The compressor is so quiet that we were able to locate the unit inside the warehouse. If we went with the other manufacturer we had considered, we would have had to build a dedicated compressor room due to the noise levels.
I love how reliable our compressor is. I don’t have to worry about it not working, or any downtime. We bought it a year and a half ago and still don’t need to service it.
In a food industry like this, we have to be impeccably clean and reliable. Our Atlas Copco system delivers. Atlas Copco compressors had all the things we wanted, including innovative design, energy efficiency, and dependability. We have had excellent success with the entire compressed air system.
The ROI on this project is incredible. It’s absolutely a no-brainer. Power consumption facility-wide is down by 15,000 kw/h every month. We are out of pocket for nothing and when the loan is paid off that 15,000 kw/h per month savings will be going right in our pocket.
Now we have very efficient, very reliable compressors, plus a maintenance package, so we’re pretty autonomous. I would totally recommend Atlas Copco. I already have.
Initially we had a small piston compressor, about 4 hp, but the scroll compressor is a much better unit. It’s quiet and more than sufficient for the needs we have. I couldn’t be happier with the response that I’ve gotten from Atlas Copco.
