Helping cut energy consumption

The Air Saver Unit uses pulsed air technology. At its core is a switching valve that converts continuous air blow into pulsed air blow without the need for any additional external control. Put simply, it creates air that is blown in a series of high speed on and off pulses; when the blow is off, there is no air consumption, resulting in fewer tank recharging cycles.

As well as a reduction in air consumption, the unit offers other advantages that include savings in compressor power, a reduction in overall CO2 emissions and a significant contribution to energy-saving activities. 

The Air Saver Unit is also extremely easy to install. At plants using electrically operated solenoid valves to control air blowing, the units can be quickly and easily retrofitted to straightaway  deliver a reduction in air consumption with no significant system changes i.e. PLC program reconfiguration. For plants using manual ball valves, there are also passive versions of the Air Saver Unit series; these do not require any electrical power.

In total there are seven models in the Air Saver Unit range, offering flows (at 5 bar) from 150 to 15,000 l/min.
