Effortlessly reduce compressed air
energy costs
Introducing a compressed air management system to a compressed air installation is a proven method of continually monitoring energy and consumption in order to maximise site efficiency.
Boge Compressors has launched the MCS Professional Plus range, a predictive compressed air management system By sending signals to and from the compressors controllers, the management system can predict, and switch, compressor combinations being used in order that the specific pressure required at each point in time is met in the most efficient way

Oil-free compressors serve PET bottle production
Oil-free compressors combine an oil-free rotary screw compressor with an oil-free reciprocating compressor, plus a chiller dryer, in one compact, low-maintenance unit to serve PET bottle moulding.
Integral compressor/dryer reduces maintenance cost
A leading investment casting specialist has significantly increased quality, cut maintenance costs and boosted output by installing compressor/dryer to supply its foundry.
In doing so, the MCS Professional Plus ensures that, the compressor user gets the best possible use of compressed air delivered in the most energy efficient way.
Effective and efficient use of compressed air is always going to be important to any maintenance manager for many reasons, not least keeping production constant, maintenance costs down and reducing the impact of the energy tax.
One way in which the MCS Professional Plus can assist compressor users in achieving these goals is by being able to identify process misuse or wastage.
By constantly monitoring the compressed air system the management programme can pinpoint if, where and why process misuse or wastage is occurring.
Necessary action can then be taken to once again optimise the system.
By constantly monitoring the compressor system, the MCS Professional Plus ensures that whatever changes occur to a compressor system, for example, process changes, the new requirements are automatically met by the controllers predictive capability thus ensuring that efficiency remains optimised.
It is through these methods that the MCS Professional Plus assures a leaner and meaner compressed air system by eliminating inefficiencies that are brought about by changes to the work process and hitherto undetected leakages.
The MCS Professional Plus comes with a user-friendly communication software package that allows the end-user and the service provider (if so required) to view the live system from a remote computer, as well as produce an on-going efficiency report kW/m3min.
The MCS Professional Plus works with but independently of the compressors' own control system.
It can be introduced with any make or combination of makes of compressors. Request a free brochure from Boge Compressors ...
