06 Effective Air Preparation Excelon® Plus with 54D General Purpose Regulator R84 Excelon® Plus IEPS Continuous monitoring and control of the pressure in the compressed air system is key when trying to manage energy use and efficiency in processes. Monitoring devices such as pressure gauges can offer a visual indication to users, while pressure switches signal back to the machine, which then communicates to another device, such as a proportional valve, to provide accurate pressure adjustment. A device such as Norgren's IEPS can measure and monitor the secondary pressure. Such a device can be used in a traditional way where meeting or exceeding that pressure setting gives a digital output of a switch. This device is also future proofed for IIoT applications. Using the IO-Link protocol, the output signal from a transducer offers additional process data that can be used for predicative maintenance and other machine optimising routines. Variation in an application's processes can cause a variety of problems. Pressure regulators enable a constant outlet pressure, even while inlet pressure fluctuates, reducing variations in the process. Excelon® Plus comes with either a market standard plastic knob, or the more durable T handle with metal bonnet for arduous environments and applications. With a choice of three spring range options, it can cater for primary pressures up to 20 bar. Finally, when setting the pressure regulator, always set it with the pressure increasing, which means in the event of inadvertently overshooting the set pressure, it should be reduced to at least 15psi below the set pressure and then taken back up to the set pressure. 5 Ensure correct operation of pressure regulators 6 Be sure to add pressure switches R82
