How to calculate the electricity price of air compressor?

Answer:

Per cubic meter / the cost of compressed air can be calculated by the following: assume that the motor power factor service coefficient = 110% = 0.9 of a typical air compressor every 1 HP can produce 4CFM 1 HP = 110%x0.746kW/0.9 = 0.912kW 1CFM 0.228kW so compressed air if each unit of electricity was 0.65 yuan 1CFM = 0.1482 yuan / hour 1 cubic meters / min = 35.315CFM so 1 cubic meters / min = 5.23 yuan / hour so a 10 cubic meters / air compressors running 8000 hours consumption: 10 x 8000 x 5.23 = 418694 yuan in a typical factory, compressed air system annually compressed air leakage accounted for the total demand of 20%. assumed a factory run 8000 hours per 0.65 yuan electricity pressure = 7 kgf/cm2 factory gas: 10 cubic meters / in charge of road leakage: 20%:2 cubic meters / minute total volume: 12 cubic meters / min of compressed air X 8000 x 5.23 hour electricity 10 yuan = 418694 yuan 2 x 8000 hours x 5.23 yuan = 83738 yuan 502433 yuan in total leakage also produced additional load enough force of 2 air compressors operating at the same time. No preparation for any one machine can not maintain under the pressure of 7 kgf/cm2 produced 2 cubic meters / minute leaking point leakage required: 3 3mm leak: 2.2 cubic meters / minute, or 1 6mm leak: 2.832 cubic meters / minute
Air compressor acquisition costs 2: air compressor maintenance costs 3: energy costs (electricity). Among them, electricity accounts for more than 80% of the total production cost.While designing the PDLG series compressors, we will do our best to consider energy saving, which is the foundation of the whole product development, and always runs through R & D, manufacturing, installation and after-sales service.
An air compressor is a device for compressing gases. The air compressor is similar to the pump. Most air compressors are reciprocating plugs, rotating blades, or rotating screws. Centrifugal compressors are very large applications.
