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.
Geoff Taylor, managing director of Boge Compressors said: "Compressed air remains a key element of the manufacturing process and end-users need a certain level of knowledge to run their compressors efficiently".
"The guide allows users to determine their exact requirements when choosing a new machine and also advises on the most cost effective way to run existing installations." The correct specification and configuration of compressed air systems has become a crucial concern for every factory manager operating a compressed air system since the Climate Change Levy (CCL) or 'Energy Tax' came into force in April 2001.
As such, individual companies and organisations have faced higher compressed air related energy costs - most especially where misuse and wastage of compressed air is occurring.
A pertinent chapter that has been updated in the revised guide - 'Costs of compressed air', highlights the real cost of energy to the overall price of running a compressor.
Calculations available in this chapter will allow a factory manager to assess the true cost of their compressed air system.
This is truly an essential handbook for anyone involved in specifying, maintaining or running compressed air equipment.
The handbook retails at GBP 24.99 +VAT per copy. Request a free brochure from Boge Compressors ...
