Avelair Compressed Air Systems: Variable Speed drive compressors

Variable Speed drive compressors

The Avelair VSD range offers true reliability. It is a no nonsense, practical application of technology that works.

Why choose an Avelair VSD?

The Avelair VSD compressors can provide an effective energy saving solution, and in qualified applications it can save up to 30% of energy costs. The compressor is run by an inverter that has been specifically designed for high performing compressor applications. This inverter senses the compressed air system pressure and causes the compressors to speed up and slow down in response to demand for compressed air. The result is that energy lost through off load running can be significantly reduced and the inverter ensures that the compressor accurately maintains system pressure.

When is a VSD the right choice?

The Avelair VSD compressor will be practically effective in saving energy where there are significant peaks and troughs in demand for compressed air. It can also be effective when combined with a standard fixed speed compressor to top up a compressed air system during times of variable demand.

Practical technology that works

The compressor incorporates a high quality specially programmed inverter. Linked to the compressor control system the inverter software has been specifically designed to operate in harmony with the Avelair hardware, providing a robust and practical application of technology that is thoroughly suited to the industrial environments.
