Maintain the air receiver in good condition and ensure it is drained effectively at regular intervals. A timer and solenoid valve can help. Install compressor air intakes where they will receive the coolest air available.

Leaks are a significant source of wasted energy in a compressed air system, often wasting as much as 20 to 30% of the compressor's output. Compressed air leaks can also contribute to problems with system operations. Fluctuating system pressures cause air tools and other air-operated equipment to function less efficiently, possibly affecting production.

*) For higher number or density of fibers in 2D fiber arrays we offer the option to use MLA instead of single collimators.

Operating compressed air systems can be expensive. By managing them more efficiently or taking a few proactive steps, you can lower your energy costs and save.

Use compressed air only when and where it is necessary. Shut down your central compressor during non-working hours. If small amounts of compressed air are required, separate those uses from the main system and supply them from a smaller compressor, such as fire sprinkler systems.

Maintain air pressure at the lowest pressure acceptable. Evaluate your pressure requirements carefully. Some facilities operate at higher working pressures to satisfy small high-pressure applications or to compensate for pressure drops from undersized piping.

If your facility relies on compressed air, you already know how energy-hungry compressors can be. In fact, the cost to run one can easily exceed the purchase cost within a single year.

These collimators can be glued into a 2D array with high precision and all light channels are thus parallel. The type of fiber, the operating wavelength, the working distance and other parameters could be defined by the customer.

SQS Vláknová optika has developed highly precise fiber optic collimators with low angular misalignment of the optical beam against the collimator geometrical axis. These collimators are designed to minimize insertion loss for signal passing through the air gap.

The lenses can be designed according to the customer requirements. Standardly all of the paramaters are simulated in ZEMAX software.

On a continual basis, monitor, check and inspect all components of your compressed air systems for wear, proper temperatures and settings, leaks, proper lubrication and clogged filters.

Consider replacing your old drain valves with new electronic sensing drains which discharge only when necessary. This can save you five times the purchase price in wasted air each year. Older mechanical float type drain valves often get stuck open and timer-based drains open when not needed.
