Six steps to optimize your Air
System
Demand Side
1. Establish your correct air needs
for the points-of-use (Flow & Pressure)
2.
Establish the leakage in your
system and proactively manage the same
3.
Analyse the System Capacitance
& optimize the same
4. Track the pressure profiles across the plant to match the supply & demand and also minimise the pressure drops
Supply Side
5. Evaluate the health of the compressors and the support systems
6. Optimise the controls to match
the system dynamics
Note: A detailed system audit done through a professional consultant
can help in achieving the above objectives

Ingersoll-Rand
is one of the leading manufacturers of all types of air compressors such as Air-cooled reciprocating type, air and water cooled Rotary screw type, large
reciprocating & centrifugal compressors. Ingersoll rand also cater to all
associated equipments & accessories used in the compressed air system.
Ingersoll-Rand
is also focusing aggressively to assist various industries & in particularly
the textile towards "Encon in compressed air system". Compressed air system is not static but is a dynamic system. The need and requirement keep changing
or fluctuating like the demand of textile in this highly dynamic market.
Reducing the operating cost has become very essential and there is a potential
of reducing energy cost in compressed air by 10-50% in most of the Industries. Ingersoll
Rand can support any textile industries interested in reducing their energy
costs in compressed air by conducting a compressed air Audit. Before we
conclude the last reminder but not least, "Air is free but compressed air is not!!".
