In the 21st century, global companies must not only satisfy economic interests, but also pay attention to environmental protection and social responsibility。As a leading global supplier of production equipment, Atlas Copco (Atlas) Copco is actively responding to this call and is committed to achieving greener and more efficient production。In the previous articleAtlas Wuxi compressorXiaobian introduces the one to four steps of Atlas Copco to achieve more green and efficient production. Today, Atlas Wuxi Compressor Xiaobian introduces to you the collection and collection of core technologies to achieve more green and efficient production (five). The details are as follows:

Green investments save energy and money

The steps mentioned in the previous article only involve eliminating inefficiencies or giving you a better understandingYour compressed air system, and some measures to save energy and money need to be in the initial investment。

Before to make the investment, must have a very clear understanding to the current system, such as gas demand, traffic, etc。Otherwise, you are likely to waste a lot of money, such as buying compressor production is much higher than the application needs, or buying a dryer that is not needed,Nevertheless, proper investment will pay off in the long run。

Although most efficient air equipment is expensive, including oursQuality products, but in the long run (and machines built specifically for long-term use), they will save you money。

Keep in mind that for compressors or other compressed air equipment, energy costs account for the vast majority of the total cost of ownership, far exceeding the initial investment and all maintenance costs。

So don't be put off by the high prices。If you buy cheap compressed air equipment, the final cost will be greater, and in the process will harm the environment。

Different compressor types and their advantages

There are many different types of air compressors, each with different advantages depending on the working pressure and air capacity requirements。Here is an overview of the main techniques you can refer to when choosing the right machine。

Piston compressor: load and no-load are very efficient, but the high cost of maintenance。It is very efficient at the time of purchase, but becomes less and less efficient with the wear and tear caused by sliding contact。

Turbine compressor: mainly used in applications that require oil-free clean small air flow。More suitable for intermittent gas applications。Easy to maintain。

Gear compressors: Oil-free gear compressors are used in small and medium sized applications, typically with power between 15 and 55 kilowatts。Suitable for both intermittent and continuous applications。

Screw compressors: These compressors are popular and are used in a variety of different applications, ranging from small shop floor applications with intermittent requirements to large industrial applications with continuous requirements 24 hours a day。Screw compressor is lubricated in oil Can be used in both oil-free and oil-free technologies to maintain efficiency in the face of a wide variety of flow rates。

Centrifugal compressor: This is an efficient technology for large capacity compressed air。However, it must be continuously operated, so it is only suitable for stable gas applications。
