Air & nitrogen
September 1st 2009 New compressed air generation and
nitrogen production units from
Atlas Copco have been
installed at Haith's
birdfoods production
plant in Grimsby to help
improve energy
efficiency and increase
the shelf life of packaged
products.
Plant air at an average
pressure between 7-10 bar and
output in the range of 15-82L/s is
provided by a GA30 VSD rotary
screw compressor, which also feeds
air to an NG27 nitrogen generator.
The variable speed drive
allows automatic
adjustment of flow and
pressure to match the
demands of the
generator unit and,
when necessary, the
flow can be uprated
by adjusting the
pressure setting of the
VSD compressor. More articles from Atlas Copco Ltd: |
