All customers automatically get SMARTLINK Service, which allows you to actively monitor more than 30 data points. In addition, you get recommendations for performance improvements and easy access to service and advice.
If you want to reduce your energy costs, then you can sign up for SMARTLINK Energy. This plan analyzes and optimizes the energy efficiency of your compressor room and helps you save a lot of money. By subscribing to this service level, we can help you achieve an improved energy efficiency of up to 30%.
At any time, you have access to performance indicators, benchmarks and trends, as well as reports and recommendations.
If your primary concern is maximum uptime, e.g. for compressors in remote locations or on ships, then SMARTLINK Uptime is the optimal choice.
This service level maximizes the availability of all connected machines. In addition to early warnings that allow you to address small issues quickly before they turn into expensive problems, you also get lots of information on the health of your machines.
Smart controllers
Atlas Copco is also on the forefront of compressor controller technology. For individual controllers, that means the Elektronikon Touch and the revolutionary Elektronikon Nano™.Thanks to its superior processing capability, the Touch allows compressors of any age or type to benefit from the most advanced control algorithms and connectivity. This results in improved system control and energy savings.
The Touch is designed to optimize the performance of super-efficient variable speed drive (VSD) compressors – another technology that Atlas Copco pioneered.In addition, it has a variety of automation features, such as timers to automize the start/stop command. A dual pressure band function allows time-based pressure band commands to reduce your energy consumption during low loads.Finally, it protects the compressor by monitoring critical parameters and shutting down the machine in case of a serious problem. It also provides service notifications and internal temperature sensors prevent components from taking damage.
The Nano™ is equally impressive for smaller professional rotary screw compressors.
It is the world’s first compressor controller that is entirely app controlled. With an intuitive, uncluttered display, that makes the Nano very easy to use.
This innovative controller allows you to optimize your compressor’s performance from a mobile device and get the most out of it in terms of efficiency, uptime and lifetime.It also features a Delayed Second Stop which protects the motor from frequent starting/stopping and benefits the lifetime of the compressor.Another great feature is a leak detection program. Many people do not realize that up to 20% of compressed air is wasted because air leaks go undiscovered. This smart controller helps prevent that.The most revolutionary feature of the Nano is that it can receive over-the-air updates, which improves the compressor’s performance over time.
Central controllers
Atlas Copco also excels when it comes to central controllers.
If you want complete optimization of your compressed air system with multiple controllers, then the Optimizer 4.0 is your ideal choice.
It is the smartest central controller on the market and regulates the machines in the compressor room in order to achieve the highest possible energy savings and lowest possible maintenance. These advanced central controllers continuously read all the data from the connected machines and adapt their regulation accordingly.
The Equalizer 4.0 PRO is a great solution for coordinating the performance of up to six compressors. You get to define the priorities of your compressed air network, such as emphasizing reliability or efficiency. The Equalizer 4.0 PRO features an embedded sequencing algorithm and allows you to lower the overall pressure band and ensure a steady compressed air supply.
Connected compressors
Finally, there are the compressors themselves. With the GA VSDS, Atlas Copco has built the smartest and most connected compressor in history.
You get to take full advantage of everything SMARTLINK and the Elektronikon Touch have to offer. The GA VSDS is also the first compressor that can be equipped with OPC UA technology.
In addition, it has a range of intelligent features, such as an innovative Smart Temperature Control (STC) system. It guarantees that the GA VSDS always operates with an optimal oil temperature. That not only makes it more efficient but also more reliable.
