Compressed Air Systems

Compressed Air Systems

When it comes to designing compressed air systems, Askon is second-to-none.  We are sought after by industry and engineering professionals alike.  The Askon team of system design specialists have solved the most complex issues in today’s manufacturing environments.

Askon is 100% agnostic to all compressed air products.  We work with distributors, end-user clients, and utilities alike.  Askon designs systems from start to finish, troubleshoots existing conditions, and determines future concerns that may arise from current design limitations.

Consulting & Engineering Services

Askon provides engineering services and expertise to companies in need of a specialized skill set directly related to compressed air systems.

Our consulting professionals work with clients to define solutions or to assist determine and recommend the best course of action for a given initiative.  Askon’s engineering consulting services can save time, effort, and money for companies that do not have the time specialized compressed air knowledge or expertise for handling a specific task.

Askon’s comprehensive range of engineering services for compressed air systems is a value-added capability.  Our staff offers clients complete product development specific services to assist identify problems with existing systems.  When design or performance problems are identified, Askon can efficiently and effectively recommend practical solutions to improve energy efficiency while optimizing system performance.

Writing Specifications

Our team of specialists works with clients to write compressed air technical specifications, from developing and understanding realistic expectations, needs, and requirements to proper planning for dissemination in a variety of ways.

Writing specifications will include functional, technical information, workflows, and diagrams as needed, user and environmental constraints and limitations, safety and reliability, as well as optimal performance metrics.

Energy Modeling

Askon models air compressor energy usage to determine energy savings in compressed air systems from air-use reduction strategies, machine sequencing and control, and other changes.  We measure power signatures and other compressor parameters as inputs to calculate various performance metrics to estimate energy savings.

Metrics for creating relationships between compressor power consumption and air output can in turn be applied to your Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).  Additional relationships for modeling compressor power as a function of system pressure and flow for modeling the change in system efficiency is also built for accurate energy modeling, enabling our clients to take actionable next steps.

Commissioning Services

Askon provides retro-commissioning (RCx) and metering based commissioning (MBx) services for compressed air systems.  Our commissioning team, led by professionals, brings a deep understanding and passion for both cutting-edge sustainable compressed air technologies and reliable, proven efficient design and application.

In addition to extensive knowledge of compressed air systems, Askon provides all the analytical data, metrics, and documentation.  This includes commissioning plans, owners project requirements, commissioning specifications, and so forth.  We will coordinate and assist with training to ensure that all compressed air systems operate at optimum efficiency.
