Energy-saving methods for permanent magnet variable frequency air compressors

In recent years. In response to the energy-saving and emission-reduction work of enterprise transformation, various air compressor manufacturers have done their best to test and evaluate the energy consumption of existing products, and carry out structural transformation and adjustment, which has achieved good energy-saving and power-saving effects. Wolfcon energy-saving screw air compressor combines relevant technical dry goods, permanent magnet variable frequency energy-saving air compressor energy-saving and power-saving 8 steps, every step is making money for you!


1. Replace the piston machine Although the industry has entered the era of screw machines for nearly 20 years, at present, the most used domestic air compressors are still piston machines. Compared with traditional piston compressors, screw air compressors have the advantages of simple structure, small size, high reliability, stability, and simple maintenance. The market share of screw air compressors has increased year by year. In recent years, energy-saving screw compressors have continued to emerge, and various companies have competed to launch products that exceed the national energy efficiency grade standards.


2. Pressure drop control: Pressure gauges are set up in each section of the pipeline. Generally, the pressure drop from the air compressor outlet to the factory use point cannot exceed 1 bar, and the more stringent one cannot exceed 10%, that is, 0.7 bar. The pressure drop of the cold dry filter section is generally 0.2 bar. Check the pressure drop of each section in detail, and maintain it in time if there is a problem. (Each kilogram of pressure increase will increase energy consumption by 7%-10%).


3. Leakage control: The average leakage of compressed air in the factory is 20~30%, so the work of energy saving is to control leakage. Related pneumatic tools, hoses, joints, valves, a small hole of 1 square millimeter, under 7 bar pressure, almost lose a lot in a year. Check the leakage of air compressor pipelines and optimize the design of pipelines.


4. Use good compressors for variable working conditions, use good permanent magnet variable frequency screw air compressors, which is conducive to energy saving. At present, the domestic good permanent magnet variable frequency screw air compressors, its permanent magnet motor saves more than 10% energy than ordinary motors; it has the advantages of constant pressure air without pressure difference waste; how much air is used, no loading and unloading, etc. It saves 30% energy compared to general air compressors.


5. Evaluate the pressure demand of gas-using equipment. While ensuring production, the exhaust pressure of the air compressor should be lowered as much as possible. The cylinders of many gas-using equipment only need 3~4bar, and a few manipulators need more than 6bar. (For every 1bar lower pressure, energy saving is about 7~10%).


6. Reduce the air intake temperature of the air compressor. Since the internal temperature of the general air compressor station is higher than that of the outdoor, outdoor gas collection can be considered. Do a good job of equipment maintenance and cleaning, increase the heat dissipation effect of the air compressor, the exchange effect of water cooling, air cooling and other heat exchangers, maintain oil quality, etc., all of which can reduce energy loss.


7. Centralized control of air compressors. Centralized linkage control can reduce the step-by-step exhaust pressure increase caused by the parameter setting of multiple air compressors, resulting in waste of output air energy.


8. Waste heat recovery. Air compressor waste heat recovery generally uses good waste heat utilization equipment to absorb waste heat from the air compressor to heat cold water without additional energy consumption. It mainly solves problems such as employee life and industrial hot water, saves a lot of energy for the enterprise, and thus greatly saves the output cost of the enterprise.
