NEED AIR?

Every compressed air system is a project of its own. Why inexperience costs money, what Tehnogama offers, and the four questions to start with: air volume, working pressure, environment and ISO 8573-1 purity class.

NEED AIR?

Air is all around us. Just as every living being needs it to survive, your production needs it to drive the machines that will turn your idea into reality – as compressed air. Every compressed air system is a project in its own right, with its own unique requirements and needs.

Because producing compressed air is expensive, a lack of experience in designing the system can increase its operating costs. Every mistake, even the smallest – a large pressure drop in the system, leaks nobody pays attention to and much more – can result in extra costs and constantly low efficiency. The wrong choice of compressor and accompanying equipment can cause faults in the equipment driven by compressed air or ruin products.

The results of lack of knowledge and experience are always the same:

  • Inadequate air quality
  • Inadequate operating parameters
  • Inadequate quality of the final products or of the production process itself

01How Tehnogama helps

TEHNOGAMA offers optimal solutions for every compressed air need, which – thanks to many years of experience in compressor technology and careful choice of equipment – will save you money. Besides the maximum benefits your production gains from a carefully chosen compressor and treatment equipment, you get maximum quality, low running costs, better products and a longer machine life.

Our solutions include efficient compressors, drying and filtration of compressed air to the requirements of your machines and/or processes, smart distribution of compressed air to every consumer, and a system rounded off with monitoring where needed.

02Where to start: analysing your needs

  • How much air do your machines need?
  • What working pressure do your machines need?
  • What is the environment where the compressor will be installed (temperature and other ambient conditions)?
  • What purity class do your machines require? (Purity classes are defined by ISO 8573-1, which specifies the permitted residues of solid particles, oil (or oil vapour) and water in compressed air.)

That is the first step – defining your compressed air needs. The second step will follow logically from the first…
