Compressed Air/Compressors

BEKO TECHNOLOGIES have again strengthened the UK team with the appointment of Tom Tighe as Service Business Development Manager. Tom has worked in the Compressed Air Industry for 25 years, notably for Air Power Centre and SPX Corporation. Chris Norris BEKO TECHNOLOGIES UK Service Manager, “When I heard that Tom was available I felt he would be sought after by our competitors and am delighted that he has joined us to add to the strong team. His expertise on downstream equipment particularly desiccant dryers, together with his contacts in high places in UK and Ireland will certainly help BEKO TECHNOLOGIES to continue to grow strongly”
Tom lives in Staffordshire with his partner Dawn and 2 teenage children. Away from work interests are cycling, tropical fish, gardening and DIY. A current project is learning the mandolin.

The Food and Beverage Grade Compressed Air Best Practice Guideline 102 is available from the British Compressed Air Society and contributing members such as BEKO TECHNOLOGIES. This best practice guideline has been produced because compressed air is a utility and as such its provision is normally included in the pre-requisite programme rather than the HACCP process.  There was also an opportunity to review and update the guideline.

Buying a new air compressor is a large investment for both large and small companies. But in fact, a compressor’s investment cost is very low if you look at a compressor’s life cycle.

Approximately 75% of the total cost is power / energy costs. If you are thinking of investing in a new compressor, it is this cost we at Worthington Creyssensac will try to minimize.

Worthington Creyssensac offers a brilliantly engineered solution to save energy in your compressed air production: the frequency driven compressor.

Key benefits:

• Recovers up to 94% of the energy of the compressor shaft power resulting in huge tangible savings
• Reduces your CO² emissions
• Plug & Play concept with all major mechanical parts pre-mounted in the canopy
