Sustainability is no doubt a key focused point for UAE and the Middle East region. And as industries progress, air compressors have played a significant part in the evolution of many industrial processes, the need for a reliable compressed air system which allows you to save money and increases overall productivity is more and more important.  

Right from complex process applications to general manufacturing and service or maintenance shops, have the need for quality compressed air to get the job done quickly and in the most efficient way.

However, not all businesses are ready to embrace the need for “going green”. One reason is that many executives still believe that green investments are prohibitively expensive. Nothing could be further from reality. 

11 ways to make your compressor installation energy efficient

In many cases, the return on investment of environment-friendly technology is excellent. While the initial purchase price may be higher, this equipment will quickly pay for itself through energy savings, visible on the electricity bill. On a very small scale, think of traditional lightbulbs and the more expensive LED lights. Sure, the latter is more expensive, but they outlast their predecessors by years and consume much less energy.

Likewise, new models of air compressors are more environment friendly than ever. For example, Variable Speed Drive compressors can increase energy efficiency by following your variable air demand pattern and save up to 50% on power. Another factor can be completely oil free for better air quality and savings from pressure drops.

Also the controls on today’s efficient compressors are an updated technology that can constantly optimize your process and monitor faults and even alert on timely maintenance intervals.

The same is true for many other green investments – on a much larger scale. Compressed air being the fourth utility after electricity, water, and gas, is a major consumer of power for any facility. Having an approach to prioritize overall system efficiency has many benefits as follows:

1. Energy savings

energy-saving-with-vsd
Energy savings are a major economic benefit. In the case of an air compressor, for example, electricity costs make up 80% of the total cost of ownership. As a result, an energy-efficient model will quickly pay for itself. As an example, one of the many features on today’s compressors can be dual set-point and automatic stop. Using smart unit controllers, you can switch between two setpoints to optimize energy use and reduce cost at low use times. The drive motor runs only when needed.

2. Meeting government emission standards

Hoping to meet their climate change goals, governments are increasingly putting in place regulations to reduce pollution and promote efficiency. As a result, companies purchasing outdated equipment now may soon find themselves on the wrong side of tighter emission standards. 

Only investments in cutting-edge, efficient technology can ensure that machinery will be in compliance with new environmental rules for a long time to come.  

3. Improved air quality

The compressors of today do not release harmful smoke or other waste gases that could be a hazard in the working environment and around. Also, clean air reduces operational costs.

Above this use of oil free technology offers complete risk-free production, keeping the system up and running smoothly. No fear of contamination, product spoilage or lost hours in valuable time.

4. Lower noise levels

Most of the compressors produced today are silent machines making them eco-friendly. Better internal components and sound absorbing qualities like canopy contributes to safer noise levels in the workplace. 

5. Hybrid solution

Today a wide range of users are seen within a facility for multiple applications that may have varying demands or operating pressures. Common compressor for medium and high pressure application is automatically programmed for its precise needs and thereby saving on floorspace, installation and maintenance activities. 

6. Maximum uptimes

Timely maintenance and inspection of any utility is the key to system optimization. Proper and regular maintenance using genuine spares with checks on equipment as well as ancillaries including air piping for leakages is part of the ensuring overall system efficiency, helping you consume less energy in return for maximized output.

7. Attracting customers and building brand loyalty

Research and polling have shown that customers increasingly value companies that help protect the environment. In the age of social media, this is especially important.

Businesses do not want to be branded as polluters or as dragging their feet on switching to green technologies. Always keep in mind that nobody has been boycotted yet for consuming too little energy or being too green.

Use of VSD compressors help reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to reducing environmental impact by saving on your power bills.

8. Improved occupational safety and health

For example by providing cleaner air at work. That, in turn, means fewer sick days and a healthier, more energetic staff.  

Conclusion

As you can see, from direct financial benefits to marketing considerations and health safety, green investment is not just a smart investment in the present but also in the future.
