For most companies, the air compressor uses more electricity than any other type of equipment. One simple operation that uses compressed air can easily waste thousands of those electricity dollars per year if not properly controlled. The EFC has been designed to improve efficiency by minimising compressed air use and, as a result, reduces compressed air costs. It turns on the air only when the part is present and provides just enough air to complete a specific task or operation.
The EFC has an easy electrical connection for voltages from 100 to 240VAC,50/60 Hz making it suitable for applications throughout the world. The compact photoelectric sensor has a sensitivity adjustment and detects objects up to 3′ (1 metre) away. The sensor has superior immunity to noise and inductive loads that are common to industrial environments and installs easily in tight spaces with the supplied mounting bracket. The control system provides flexibility with numerous valve operating modes and timing delays. The polycarbonate enclosure is suitable for use in a wide range of applications including those located in wet environments.
