MACHINERY: Compressor Controller

225 KFCClick photo to enlarge• Kaeser Compressors Inc., Fredericksburg, Va., adds the Kaeser Flow Controller (KFC) to its award-winning controls product line—the Kaeser Flow Controller (KFC). Available for system capacities from 250 to 18,000 scfm, the KFC creates more-effective storage by accumulating compressed air in receivers and only delivering air needed for production.

The KFC responds rapidly to fluctuating demand and actively maintains constant system pressure downstream. More stable air pressure helps eliminate artificial demand and substantially reduces air losses through leaks.

Stored compressed air can now be used to satisfy air demand spikes without pressure drop at the point of use, resulting in higher production rates, reduced maintenance costs and significant energy savings. The unit can be installed very easily in new or existing systems without reconfiguring existing piping.
