SMC VBA air booster regulator and Air Management System (AMS)

Monday, 13 May, 2024 | Supplied by: SMC Australia | New Zealand


SMC has developed two energy-efficient solutions for the food and beverage industries.

The latest air booster regulator, VBA-X3145 model, is capable of reducing air consumption by as much as 40% while increasing main line pressure by up to 1.7 times. Designed for easy installation (horizontal and vertical), the VBA series requires low maintenance, with a service life of 50 million or more cycles. It is designed to save money and reduce energy consumption, while ensuring any equipment downstream of the unit is protected against pressure fluctuations. It also boosts local line pressure without requiring additional power, and the desired output pressure can be adjusted easily, giving the user more control.

The recently released, new-generation compressed air management system, AMS series, is designed to reduce CO2 emissions and energy consumption by up to 62%. Benefits include visualisation, CO2 emission reduction and scalability. The series is also compatible with OPC UA, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and EtherCAT.
