Delivering compressed air in an industrial environment is no small feat — it’s a major cost centre. According to industry insights, energy consumption alone can account for 60-90% of the total lifetime cost of a compressed air system.
That’s why Electrex provides complete solutions to help you monitor, analyze, and optimise your compressed air system — allowing you to reduce energy waste, extend equipment lifetime, and improve process reliability.
Here’s how our systems make that possible:
✅ Continuous monitoring is key
It’s not a one-time activity. You must continuously monitor critical parameters in your compressor room — such as flow, pressure, temperature, dew point — and correlate these against energy consumption and delivered air volume.
✅ Gather and correlate the right data
Many plants already have sensors in place; the missing link is the ability to integrate heterogeneous devices and capture not just electrical power, but process and environmental data too (e.g., analog inputs, digital inputs, PT100 sensors).
✅ Track real KPIs for efficiency
By normalising flow (Qn) and correlating pressure, temperature and energy consumed, you can establish meaningful KPIs that tell you how efficiently your system is producing compressed air.
✅ Enable better cost allocation and comparison
When you have visibility into how much compressed air costs by department, you can automatically generate reports, compare plants globally, and target improvement actions more effectively.
✅ Move from reactive to predictive maintenance
With real-time alarms (pressure, dew point, temperature) and automatic reporting on deviations, you’re no longer stuck in “repair after failure” mode — you’re in “predict & prevent” mode.
👉 If your company is seeking to get more out of its compressed air infrastructure — reduce wasted energy, prevent downtime, and improve operational transparency — let’s connect. I’d be happy to discuss how a monitoring & management solution can unlock savings and performance.
