Compressor VP 10/9: lower current draw with no teardown or shutdown

Compressor current draw decreased, the machine remained in operation without disassembly or shutdown. 8.8 % — compressor current draw, 110.8 → 101 A (2001).

Report conclusion

Compressor VP 10/9 was treated by XADO technology without teardown and without stopping production — directly under regular service conditions. After 160 hours of operation the current draw fell from 110.8 A to 101 A. The report notes separately that by that moment the treatment had gone through two incomplete stages: the figure was taken on an unfinished cycle. The wording of the report, verbatim: “The result obtained gives grounds to speak of an electricity saving of at least 9.8 A”. For a continuous-duty compressor unit this is a direct cost item: the reduction holds on the running machine, without taking the equipment out for repair and without replacing parts.

About this result: Power consumption

Limits of this report: The results refer to the reciprocating two-stage compressor VP 10/9 of the stated installation; with other equipment and a different load pattern the figures may differ. The treatment was performed by Vlad-Khado (Vladikavkaz) — the same company drew up and certified the report.

Application submitted by

Pilot treatment on the enterprise's equipment

  • any oil- or grease-lubricated assemblies: gearboxes, engines, compressors, bearings and others;
  • treatment within the regular operating cycle, without halting production;
  • instrumental measurements before and after: vibration, temperature, power consumption or current;
  • procedure for the specific assembly, dose calculation and support from a XADO engineer.

After the application, a XADO engineer will agree the units and the list of measurements with you.
