Energy-efficient compressed air with maximum efficiency

Modern compressed air installations need to be reliable, efficient and energy-saving. That is why almost all our compressors are equipped with a variable speed drive, also known as VSD. A variable speed drive compressor automatically adjusts the motor speed to the actual air demand. As a result, the machine produces exactly the amount of compressed air needed at that moment, leading to significantly lower energy consumption and a much more efficient compressor installation.

Why choose a variable speed drive compressor?

Traditional compressors often operate with a fixed motor speed or star-delta starter. This means the motor always runs at the same speed, regardless of whether you use a lot or very little air. When demand is lower than capacity, the machine continues running while part of the air is blown off. This leads to unnecessary energy consumption. A variable speed drive compressor prevents this by automatically adjusting the motor speed to the current demand. This means the compressor only runs as hard as needed at that moment.

The benefits at a glance

A variable speed drive installation offers major advantages over traditional systems:

• Lower energy consumption because production precisely matches your usage
• No high starting currents thanks to the gradual motor start-up
• Constant working pressure, resulting in stable pressure for your machines and processes
• Less mechanical stress because components do not constantly run at maximum speed
• Lower noise levels as the machine runs much more quietly when air demand is low

Smart control: prevent unnecessary consumption

Many variable speed drive compressors on the market continue running, even when there is little or no air demand. This can lead to unnecessary costs. Our compressors, however, are designed not to keep running unnecessarily and automatically stop when air demand becomes too low. As soon as compressed air is needed again, the machine starts up smoothly with variable speed control. This reduces wear and extends service life.

The most economical choice in the long term

Because energy costs make up the largest share of the total cost of a compressed air installation, a variable speed drive compressor is often the smartest choice. With the right sizing and our efficient control system, you can significantly reduce your monthly energy costs.
