How Much Energy is Your Compressed Air System Wasting? Find Out with the Sick FTMg Sensor

You probably know that your compressed air system isn't perfect, but is it wasting £100's, £1000's, or £10,000's every month... Who Knows???

With high energy prices and supply chain pressure to reduce your carbon footprint, it isn't surprising that Energy Management is a key focus for most manufacturing companies. Compressed Air systems are one of the most energy intensive, and inherently wasteful, parts of any business, so monitoring the energy consumption and flow rate to detect leakages is a great way to reduce your costs.

The FTMg thermal flowmeter measures gas flow and temperature as well as the process pressure, making it a cost-saving multi-talent. With high measurement dynamics and low pressure loss, it efficiently measures non-corrosive gases and displays the results on the color display or exports the data as a process diagram.

Continuous Measurement of Your Compressed Air System

Internal data logging over seven days and integrated static evaluation helps detect even the smallest leaks in your pneumatic system. PoE also enables simple web-based connection to a PC or the cloud to make energy consumption more transparent within your business. All measurement data can be transmitted via IO-Link or with switching and analog signals.

Monitoring Airflow to Your Robots

Robots can make a huge difference to your productivity, but at what cost? If you are using compressed air with your robots for Pick and Place applications, End of Arm Tooling and Packaging, Palletisers and Depalletisers, or Vacuum Grippers, how much is being wasted? And because Robots don't take a break and often work overnight, that energy cost can really add up.

Start Saving Money Today!

Using the Sick FTMg sensor will show how much is being wasted, and from where. It can help you to find your leaks, save money, reduce your carbon footprint and become more efficient. If that sounds good, why not fill in the form on the right to arrange a demo and see how good it is for yourself.
