Compressor Management System

You focus on your project, CMS manages the air.

The CMS is your all-in-one control center for compressed air equipment. Instead of managing machines one by one, CMS lets you define the strategy and set the setpoint. It handles the rest. From smart start-stop routines to balancing running hours and reducing idle time, CMS ensures your equipment works based on your requirements.

Centralized control, smarter air management

With CMS all your compressors are connected into a single, intelligent network. Set your desired pressure or flow, and CMS handles the rest – starting, stopping, and adjusting machines automatically. Housed in a steady, portable box, CMS integrates easily into any installation, giving you full control whether you're onshore or offshore. No more managing machines individually. Now, you manage the air.

Increased efficiency

CMS makes all your units perform in unison. In a set up that runs without CMS, energy losses are inevitable because the system cannot closely follow the air demand. However, CMS precisely matches the output of the machines to the process demands. The CMS automatically starts, stops or loads units. It prioritizes more efficient equiment and uses the full potential of variable speed drive (VSD) units. Fuel consumption is optimized, saving energy, reducing CO2 emmissions and therefore saving costs. Which all contribute to your sustainability goals.

Steady air supply

Traditional solutions depend on pressure cascades to work effectively. This avoids the regulating systems to conflict with each other and reduces the pressure band. While the solution may be working, the pressure build up results in an increased energy consumption and the pressure band increases the stress on the air net. The CMS avoids this by operating within a tighter, pre-set pressure band.  This reduces stress on the system, cuts energy costs and keeps performance stable.  While traditional setups relay on a pressure cascade, CMS delivers consistent, stable performance - protecting your process and improving overall air quality.

Reliability

The CMS maximizes uptime by automating operational tasks. It switches the primary compressors to spread the running hours and undertake other actions based on equipment health metrics. By continuously monitoring battery status, soot levels and other parameters, it ensures every unit - including backups - is always ready to perform. Is a battery level getting low on an equipment? This becomes the primary equipment to regenerate the battery. This all results in fewer manual interventions and less surprises. With CMS in control, you stay focused on your operation.

Ease of use

CMS saves you time by evenly distributing the load across all connected compressors. This smart synchronization keeps running hours aligned, making it easier to schedule maintenance and reduce on-site interventions, therefore saving time and operation costs. With all units reaching service intervals together, downtime is minimized, and planning becomes effortless. And with a user-friendly interface, control is always at your fingertips using a single controller. 

Ready to take control?

The compressor management system is the smarter way to manage the air supply you need. Simply set your air requirements, CMS takes care of the rest.

CMS makes your compressed air system smarter, safer and more efficient, so you can focus on your main operation tasks, not equipment.
