The T1 will control your specific compressed air needs as the system requires, and will conserve your power when the compressed air need is reduced.Today's controllers are much more powerful and versatile than prior models. The amazing T-1 Microprocessor is the brains behind our VFD compressors - which allows you to program your daily operation schedule and shut off during factory shutdown up to 28 different times per week!The built in sequencer will control up to seven VFD or NON-VFD compressors with the VFD compressor as the trim machine! And you can configure the display with any one of twenty operational readings - while still showing the always-visible dedicated pressure display!Wide power range for 200 V, 230 V, 460 V and 575 V.Pressure transducer motor speed control, provided by pressure signal via our T1 microprocessor control.Programmable digital outputs available.Digital inputs from 2 pressure sensors, and a temperature sensor.8 programmable parameter sets with S-curves, power off function, PID process controller, electronic motor protection and internal timer. Output frequencies up to 160 Hz with output voltage stabilization; switching frequencies up to 16 kHz; output phase monitoring.DC bus circuit connection and motor thermal sensor connection are provided.All new Platinum and Platinum-Plus Warranties available.

Energy Costs 0
Based on 7500 Hours a Year, 87% of the Cost of Ownership for Your Compressor is ENERGY.This chart is based on a power cost of 8 cents per Kwh. Depreciation cost is rated at 5 years at 8% interest.
Note 0
The Ultimate Performance Rotary Screw Air Compressor.
Operating Cost Savings Over Time 0
The Cost Savings Chart illustrates the reduced operating cost of a VFD Unit by correcting poor air usage: Five day/week operation, erratic demand fluctuations (28% of installations), steady weekend consumption with leaks (64% of installations). This shows 24 hour operation with low night shift and high day shift consumption at more than 40% savings after 5 years. In many instances the VFD Compressor will have a payback of the additional cost within 2 1/2 to 3 years.
Product Information Business Tax Incentives
Advanced Energy Manufacturing Tax Credit ("MTC")The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009: 1. ("Recovery Act") amended or added numerous energy tax incentives available to businesses, utilities, and government. Many of these incentives were previously modified by Emergency Economic Stabilization Act in 2008: 2. The majority of the incentives were originally passed into law under the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPACT): 3. The Recovery Act also provided additional tax incentives for consumers.In addition to government tax incentives, some local utility companies also have rebate plans or incentives.Air is drawn through the air filter and inlet valve (1), into the air end (2). The air mixes with oil as the rotors in the air end (2) compress it. After compression, the oil and air mixture is discharged into the sump tank (3). Inside the sump tank (3), the bulk of the oil is separated from the air by change of direction and reduction of velocity. The air passes through a separator element (4) housed in the sump tank (3) to remove any remaining oil. When air pressure builds to 60 psi, the minimum pressure valve (5) opens and allows the separated air to enter the aftercooler (6). After being cooled, the air is delivered to the system for use. Oil that was removed from the air by the separator element (4) collects in the bottom of the element. A scavenger line removes the oil collected in the bottom of the separator element, passes it through a sight glass (containing a screen and an orifice), and injects it directly into the air end.
Product Information Operating Efficiency
The Power Consumption Efficiency Curve Chart shows how the Variable Frequency Drive operates more efficiently than other controls in providing air delivery. The VFD helps reduce energy bills. Operating at 70% capacity, the VFD consumes 25% less power than a standard compressor operating with on-off control and 20% less than a compressor with modulating control. The Variable Frequency Drive has a soft start feature that maintains a low starting current (see start-up chart on page 3). This reduces the stress on the site power supply and also reduces motor wear. The VFD system complies with the electromagnetic compatibility standard and is CSA listed. The VFD system is not limited to a fixed number of starts per hour.
Product Information Practical Operation
The specific operating pressure needed to allow correct plant operation needs to be determined. The VFD Lead should be set up so the needed pressure is midway between the load and unload settings. The Lags should have their modulation regulator set so there is minimal modulation. The whole system will operate as efficiently as a VFD will, and thus it should not modulate until it is at this pressure to unload pressure. The VFD Lead will do a good job of maintaining the needed pressure, and therefore, it does not need to be set higher than needed. The Lead has PI control functions in it which will help to stabilize the control in changing conditions. The Lead's pressure schedule can also be used to totally shut down the system at certain times of the day or week, or to reduce the system pressure for those times of the day when less air (CFM) is needed for normal operation.
Product Information Save Money
Please note from the graph below that the VFD will not draw the in-rush current that other starters will require. This means that starting the VFD compressor will not incur the penalty payments charged by power companies for momentary very high current draw associated with other starting methods.
Product Information Sequencer Operation Principles
The VFD compressor serves as the "Lead" machine. It runs at the speed needed to supply the necessary air pressure, and calls on the other "Lag" compressors to run when required. If there is more than one Lag, the Lead will determine which one is next up, and how many are needed to supply the right amount of air to the plant. The Lead should be close to the same size or larger than the Lags so they don't suddenly over-pressure the system. Normally the VFD maintains tight pressure control unless the air demand is low enough to reach the unload pressure. In this case it will maintain the pressure midway between the load and unload pressures. It attempts to maintain this, but will speed up or slowdown to maintain this midpoint pressure, while adding or taking off Lags to maintain the desired pressure range. If it can't keep up, it will call on the next Lag to help, and slow down to trim to the demand. When it has slowed to its minimum speed, it will send the Lag into unload and to off, and will speed up to maintain the pressure. If the demand drops to zero, the Lead will also sleep and go to a standby mode.
