EXAIR EFC electronic flow control for compressed air

Click2Contact

EXAIR’s EFC electronic flow control for compressed air is designed to minimise compressed air use on blowoff, drying, cooling, conveying and static elimination operations. It combines a photoelectric sensor with a timing control that limits compressed air use by turning it off when no part is present. With eight programmable on and off modes, the timing control permits easy tuning to the application requirements.

For most companies, the air compressor uses more electricity than any other type of equipment. If not properly controlled, one simple operation using compressed air can easily waste thousands of electricity dollars per year. The EFC improves efficiency by minimising compressed air use, resulting in reduced compressed air costs. By turning on the air only when a part is present, it provides just enough air to complete a specific task or operation.

The EFC has an easy electrical connection for voltages from 100 to 240 VAC. With a sensitivity adjustment and ability to detect objects up to 1 m away, the compact photoelectric sensor has high immunity to noise and inductive loads common to industrial environments. The polycarbonate enclosure of the EFC is suitable for use in a wide range of applications including those located in wet environments.
