Intermediate Control

Intermediate Control - Stop unwanted fluctuations

A further step in managing your compressed air system.

Take command of your air system by installing an Intermediate Control (I/C).

IC technology will:

Stabilize the system pressure supplied to the production floor

Deliver only the amount of air necessary to perform the task

Satisfy peak demands utilizing air storage

Improve product quality and increase production efficiency

Save up to 50% or more of required input horsepower

Reduce compressor wear and decrease expended energy

The Balanced System
The IC operates by monitoring the deviations in the demand side pressure in relation to the set balance point pressure. The instantaneous deviation at the specific point in time is a good measure of the actual demand. A signal is generated in accordance with the deviation measured which directs the flow control paralles in the header module to either increase or decrease flow to correct the deviation. The quick response of the IC paces the flow dynamics of the system demand side insuring an adequate supply of air is always delivered to production.

In Total Control The Intermediate Control was designed specifically to operate at the intermediate point of the compressed air system; downstream of the cleanup and drying equipment and upstream of the main piping distribution system. The I/C creates storage by introducing a controlled differential pressure across an upstream receiver and the associated piping. Storage isolates the compressors from the demand side. Peaks are dealt with using the reserve energy in storage instead of horsepower thus allowing the compressor's) to remain off line. In a properly sized system, peaks can always be satisfied from storage keeping the compressor's) permanently off line.

How you are in control
Intelligent decisions can be made with regard to control of the entire system.

All the various points of use can be addressed with regard to minimizing waste.

Leak management programs can be instituted with much faster pay backs

Quality can be better assured and controlled. Machinery can be adjusted to operate at peak efficiency.

The compressors can be properly sequenced based on energy conscious decisions.
