Compressed Air & Energy Compressed air is a versatile, reliable and safe way of transmitting energy, is often considered as the fourth utility after electricity, gas and water and is used by almost all industrial businesses. According to the British Compressed Air Society and the Carbon Trust, 10% of electricity supplied to industry is used to compress air, accounting for over 15,000 GWHr of electricity, in today s terms, this equates to over 1 billion per year., with over 35 years of expertise, specialise in compressed air systems. We carry out detailed compressed air system surveys and provide our clients with innovative and practical solutions which maximise their plant uptime and minimise their energy and operational costs. 10 Year Life Cycle Costs 15% Capital and Maintenance 85% Energy Costs Why an Iceberg? A compressed air system can be viewed in a similar way to an iceberg! The iceberg helps illustrate the hidden cost of your compressed air system. The visible area represents the initial equipment purchase and routine servicing and maintenance. And hidden beneath is the ever increasing & uncontrollable energy costs. We at mb air systems, continue to strive to reduce your energy costs, by utilising innovative products and solutions. 7

Energy Audits Improving compressed air system efficiency can easily make average energy savings of 35%. This often can be achieved through added awareness and focus in targeted areas without the need for investment in new plant and equipment. The establishment of these target areas would very much depend on high quality compressed air audits, data collection, analysis and recommendations. Our data logging devices facilitate highly accurate data logging, analysis and reporting exercises for air compressor systems. They are capable of monitoring any pressure range and the input power of up to 15 electrically driven air compressors, simultaneously, regardless of their manufacturer or pressure regulation methodology. Audits A properly conducted audit of your compressed air system provides you with the only sure way to identify the often mysterious workings of your air system. Benefits of a Compressed Air System Audit Reduced operating costs Improved manufacturing productivity Reduced capital expenditure The problems associated with operating a modern compressed air system are fairly complex and often camouflaged to the untrained eye. That s where a professional Air Audit can help by addressing the total process of producing compressed air... not just the compressors. Its about taking compressed air, looking at it as your fourth utility, and making compressed air as dependable as your electric, water and gas services. Air Audits help plant operators optimise their systems and often result in turning off compressors! In the past you asked compressor manufacturers, like Ingersoll-Rand to build the best engineered, most reliable, energy-efficient air compressors in the industry. But in today s global business climate, you need more than great equipment to survive and thrive. To drive operational excellence we must go beyond the components of an air system and find solutions to the operating issues every air consumer faces. Your air system problems require total solutions. A professionally conducted Air Audit will help you define system problems, whether they are in demand, distribution or supply, allowing you to develop cost-efficient solutions that meet your return on investment goals. 8

Air Treatment Overview Compressed air dryers reduce the quantity of water vapour, liquid water, hydrocarbon, and hydrocarbon vapour in compressed air. Moisture in compressed air damages compressed air systems in several ways: Erosion: Water mist erodes piping, valves and other system components. Corrosion: Mist condenses and combines with salts and acids within the system forming highly corrosive solutions. Microbacterial Contamination: Moisture supplies a growth medium for bacteria and mould, which produce acidic waste. Freezing: Water can freeze in compressed air lines shutting down the system and causing damage to the pipework. The result of moisture in compressed air is lower productivity, increased maintenance and higher operating costs. Air Treatment - Air Dryers By drying your compressed air to the correct dewpoint we can minimise the damage that wet compressed air causes to your process. Each application will require a different quality of compressed air, for this reason we offer a wide range of compressed air dryers from our principle suppliers Ingersoll Rand and domnick hunter. Compressed air dryers help to reduce the quantity of water vapour, liquid water, hydrocarbon and hydrocarbon vapour in compressed air. Direct Expansion and Thermal Mass Refrigerated Air dryers are best suited to industrial grade applications such as manufacturing, metal stamping, air tools, forging, assembly, sand blasting, painting and finishing. Desiccant type dryers are required to supply high quality, clean and dry compressed air for applications such as, instrumentation, oil and gas, chemical, electronics, pharmaceutical and the food and beverage industry. 19

Air Treatment Overview Twin Tower Desiccant Ingersoll Rand's innovative desiccant air dryers make it easier and more affordable than ever to deliver high-quality compressed air-virtually whatever it is needed for. What Differentiates Ingersoll Rand Desiccant Dryers? Ingersoll Rand desiccant dryers are designed to virtually eliminate costly production interruptions due to moisture. All of our dryers use twin desiccant towers and strategically positioned valves for drying compressed air. Switching valves are normally open, while purge valves are normally closed to allow air flow through the dryer in case of power loss. Strategically-placed filters that remove oil and contaminants ensure only clean, dried air exits the dryer. Every dryer features an IP54 package, providing increased protection of electrical components, controls and displays. Both heatless and heated blower dryers have several standard features to ensure high quality operation as well as options to customise dryers to fit the needs of your air system. How Desiccant Dryers Work Highly adsorbent desiccant removes moisture from compressed air as it passes through the online dryer tower. Refrigerated The 'D' Refrigerated Dryer Range - one range for all applications. These units provide a small footprint with complete, affordable solutions for applications ranging from dry cleaning to automotive body shops, to light processing and manufacturing applications. The high capacity units are designed for large-scale industrial, automotive and petrochemical applications. Clean, Reliable, Refrigerated Air These units provide complete, affordable solutions for a wide selection of applications, including Dry Cleaning. Light Processing. Petrochemical. Automotive. Manufacturing. Oil and Gas. 20

Air Treatment Overview Modular Desiccant The PNEUDRI range of heatless and heat regenerative dryers has proven to be the ideal solution for many thousands of compressed air users worldwide and in a wide variety of industries. PNEUDRI totally cleans and dries compressed air down to -40 C pressure dewpoint (pdp) as standard. For critical applications, PNEUDRI can be specified to provide a pressure dewpoint of -70 C pdp. It is worth noting that a pressure dewpoint of -26 C or better will not only prevent corrosion, but will also inhibit the growth of micro-organisms within the compressed air system. Multi-banking Unlike the loose filled adsorbent bed of traditional twin tower dryer designs, PNEUDRI with it s snowstorm filled adsorbent beds provides an equal resistance to air flow. Therefore, when the system flow of an installation exceeds the capacity of the largest single dryer model, PNEUDRI can be multi- banked to meet the demand. Should demand increase in the future, there is no need to replace the dryer with a larger unit, additional capacitycan be covered by simply adding an extra bank or banks, a feature only possible with PNEUDRI. 21

Air Treatment - Filtration We offer a wide range of compressed air filters developed by Ingersoll Rand and domnick hunter. Our filter range is suitable for all types of applications, from small workshops to breathing air systems and laboratories. Ingersoll Rand and domnick hunter filters represent the leading technology in compressed air filtration. Their filter elements combine, multiple layers of high-grade material, designed to repel moisture and oil so the element is not as easily saturated. This increases the filter element life and reduces the pressure drop across the filter. Air Treatment - Breathing Air domnick hunter provide a comprehensive range of breathing and medical air purification systems for use with Respiratory Protection Equipment (RPE) and in medical applications, along with purity tests and monitors. Breathing Air Testing We at mb air systems can provide breathing air quality tests in accordance with BS EN 12021:1999 as required by BS EN 529:2005. FiltAir-Receiver Air Receivers, unfortunately and unfairly, have been one of the most under rated equipment in a compressed air system. Virtually in all industrial applications compressed air demand varies. Air storage vessels in a compressed air systems balance the flow of air to the service lines and compressor controls. It has the following main roles: Act as a reservoir that can be called upon to meet intermittent demands that are in excess of the compressor s capacity. Create a more stable pressure in the system. Prevent the compressor cycling too frequently. Precipitates condensate, which may be present in the air. Reduce the air velocity through the vessel. FiltAir-Receiver (patent granted) combines the benefit of air storage and general purpose filtration in one simple solution. The unit is fitted with an integral separator element, which has been used successfully in a rotary screw air compressor s separator tank design for almost 30 years. 22

Nitrogen Generation domnick hunter nitrogen generators cover a wide range of flows and purities to exactly match the needs of applications including LCMS, GC,ICP, ELSD / CAD detector, Circular Dichroism and Sample Evaporation. The optional Generators incorporating an integrated oil free compressor completely eliminate any reliance on a house compressed air supply giving complete security of supply. The technology used to procure a continuous flow of high purity nitrogen is pressure swing absorption ( PSA ). This technique uses one or two carbon molecular sieves beds (CMS) to eliminate oxygen and other contaminants in the ambient air selectively. In the larger systems the beds alternate between the purification and regeneration modes to ensure continuous nitrogen production. Features & Benefits: Can operate from a standard factory compressed air supply Delivers 5% down to 10ppm oxygen content, without the need for any additional purification Available in 3 models offering varying flow rates and purities Automatic economy mode Built-in oxygen analyser for continuous purity monitoring Digital and analogue outputs for remote monitoring Alarm capabilities User friendly control interface Compact design Modular concept Safety in the oil and gas industry In the oil and gas industry, nitrogen is used to provide a low oxygen environment to prevent possible fire and explosion. It is used for a wide variety of processes such as purging flammable gas compressor seals, pigging or purging pipe-lines, blanketing storage tanks and vessels, flushing out flaring systems, well-head pressurising and catalytic reactor purging. Due to their unique design, energy efficiency and compact size, Parker nitrogen gas generators can provide a stable, dependable and high quality nitrogen gas supply for use in some of the most inaccessible areas. 23
