Lower Long Term Costs

Energy costs are a significant portion of any compressed air system's total lifetime cost.  In fact, the amount of energy required to run a compressor for just one year can exceed the compressor purchase price.  Over a period of 10 years, energy normally totals 70% of the overall costs. 

Since Kaeser's energy-saving screw compressors deliver up to 20% more air per kilowatt, the cost-efficient choice is clear.

Benefit the environment and save costs with heat recovery:

The waste heat generated during compressed air production represents a consider-able potential saving, since 100 percent of the energy fed to a compressor is converted into heat. This is energy that can be utilised. In fact, up to 96 % of the energy that is used to produce compressed air remains available for reuse. This not only enables huge annual financial savings, but also helps to considerably reduce CO₂-emissions.

The scale of the savings effect depends on the size of the compressors and the primary energy source that is used (electricity, gas, fuel oil). Moreover, many older compressor models can even be retrofitted to provide heat recovery.
