CONCERTO: MORE EFFICIENCY FOR AIR COMPRESSORS, BIGGER SAVINGS FOR INDUSTRIES

Mattei presents Concerto, the versatile command and control system with customisable functions, perfect for monitoring several compressors with different performances and functionalities, by any manufacturer, even in already existing installations.

This solution can coordinate the operation of up to 16 machines, provided they are equipped with a remote startup-shutdown device, including variable speed devices equipped with inverters.

Its large display makes programming easy and user-friendly. For industries and craft companies, choosing Concerto means reducing waste due to malfunctioning compressed air systems by keeping the energy and operating costs always monitored.

ConcertoConcerto centralises control of the line pressure trend, keeping it within preset values, and automatically regulates the compressed air production, adapting it to the actual demand. It manages the operating cycle of the individual units on the basis of a programmable sequence and, independently of the combination and models, always selects the best configuration that maximises the system’s efficiency. In this way it provides a 99% reduction in energy costs, linked to idle running, with an overall saving of more than 35%.

Concerto calculates the dimensions of the network and measures any leaks from it, displaying the energy efficiency parameters of the system. In addition, in the event of failure of a compressor, the controller can automatically activate another one of similar capacity or, if necessary, control the startup of several machines sequentially to avoid high current peaks.

By ensuring a lower number of motor startups, Concerto limits wear on components and prolongs compressors’ life cycle by 50%, with a 30% reduction in maintenance expenditures.

Among the new functions the following stand out: memorisation of the working and running hours of each compressor, the daily, weekly and monthly scheduling of system startup and shutdown times, and failure and consumption display, directly on a PC, by means of an optional web server.

Finally, accessories like driers and filters can be connected to Concerto, by means of digital inputs, as well as sensors with analogue outputs that make it possible to manage and monitor the line, even remotely.

Mattei director Silvia Contaldi declares: “Concerto has been developed to respond to the ever-greater number of requests by the market for solutions able to increase the efficiency of industrial systems without necessarily providing for replacement of the compressors. Consolidated experience in air production and treatment puts us at the top not only for what regards the machinery but also for verification of their operation. The brilliant results achieved by Concerto confirm that better system management can ensure significant energy savings for the customer.”
