History
A London Based Science Museum were experiencing efficiency issues with two aged compressors located in separate plant rooms within the site. Upon the breakdown of the GA50 compressor rendering it beyond economical repair, Motivair (a March company) was tasked with providing a quote to replace with a 50Kw replacement.
Solution
Upon preparing the quote Motivair conducted an audit to ensure that the customers need would be met with an Energy saving alternative.
This led to the proposed installation of an OPUS KMAX OP-VSDD18.5-8-DPM 18.5kW (25Hp), S.D.S. 400V, Floor Mounted, Permanent Magnet, Direct Drive, Variable Speed Rotary Screw Air Compressor c/w Integral Refrigerant Air Dryer Capable of Producing Between 1076 L/min (36 CFM) minimum & 3086 L/min (109 CFM) maximum at 8 Bar (116 Psi)
Results
The potential annual savings (without considering electrical cost power savings) show £344.24 a year on Productive Energy costing and £12,432.16 on Non-Productive/Wasted Energy.
In line with these, on optimum performance, a potential Carbon saving of 13.67 tons.
With all of this considered the customer could look at a potential payback of 2.4 years.
