The HPC KAESER BSD Series: Primed For Efficiency

HPC KAESER pushes the boundaries of compressed air availability and efficiency even further with its range of BSD rotary screw compressors.

Not only do they deliver more compressed air for less energy, but the BSD Series also combines user-friendliness and ease of maintenance with exceptional versatility and environmentally responsible design. 

HPC KAESER BSD series compressors save energy in numerous different ways. Equipped with newly refined SIGMA PROFILE rotors, the airends are controlled and monitored by the industrial PC-based SIGMA CONTROL 2 compressor controller. This advanced controller matches compressed air delivery to actual current demand and keeps costly idling time to an absolute minimum, thanks to its Dynamic control mode.

BSD series rotary screw compressors are the perfect partners for high-efficiency industrial compressed air stations. The SIGMA CONTROL 2 controller offers allows seamless integration into master control systems such as HPC KAESER’s SIGMA AIR MANAGER (SAM 4.0), as well as in-house central control systems. This allows unprecedented levels of efficiency to be achieved.

Let's dig a little deeper to see how the HPC KAESER BSD series compressors push the boundaries of compressed air availability and efficiency:

• Energy savings with SIGMA PROFILE: At the heart of every BSD rotary screw compressor lies a premium-quality airend featuring HPC KAESER's energy-saving SIGMA PROFILE rotors. Flow-optimised for impressive performance, these advanced rotors help HPC KAESER BSD systems set the highest standards in terms of specific output.
• SIGMA CONTROL 2: The internal SIGMA CONTROL 2 controller offers numerous communication channels, allowing seamless integration into master control systems such as HPC KAESER’s SIGMA AIR MANAGER (SAM 4.0), as well as in-house central control systems. This allows unprecedented levels of efficiency to be achieved.
• Premium Efficiency IE4 motors: HPC KAESER is currently the only compressed air systems provider to equip some of its compressors with Super Premium Efficiency IE4 drive motors as standard, thereby delivering unrivalled levels of performance and energy efficiency
• Energy saving control: BSD T units are equipped with a highly efficient integrated refrigeration dryer featuring energy saving control. This means that the dryer is only activated when compressed air actually needs to be dried: as a result, the required compressed air quality is achieved with maximum energy efficiency.
• Required temperature assured: The innovative Electronic Thermo Management (ETM) system dynamically controls fluid temperatures according to the prevailing operating conditions, so as to ensure
  reliable prevention of condensate accumulation and also to boost energy efficiency.
• Future-proof refrigerant: The EU 517/2014 F-Gas Regulation is intended to minimise emissions of fluorinated greenhouse gases and therefore contribute to limiting global warming. HPC KAESER’s T-systems are designed to use R-513A refrigerant, which has a very low GWP (Global Warming Potential) value. This means that these efficient dryers will be future-proof for their entire life cycle
• Maximum energy efficiency: HPC KAESER’s frequency-controlled systems meet the IES2 efficiency standard, which is the highest achievable level of efficiency as per IEC 61800-9-2. The level IES2 indicates that losses are 20% lower than the required benchmark.
• Minimal operating costs – exceptional productivity: Considerable energy savings are possible thanks to significantly higher levels of efficiency – especially in the partial load range – as compared to systems using asynchronous drive motors. The low moment of inertia of synchronous reluctance motors allows very short cycles, thereby boosting the productivity of the machine and the system as a whole. 

 

HPC KAESER Strategy: “More Air, Less Energy”

HPC compressors are designed without compromise to ensure they have the best Specific Power so customers can save on energy costs. This means the compressor’s complete package is considered and includes:

• The most efficient motors.
• A large range of KAESER Sigma Airends that are sized to perfectly match the motor to produce the optimum output at the highest efficiency.
• The lowest internal pressure drops throughout the compressor, limiting energy losses.
• The lowest operating compressor temperatures, from the inlet of the compressor, through energy efficient cooling fans, optimum sized coolers, and excellent energy temperature control. The lower the operating temperature, the greater the efficiency.

If you are in the process of looking for a compressed air solution, ask for the manufacturer’s technical data sheet, which should detail, pressure, flow, and input power. Then speak to an HPC Authorised Distributor or contact HPC directly. We will show you how choosing HPC can save you money and turn your operation greener. Go Yellow, Be Green, Save Money.
