 | | "Sigma Air Manager" for efficient dental compressor co-ordination | |
A revolution in energy savings |  |
A single dental compressor in a dental practice or laboratory is often not enough for many of today's compressed air applications in dental medicine and technology. This is especially true for large laboratories, dental clinics and university dental training facilities.
In some cases it maybe necessary to provide hundreds of workstations or treatment units with a dependable supply of quality compressed air. Needless to say, this requires efficient co-ordination of multiple compressors to provide the necessary volumes of compressed air. This is where the industrial PC-based "Sigma Air Manager" master controller makes a real difference.
Effective compressed air system monitoring and control can significantly enhance efficiency. With its motto "A revolution in energy savings", Kaeser is proud to present the next generation "Sigma Air Manager" (SAM). Using its innovative 3-D-Control (patent pending), this powerful master controller and management system is able to drastically reduce compressed air system energy demand by analysing the three crucial "dimensions" that affect energy-efficient control within a compressed air station, namely: 1. Switching losses associated with compressor start-up and shutdown, 2. Additional energy consumption for pressure increases above the required pressure (Pressure flexibility) and, 3. Control losses. The SAM constantly analyses the relationship between these factors, calculates the best possible result and controls the compressors accordingly to maintain maximum efficiency at all times. Moreover, this advanced controller provides users with exceptional cost transparency and optimises preventative maintenance for the entire compressed air supply system. The SAM is available in 3 versions for efficient control of up to 4, 8 or 16 compressors. |
