Every factory spends thousands of rupees monthly on its compressed air system. However, quite a part of this energy goes to waste through phenomena such as pressure drops, air leaks, corrosion, and an inefficient piping system. Airnox PPRC Pipes can help to prevent losses by ensuring smooth airflow and stable pressure and minimising the risk of any leakages.
In this way, compressors will require less electricity and work more efficiently, while factories can lower their operating costs and increase their profitability.
Why do Airnox PPRC Pipes Contribute to the Energy Efficiency of Pipelines?
If the aim is to reduce hidden energy losses, the piping system should be considered along with the compressor.
The Airnox PPRC Pipes are made of polypropylene random copolymer (PPRC). As the inner walls of such pipes are smooth, there will be no resistance to airflow in them. This means that pressure will be low throughout the system. In this way, the compressor maintains the necessary pressure level without any extra effort. Reduced energy consumption directly depends on reduced compressor load.
At the same time, these pipes have fusion-welded joints, which reduce the probability of air leakage. Also, stable pressure ensures constant airflow in pneumatic tools and production equipment.
What is the Cost of Hidden Energy Loss for Every Factory?
Usually, hidden energy loss takes place gradually. For this reason, businesses do not pay attention to it until they see increased electricity bills.
Some possible reasons for it are:
- Pressure drops due to rough inner walls of the pipes;
- Micro-leaks in pipe joints;
- Corrosion and scale buildup inside the metal pipes;
- Cracks due to thermal stress;
- Increased maintenance costs and unexpected production stoppages.
Fortunately, there is a way to avoid all these problems by installing a good piping system.
How a Better Piping System Can Increase the Profitability of Your Business
A good choice of piping system provides numerous additional advantages for the industry.
With Airnox PPRC Pipes, factories get:
- Smooth airflow with minimum friction
- Leak-resistant fusion joints
- Corrosion and scale resistance
- Lightweight pipes
- Low thermal conductivity
- High service life, which can exceed 50 years when following the recommendations regarding the operating conditions
- Lower maintenance costs
- Better protection of valves, compressors, and pneumatic equipment
For these reasons, factories can save money on electricity, reduce their repair expenses, enhance production efficiency and improve profitability.
FAQs:
How do Airnox PPRC Pipes decrease the energy consumption of compressors?
Thanks to the smooth inner walls, there will be minimal friction and pressure drop. Thus, compressors will consume less electricity to provide the same airflow.
Why is it better to use fusion-welded joints?
Fusion welding produces a strong joint that will not allow any leakage. So, the compressed air will not go out of the pipeline through leak-prone joints.
What is the lifespan of the Airnox PPRC Pipes?
Under recommended operating conditions, a good quality PPRC piping system can work for more than 50 years with minimal maintenance.
