Mattei RVX55i Compressor Upgrade in Evesham

At West Midlands Compressors Ltd, we are committed to providing our clients with top-of-the-line equipment and services to enhance their operational efficiency. Recently, we had the privilege of working with a reputable customer in Evesham, replacing their existing Atlas Copco GA55VSD+FF with the highly efficient Mattei RVX55i variable speed compressor. This upgrade marks a significant improvement in their compressed air system, bringing numerous benefits to their operations.

Selecting the Mattei RVX55i

Both the previous Atlas Copco GA55VSD+FF and the replacement Mattei RVX55i use variable-speed technology. A VSD alone does not demonstrate a saving from the replacement. Relevant factors include condition, demand matching, operating pressure and performance.

1. Energy assessment: Compare the two machines at the site’s actual demand and pressure. A quantified saving needs a representative baseline and follow-up data.

2. Reliability: Assess the replacement’s condition, installation, maintenance needs and backup arrangements. No compressor guarantees uninterrupted production.

3. Air quality: The RVX55i is oil-lubricated. Dryers and filters must be specified for the process; replacing the compressor alone does not guarantee uncontaminated air.

4. Maintenance: Compare the relevant service schedules and parts costs. Vane technology alone does not establish a lower maintenance bill.

5. Quiet Operation: Noise pollution is a common issue in many industrial settings. The Mattei RVX55i operates quietly, creating a more pleasant and safer working environment.

Installation Process

Our team of experienced engineers meticulously planned and executed the installation of the Mattei RVX55i. The process included:

• System Assessment: A thorough evaluation of the existing compressed air system to understand the specific needs and requirements of the customer.
• Seamless Transition: Careful removal of the Atlas Copco GA55VSD+FF and installation of the Mattei RVX55i with minimal disruption to the customer’s operations.
• Optimisation and Testing: Fine-tuning the new compressor to ensure it operates at peak efficiency and conducting comprehensive testing to verify performance.

Positive Impact on Operations

The project replaced the existing compressor. This case study does not provide a verified before-and-after energy or maintenance-cost comparison, so no quantified saving is claimed.

Conclusion

The replacement of the Atlas Copco GA55VSD+FF with the Mattei RVX55i has proven to be a game-changer for our customer in Evesham. At West Midlands Compressors Ltd, we take pride in offering solutions that not only meet but exceed the expectations of our clients. The Mattei RVX55i variable speed compressor exemplifies our commitment to delivering superior performance, reliability, and energy efficiency.
