Air Station Cuts Energy 35% at a New-Materials Plant in Jiangsu
Project Background
Jiangsu New Materials Company, a leading producer of tool steel, titanium alloys, and cutting tools, faced significant challenges with its ageing equipment, high energy consumption, and noise pollution. The company recognised the need to upgrade its compressed air system to improve efficiency and reduce costs. After extensive research and comparison, the company decided to work with SIND due to its reputation for energy efficiency, stability, quiet operation, and reliability.
Solution
Equipment: SIND SILVERLUBE-VPM series PM VSD screw compressors
SIND recommended and installed multiple high-performance compressors, including the SIND SILVERLUBE-VPM series PM VSD screw compressors. The solution also included efficient post-treatment equipment, comprehensive pipeline renovation, and additional installation services. The compressors feature innovative energy-saving technology, IE4 efficiency-rated permanent magnet motors, independent cooling systems, and dual frequency converters. The overall energy efficiency exceeds the national Grade 1 energy efficiency standard by 8-10%, with a 35% energy savings rate. Additionally, the system allows for remote operation and real-time monitoring, enabling unmanned operation and reducing labor costs.
Results
The installation of the SIND compressors resulted in immediate recognition for their quiet operation. More impressively, the system achieved an annual electricity savings of 870,000 CN¥ (US$122,535) while maintaining the same level of compressed air usage. This exceeded the expected 35% energy savings rate, surprising the client and reinforcing their confidence in SIND's solutions.
