Industrial, Manufacturing, and Plastic Applications
Compressed air is an indispensable asset in industrial, manufacturing, and plastic applications, offering exceptional installation flexibility, performance, and efficiency.
Industrial Air Compressors: Performance and Efficiency
Industrial air compressors play a versatile role across diverse industries, particularly in manufacturing and plastic applications, enhancing productivity and operational efficiency.
Powering Industrial, Manufacturing, and Plastic Applications
The industrial landscape encompasses various application areas, including the manufacturing of individual parts and complete products. Compressed air is a crucial component in these sectors due to its flexibility and versatility. The Titan Emporium offers a wide range of industrial products, such as industrial air compressors and rotary screw air compressors, designed to meet the increasing demand for compressed air in industrial, manufacturing, and plastic applications.
Choosing the Right Power Supply for Your Industrial Air Compressor
When integrating compressed air into industrial facilities, the power supply requirements are a primary consideration. The choice of the power system depends on the specific application. High-demand industrial environments typically operate on a three-phase system (400 V), while smaller operations might use a single-phase setup (230 V). Selecting an air compressor that aligns with your electrical configuration ensures optimal performance. Single-phase systems can efficiently power air compressors with engines up to 3 HP (2.2 kW), while three-phase systems are suitable for higher capacities, particularly when amperage requirements are significant.
Managing Sound Levels: A Crucial Factor in Air Compressor Selection
Assessing the sound level generated by the air compressor is vital, especially in industrial settings where space constraints prevent the allocation of a dedicated room for the airflow system.
Sound Levels Explained:
- Sound power level: Quantifies the energy released by a sound source within a defined unit of time.
- Sound pressure: Measures the effect of a sound source’s energy, influenced by the distance from the source(s) and the acoustic properties of the environment.
Evaluating the acceptability of sound levels in your workplace is essential when selecting a new air compressor. For precise guidance on choosing the most suitable air compressor, consulting with an expert is recommended.
