Central control

The ES 16 controller from Atlas Copco Compressors can be connected to up to 16 compressors, providing one central point of control for an entire compressed air network as it retrieves and processes information coming from compressors, dryers and other measurement equipment.

The result, says the company, is an efficient network that helps to save, on average, 10% of energy use in a compressor room.

Compressors and dryers can be connected to the controller by means of a CAN network. The device stores machine and sensor data for up to one week.

This allows users to see graphs and trends for analysis on the ES user interface and it can also be consulted through the internet.
