C And L Supplies Boge Compressors To NCLA The National Centre For Laser Applications (NCLA) has installed two Boge S15 screw compressors and a trinity controller. The NCLA develops laser systems which are available to the manufacturing industry and used in the development of products and processes. After reviewing NCLA's air requirements, C and L Industrial recommended the company replaced its Boge CD7 with two Boge S15 screw compressors, alongside a trinity controller. The S15 forms part of the Boge S-series screw-compressor product range. The Boge trinity is a modern transducer operated changeover switch designed to control up to three compressors. The system automatically sets itself to optimise pressure cascading - only the maximum pressure (Pmax) and the minimum pressure (Pmin) need to be entered into the controller. Trinity takes control of a compressed-air system and ensures that only the compressed air required at any one time is produced. This reduces operating costs...

Boge Screw Compressor Reduces Energy Costs RSL Steeper has reduced its compressed-air energy costs by 45 per cent through replacing an ageing compressor with a Boge S15 screw compressor at its manufacturing facility in Leeds. RSL Steeper is a supplier of prosthetic and orthotic patient care services in the UK. At its Leeds site, RSL manufactures a range of upper extremity prosthetic systems and components including cosmetic products, as well as mechanical and electric-powered systems from simple passive hands with silicone cosmetic gloves to multi-function Myo electric hands and powered elbows. Compressed air is used in the manufacturing process to power a number of air tools as well as a bio-reactor. The bio-reactor performs an important health and safety role in the production process. VOCs (volatile organic compounds) are generated in the manufacturing process from applications such as gluing. The bio-reactor purifies such air pollutants. The company has recently realised redu...
