The concept of energy efficiency is one of the most important and noteworthy concepts in the modern world. The amount of consumption, which is increasing in parallel with the population all over the world, has revealed the need for all institutions to take certain measures, putting new perspectives on a sustainable future.

At Lupamat, we are successfully pursuing energy efficiency with technological innovations that will reduce the amount of energy consumed per product without any reduction in efficiency and work performance, and increase our customers' savings by reducing the amount of energy costs per unit.

Continuing its production with the slogan "Efficient, Economical, Compressed Air Production", Lupamat offers services such as Variable Speed Control, Heat Recovery System, Proportional Control Valve, Central Control System, Efficient Engine, Efficient Accessories, Appropriate Selection from Authorities. Personnel Consulting, Leakage Control and Prevention By applying new generation technologies in the compressors we manufacture, we both increase consumer savings and contribute to the sector in terms of energy efficiency and sustainability by preventing unnecessary energy consumption.

Efficient, Economical, Compressed Air Production
There are certain criteria to save energy when using a compressor. We can list these criteria as variable speed control, heat recycling system, proportional control valve, central control system, efficient motor, efficient accessory, appropriate selection in the consultation of competent personnel, leakage. control detection and prevention. Lupamat Kompressor aims to provide its customers with an efficient and economical compressed air production process in its entire product range of screw compressors, reciprocating compressors, oil-free compressors, rail system compressors, Pet compressors, CO2 compressors, dryers, air tanks and equipment.

Low cost air production with Variable Speed Control Technology
In conventional oil-injected load/idle compressors, the compressor consumes full power at load, and the compressor consumes unnecessary energy at idle. In all Lupamat DHK series compressors, the motor speed is regulated by the inverter according to the air consumption.

Thus, all the energy spent in idle time is earned. Lupamat provides additional energy savings by controlling the speed of the cooling fan in compressors with radial fans.

Heat Recovery System
Another important factor in terms of energy efficiency is the Heat Recovery System that Lupamat provides to its customers. In oil-pumped compressors, the heat released after the air and oil are compressed in the screw and the heat generated by the electric motor can be obtained as energy.

This heat energy can be recovered to use hot air to heat the environment, which will be directed through the hood. In addition, hot water can be obtained with heat gain exchangers to be added to the oil and air circuit. The resulting hot water can be used in the process or used as a space heater in radiators. Thus, 91 percent of the wasted heat energy can be recovered.

Use of a Proportional Control Valve
On loaded/unloaded compressors, the suction flap is controlled by a proportional control valve and is set to an intermediate position when the desired pressure is approached. Unnecessary energy loss at idle is reduced because the compressor does not go to idle through the intermediate damper. Thus, a constant pressure is obtained at the same time.

Central Control System
At multiple compressor stations, Lupamat communicates with control panels and starts compressors according to needs and compressor ages. Thus, energy losses caused by unnecessary operation of compressors are prevented.

It keeps the operating hours of compressors of similar power equal. Thus, maintenance planning can be done. In case of failure, it starts the backup compressor. Provides central control of up to 6 compressors. The telemetry system automatically notifies users via email in case of malfunction or maintenance.

The central management system allows for easy and remote monitoring of production processes such as compressor maintenance periods, fault records, pressure and temperature data. Thanks to the remote monitoring system, predictive maintenance activities can be carried out and clogging of air or separator filters can be detected. By detecting possible problems in advance, unknown downtimes and interruptions in production can be prevented.

Efficient Engine Usage
Screw compressors use a main motor and a fan motor. The efficiency of these motors is classified as IE1, IE2, IE3, IE4 according to IEC60034-2-1, the International Electrotechnical Commission's international standard for rotating electrical machines.

Samar

allowance amounts and values vary by engine make and engine type. IE3 / IE4 efficient motors are used in Lupamat compressors.

Effective Accessory Use
In addition to its core products, Lupamat can contribute to energy efficiency with products such as clutch, air/oil separator, air filter and oil filter.

Coupling: Efficiency losses due to friction in belt / pulley mechanisms are on the order of 1-2%. These losses can be avoided by using couplings. Lupamat contributes to energy efficiency not only with the compressors it produces, but also with spare parts and additional products.

Air/Oil Separator: Lupamat brand air/oil separators provide a consumer friendly product in terms of energy efficiency by providing long life, less resistance and less oil consumption.

Additional costs can be up to 3% due to separator clogging due to poor quality or inefficiencies caused by oil or pressure loss, and Lupamat manufactures products to minimize these losses.

Air Filter: With Lupamat brand air intake filters, you can have long-term use and lower resistance. You can monitor the clogging condition of the filter on the screen through the 50 mbar clogging sensor. A compressor running with a clogged filter (100 mbar) can cause a 10% inefficiency in air production, which creates huge energy costs.

Oil Filter: LUPAMAT brand oil filters ensure long-term use and effective particle filtration. Using an oil filter extends the life of the oil. The clogging condition can be monitored on the screen through the filter clogging sensor.

A compressor running with a clogged oil filter will not have enough lubrication and the temperature will rise and the screw rotors can be damaged by this high temperature. The filters we use have the bypass feature as a standard feature.

Pressure losses caused by clogging of drier filters also cause additional energy consumption. For this reason, it should be preferred to have a filter contamination indicator.

The flow, pressure and air quality required by the enterprise are calculated together with the workers who are experts in their field, and according to the variability of the consumption situation, the right compressor selection, the selection and design of the suitable compressor room are carried out. , and transmission of information about internal pipelines is provided by Lupamat.

Measurement and analysis of the current power, analysis of the estimated value of air consumption for the future with the mentioned data, and measurement of the real consumption flow by the method of heat mass measurement are provided.

Leak Control Detection and Mitigation
Air leakage in the system is an important opportunity for energy savings. Air leaks usually occur in safety valves, pipe and hose connections, shut-off valves, and pneumatic tools. One of the following methods can be used for leak detection;

Ultrasonic Detector: Collects and amplifies the sound of leaks and converts it into an audible sound.

Soap suds: Applied to joints and valves. This method is suitable for small leaks.

Perfume Use: A strong smelling perfume is placed in the air inlet of the compressor. A leak is detected because this smell will appear in the places where there is a leak.

Branch isolation: All branches should be examined. Air-consuming elements in the branch are closed. A pressure gauge is placed on the branch. Branch inlet from main distribution valve etc. leaves with If there is a drop in pressure, there is an air leak.

With all its products and accessories, Lupamat offers sustainable and user-friendly technologies in terms of energy efficiency, both on an individual user scale and on a global scale. Lupamat, which produces technologies that will reduce the amount of energy consumed per product without any reduction in efficiency and work performance, variable speed control, central control system, heat recovery system, proportional control valve and efficient motor use.
