What's next?

Now you know what the savings opportunities are. Before starting to implement long-term solutions, repairing the air leaks is a quick win!

Repair compressed air leaks

RePress

Now that we have located the air leaks with AIRScan leak detection, the next step is to repair them. Traditionally, this required depressurizing the air net and stopping production. That's why known leakages often remained unresolved for years, costing a fortune on energy.

With RePress, leaks are fixed while the distribution net is under pressure, and without dismantling pipes or couplings.

NO DOWNTIME

With RePress, there is no need to depressurize or disassemble the air distribution net.
QUICK

RePress is a fast and easy method to fix leaks without having to stop your compressed air production to replace components.
SUSTAINABLE

Compared to the traditional method of fixing pipe systems with threaded connections, RePress leakage repairs are much less susceptible to leaking again over time.
Stop blowing money away

Activate RePress
Did you know?
- By repairing air leaks, you can save 20 to 30% of energy.

What's next?

Now you can start implementing additional solutions to cut your energy costs.

Optimize your energy efficiency

Optimizer 4.0 / Equalizer 4.0 PRO / Equalizer 4.0

If your compressed air system has multiple compressors or blowers, they have to be started, stopped and regulated to meet fluctuations in air demand. In a traditional system, the output pressure often exceeds the required pressure, resulting in a cost increase.

Our master controllers Optimizer 4.0, Equalizer 4.0 PRO and Equalizer 4.0 offer a much smarter solution. By automating compressor operation, they increase system stability, minimize wear and achieve optimal energy efficiency.

EFFICIENCY

Our master controllers automatically select the best mix of compressors to match the air demand at any given time, resulting in maximum energy savings.
AUTOMATION

Our master controllers are fully automated and do not require supervision. This means you can use your manpower for core activities.
CONNECTIVITY

Our master controllers provide the option to connect your machines through LAN or via a cloud-based monitoring system, enabling you to follow up on energy efficiency and maintenance performance.

Did you know?
- All our master controllers can control other brands of machines.
- Each 1 bar pressure reduction reduces energy consumption by 7% and leaks by 13%.

Recover Thermal Energy

Energy Recovery

During air compression, heat is generated. This is diverted to the cooling system and released into the atmosphere. However, this thermal energy can be put to good use.

That's where Energy Recovery comes in. It recovers the heat so it can be used for workspace heating, hot water or industrial processes. Your compressor is “creating” energy. Don't let it go to waste!

ENERGY SAVINGS

Using the recovered heat from your compressor eliminates the need to invest in additional equipment, prevents extra CO₂ emissions and reduces your overall energy footprint.
COMPACT

Energy Recovery comes as a compact, space-saving unit, installed between the compressor and your heating circuit or directly into the canopy.
A COOLER ROOM

As compression heat is no longer released into the surrounding air, this reduces the temperature in the compressor room, benefiting the reliable performance of your equipment.
Re-use thermal energy from your compressor

Activate Energy Recovery
Did you know?
- Up to 94% of the electrical energy in a compressor is transformed into heat.
- Up to 80% of this thermal energy can be recovered.
