The SaveAir® regulator is an independent membrane regulator that can be installed in every compressed air system. It supplies a constant, exact outlet pressure regardless of the input pressure. The pressure is factory-set and cannot be changed. SaveAir® prevents “dynamic pressure waste“. This arises when the pressure and throughput at the withdrawal point are unnecessarily higher than those specified by the manufacturer to achieve the desired function.“Dynamic pressure waste” is extremely costly, a waste of energy that may be found throughout industry.
Worth knowing:
- The ideal pressure for pneumatic tools is generally 6,3 bar (90 psi)
- Every bar (15psi) of excess pressure essentially wastes 10 % of the energy
- For safety reasons, pneumatic guns should not be operated at pressures exceeding 2 bar (30 psi)
- The expense for energy amounts to 80 – 90 % of the cost required to produce compressed air.
- Around 10 KW of electrical energy is required to generate 1 KW of mechanical energy from compressed air
- Use of pre-set regulators is an economical way to maintain ideal working pressure in the tool
Advantages:
- Supplies tools exclusively with the specified pressure
- No pressure gauge needed
- Prevents compressed air waste
