What is Variable Speed Drive?
In most industrial operations, the demand for compressed air fluctuates. A variable speed drive (inverter) air compressor automatically adjusts the compressor’s operating speed to match this demand in real-time, which can save you up to 50% on energy. Turn that percentage into Egyptian pounds, and you’re looking at some serious cost savings.
When to use a variable speed compressor?
Variable Speed Drive compressors are designed for the industrial users when:
- Demand for compressed air fluctuates significantly between jobs.
- Demand varies by shift, on weekends or seasonally.
- Manufacturing processes require tight tolerances for operating pressure
The industrial sector’s consumption of electric energy is the second largest after the domestic sector in Egypt, Therefore, we highlight in this article, the technology of variable speed air compressors, which saves energy up to 60% which results in saving lots of money for manufacturers in the Egyptian market.
