According to the ISO 50001 standard, transparent energy data can be used to derive measures for reducing energy consumption. More specifically, it is possible to achieve savings through start-up and shutdown management, compressor regulation, and peak load management. Wear and tear or defects in mechanical components such as leakage also play an important role in compressed air consumption. Using intelligent sensors and suitable software, it is possible to detect deviations early and initiate appropriate maintenance or repair works.
