    App Highlights Potential Compressed Air Energy Savings

    Users of pneumatic valve positioners can now assess the energy efficiency of their valve installations with ABB’s (UK) new compressed air calculator app for the Apple iPhone and iPad.

    Based on the amount of compressed air consumed by conventional positioners, the app shows how using the latest smart positioner technology can help operators to dramatically reduce their energy costs

    Easy-to-follow instructions show the user exactly what parameters are needed to calculate any potential savings. The user is prompted to enter the number of pneumatic positioners on site, air cost per standard cubic foot and the percentage of time spent at a steady state to calculate the user's current compressed air energy costs. These costs are then compared to the potential savings that could be achieved using ABB's TZID-C and EDP300 intelligent positioners, where compressed air is only consumed when required.

    The app also allows you to measure savings in different currencies, including Sterling, Euros and US Dollars.
