules for energy saving

  • Real-time monitoring of temperature, pressure, and vital components

  • Instant fault display with direct alert notifications

  • Local Area Network (LAN) connectivity

  • Ability to link and operate multiple compressors in sequence

  • Maintenance history tracking and advanced fault planning

  • Intelligent response to actual air demand

    Connectivity to the SMARTLINK platform:

  •  24/7 remote equipment performance monitoring
  •  Proactive monitoring to protect equipment, reduce downtime, and alert when replacement is needed
  •  Direct alerts and recommendations sent to your computer or smartphone

 

When should you upgrade to the new Elektronikon MK5 Controllers?

Consider upgrading your Elektronikon control unit if:
  • Your current Elektronikon unit is outdated (MK1, MK2, MK3, MK4) and no longer supported or lacks available spare parts.

  • You experience issues with the screen, such as unresponsiveness, malfunctioning buttons, screen or connection damage, or software limitations.

  • You want to enable remote monitoring via the SmartLink platform or use advanced diagnostic tools.

  • You wish to improve your compressor’s efficiency through updated and advanced control logic.
