With a room full of compressors, how do you keep them all playing together nicely? Central controls is the key to an energy efficient system with multiple compressor. Even with various types and brands a central control system can form a chain of command that keeps the plant satisfied while reducing energy costs.
The simplest central control is utilizing the existing compressor controllers for communication between the compressors allowing one or two units to focus as the lead machine and calling on the remaining compressors to assist in high load conditions. This could be by automatically loading or modulating one or several of the remaining units.
System master controls have many functional capabilities, including the ability to monitor and control all components in the system as well as trending data to enhance maintenance functions and minimize costs of operation.
What if your compressors are from multiple manufacturers and the controllers will not communicate with each other? Time to call on an outside source such as IZ Systems. The IZ Systems central control system can communicate with all compressor manufacturers controls and allow many enhanced functions not usually associated with normal compressor controls such as web based control, real time energy consumption and even contracts allowing our specialist to monitor your compressed air components for you remotely, giving you piece of mind 24/7/365.
