EMOTRON - DEDICATED DRIVE
Efficient compressor operation
Emotron develops solutions for starting, protecting, controlling and stopping machines and processes driven by electrical motors

Optimize your compressors

Controlling your compressors with Emotron solutions ensures efficient, reliable and user-friendly operation. Damage and downtime are prevented, maintenance is reduced and energy consumption is minimized.

Protect your compressors against damage and downtime
Emotron offers efficient protection of your compressors, saving maintenance and downtime costs. Our shaft power monitors, also built into our other products, prevent damage and inefficiency by sending a warning or stopping the process, for example if cooling agent enters into the compressor screw.

This is done by using a unique technique of calculating the motor shaft power. Any over- and underload situation is detected immediately, across the entire speed range. Using the motor as its own sensor means no costly and service-demanding external sensors are required.

Smooth starts reduce mechanical stress
Emotron softstarters greatly reduce start currents, minimizing mechanical stress and allowing you to use smaller fuses and less expensive cables. The results are reduced energy, installation and maintenance costs.

The built-in torque control enables you to start more smoothly with constant acceleration. This means improved process control and reduced maintenance. The compressor can be rotated at a slow speed to ensure free rotation prior to starting.

Reliable and efficient compressors save energy
Energy savings and minimized wear are achieved thanks to the Emotron variable speed drives continuously adapting flow/pressure to the level required. Inefficiency due to worn equipment, air leakage or the compressor idling is detected immediately.

Parameters can be set in your own process units, for example m3/s or bar, making monitoring easier and safer. Up to seven compressors can be controlled without using PLCs or other external equipment.
