The efficiency of an operating machine will slowly deteriorates, which means that the runtime process parameters change. So, after some time calculations, based on the characteristics given by the manufacturer, no longer will lead to the optimal operating point of the machine. To be able to optimize the performance continuously, it is necessary to determine and to use the actual characteristics of the machine.
The Compressor Characterizer determines the actual characteristics and passes them automatically to the Compressor Optimizer. Taking into account the actual characteristics, the Compressor Optimizer finds, fully automated, the optimal operating point.
The Compressor Optimizer also automatically finds the optimal operational point for load sharing. Even in the case the actual characteristics are not used, savings will be achieved when the Compressor Optimizer calculates what the optimal point under the given conditions will be. However, it is better to use the actual characteristics.
The continuously, fully automated process of finding the optimal operating point by the Compressor Optimizer, transcends the possibilities of all other existing programs by far.
Optimization software is used in addition to the existing control software. It can be used on- and off-line for purposes like:
Fully automated
Field proven
Payback period less than six months
