How can we help?
Help with energy saving
Energy consumption accounts for up to 70% of the lifecycle cost of an air compressor installation.
Search Air will work with you to analyse, optimise, and monitor your compressed air system to reduce energy use by making sure your system is matched to your demand and help with energy saving.
For example, air compression generates heat, and recovering this thermal energy is a proven way to improve your plant’s overall efficiency by using hot air as space heating or using the heat of the oil to provide valuable heat for uses such as central heating or hot water applications.
We use the latest monitoring and air compressor control technologies to detect problems and give you system stability with maximum uptime.
In addition to installing variable speed drive air compressors, air compressor controllers, air saver ball valves and compressed air heat recovery we would also look at your compressed air dryers, filters and condensate drains for ways to save energy.
Our compressed air energy savings calculator will provide you with an indication of what can be achieved.
Calculate your potential savings
Using the energy calculator, you can estimate how much money and energy you could save if you replaced your old compressor with a VSD+ compressor.
We see many facilities that have fluctuations in air demand, most could benefit from a VSD+ compressor.
You can also ask the Search Air Team to measure your installation and compressed air requirement.
We saved our clients a total of 1.4 million pounds last year in annual energy costs by replacing inefficient air compressors with new variable speed drive air compressors.
You can do the check for your own system with our online tool.
