An industrial air compressor should not be purchased without a thorough understanding of the application. Our industry experience combined with our range of different types and models of air compressors enables us to select the right compressor for your application. To do this we prefer to visit your site to see what you do, to understand your needs and to identify ways in which we can reduce your energy costs. Our engineers consider a number of parameters before making a recommendation for you.
Our aim is to engineer a solution to meet your needs and to lower your cost of compressed air.
Some of the things we consider before recommending a compressor system for you include:
- Your usage profile. i.e. how does your demand vary throughout the production periods.
- The cleanliness of the site and the impact your production may have on any proposed air compressor. Eg. chemicals, dust, gases etc.
- The availability of enough power to operate the proposed compressor.
- Your requirement for standby air.
- The quality of compressed air required.
- The physical area available for installation and any ventilation issues.
- The logistics of installation - ie lifting equipment required etc.
- Sizing of existing piping to ensure any pressure drop is minimised.
- Would an overhaul of existing air compressor/s be a better solution?
- Power savings available from different types of air compressors.
- Test and quantify the volume of air leaks and identify associated cost.
- Air treatment (air drying or filtering) products that may be required
- Air receiver sizing to ensure correct load cycling of the proposed new compressor.
- Total cost of ownership, including power costs, maintenance and capital cost
- Any built in obsolecense of any proposed air compressor.
- Future growth expected in this plant
- Suitable sequencing of multiple compressors to maximise available equipment and to minimise energy usage.
You may now realise there are many things that impact on the cost of owning and operating a compressed air system. Southern Cross Compressors have the necessary Compressed Air Experience to ensure you get the optimal solution.
