Is It Plugged In? Let’s Go Back To the Basics 1 of 6

Published on by Brian FarnoLeave a comment

Today, I want to kick off something a little different with the blog and start back at the basics. Over the next series of posts, we’ll walk through the Six Steps to Optimizing Your Compressed Air Systems. The goal is simple: to help you evaluate your current setup, identify opportunities for improvement, and put real numbers to the savings you can achieve.

Six Steps to Optimizing Your Compressed Air System

The first step to optimization is to measure and understand your compressed air consumption. There are several ways to do this, but one of the most effective is with our Digital Flow Meter paired with a Summing Remote Display or a USB Data Logger.

  • The Digital Flow Meter provides real-time data on compressed air usage.
  • The Summing Remote Display allows you to track cumulative usage over a 24-hour period (or longer).

By installing these tools, you can measure usage across your entire system or isolate a single machine. Once you start gathering data, you’ll quickly see the difference that EXAIR products can make in reducing consumption and improving efficiency.

With usage data in hand, you’re ready to move on to step two—stay tuned for the next installment. If you’d like to jump ahead or talk through your system directly, I’d be happy to connect.

Monitoring Is Apparently The New Thing To Do

Published on by Brian FarnoLeave a comment

Over the past month, I have been loosely watching the events revolving around a former government contractor, Edward Snowden.   The contractor leaked classified information about how the NSA monitors the US citizens.   This has of course brought on a large amount of news coverage and lots of questions from the US citizens to the government.  Others have been able to turn it into a laughing matter like Jimmy Kimmel did on his show.   Below is the commercial Jimmy did for the NSA on his show.

So with all the talk about how every little thing you do is monitored, and I am probably going to end up on several lists for keywords in this blog, why not begin your own monitoring campaign.

EXAIR offers a full line of monitoring devices for your compressed air system, after all it’s the first step in the 6 Steps To Compressed Air Optimization.  The best part of our offering is that you can not only use the EXAIR Digital Flowmeter to monitor your compressed air system, when combined with the Summing remote display and/or the USB Data Logger, you can also collect the data from the meter.

The complete setup will allow you to easily see, and calculate, your cost savings before and after you implement an Intelligent Compressed Air product.

If you have any questions on how EXAIR can help you monitor your compressed air system, give us a call, chat, fax or e-mail.
