MONITORING COMPRESSOR PERFORMANCE | Leaks Repair | Air Compressor Energy Audit
Monitoring Compressor Performance with the VP Flow Terminal
The VPFlowTerminal enables you to measure flow, pressure, temperature with one single VPFlowScope. In addition, the VPFlowTerminal offers 4 analog input channels, which can be used for logging of any 4..20 mA based sensor. In this example, we will show you how to use the VPFlowTerminal to monitor compressor performance. Please note that this is not intended as an official compressor test, but you can use the data to track changes in performance, or to create a “practical” efficiency curve of the compressor when installed in the field. It is a great tool to get more insight in the real behavior of your system. This application note is also not intended to be a course on how to work with spreadsheet programs, so basic knowledge of a spreadsheet program is recommended.
