PL500
The PL500 lead/lag controller improves reliability and operating efficiency of two-compressor, single-room systems. This controller operates two air compressors more efficiently to meet plant compressed air requirements. Each compressor is independently started, loaded, unloaded, and shut down based on plant pressure as demand varies. A single pressure transducer, located at the compressed air system’s main header or air receiver, continuously measures plant pressure.
Have two compressors? Save up to 30% in energy consumption & costs.
The PL500:
- Responds to production demand in real time.
- Stabilizes system pressure.
- Stages compressors to meet production demand.
- Rotates compressor loading to balance operating hours.
- Allows loading and unloading compressor control.
- Utilizes efficient compressor part load performance capabilities.
- Is compatible with all compressor manufacturers.
- Maintains compressor manufacturers' native controls, alarms & safety systems.
- Reduces operating and maintenance costs.
