Achieve low emissions with efficient air compressors

VSD skinny block 2

Low emissions will be mandatory for businesses in the future and are quickly becoming the norm. If you use industrial compressors in your operations, chances are you could benefit from the latest energy-efficient equipment to meet today’s and tomorrow standards.


In addition to producing fewer emissions, you might discover that new machines can reduce your operational expenses. Since industrial compressors are estimated to comprise up to 40% of a company’s energy costs, investing in efficient equipment can save a lot.


If you’re looking to meet green standards now, and cut energy costs, you might want to explore Atlas Copco's variable speed drive (VSD) compressors. In some instances, you can benefit from government incentives for working towards a carbon-neutral future now.


The latest air compressors from Atlas Copco are designed to be cleaner and more energy-efficient than their predecessors. Since our team is always innovating to meet new standards, you’ll benefit from the latest technology.

For maximum energy savings, opt for our GA VSDS air compressors. Built with a Ferrite-Assisted Synchronous Reluctance (FASR) motor and Neos Next inverter, you can greatly reduce energy consumption. In fact, a GA VSDS delivers up to 60% in energy savings. Not to mention, the FASR motor contains no rare earth metals – a double win for the environment.

Reduce emissions and energy costs

As mentioned above, a VSD compressor is an excellent choice for maximum efficiency. Compared to fixed speed models, they require less power. This reduction is based on how a VSD operates. Rather than creating the same level of air flow all day, a VSD adapts to demand. This versatility is made possible with different motor speeds.

 

To help run your air compressor with optimal air delivery, Atlas Copco offers monitoring tools like SMARTLINK. This technology allows you to assess your compressor remotely, and provides useful data and analytics related to performance.

 

In addition, you can use this information to avoid downtime and keep your machine in top shape. SMARTLINK will help you detect issues before they become a major problem.

When combining SMARTLINK with the efficiency of a VSD air compressor, you can reduce emissions and cut energy costs.

Operating a green factory

As pointed out in the introduction, it’s worth meeting green standards now. This urgency is due to increasing regulations from governments to reduce emissions and improve air quality. In addition to upgrading your air compressor set up, there are other measures you can take.

 

If you want to become carbon-neutral as fast as possible, investing in solar panels is a great solution. Switching from fossil fuel dependence can help cut emissions, improve air health, and lower energy costs. Let your factory set new standards on what it means to be green and do your part in the transition to a low-carbon economy and society.

Achieving low emissions

The best way to begin achieving low emissions is with a comprehensive energy and emissions assessment of your operations. As mentioned in the introduction, you may find out that your old equipment is the reason why operational costs are relatively high.

As always, our team is here to help find the best low emission solution for you. Contact us today to find out how to improve your office's carbon footprint and meet tomorrow's standards.
