Justification factors: The compressed air system is a mission critical element. As a key component of production, it is vital to the success of daily operations. Air compressors (Curtis-Toledo) have been in service for approximately twenty years. The Kaeser compressor has been in service approximately nine years with major repairs. The addition of many automated pieces of new equipment has greatly increased the demand on the current air compressors. Currently, there is no way of monitoring or controlling the status of the compressed air system. Having the ability to control and monitor the status of the compressed air system would greatly reduce system downtime.
