TMC is the only provider of marine screw compressors who is solely dedicated to providing compressed air for marine use. Since the start in 1989, TMC’s only focus has been the design and construction of compressed air equipment that satisfy the extreme marine requirements.
Over the last 3 years, TMC have signed more than 1600 orders for complete compressed air systems ranging from 50 to 10,000 m3/h.
Focus on TMC Smart Air® - the cost-saving compressor technology
At SMM, wewill exhibit our TMC Smart Air compressor range.
Energy costs make up to 80 % of the compressed air cost. Using a TMC Smart Air energy-saving compressor, you can save 40 % energy or more. This significantly reduces the life cycle cost of the compressor and gives less CO2 emissions.
The TMC Smart Air compressor is controlling the capacity and power consumption precisely to the air demand. Constant pressure in the network at all times will minimize the power consumption and reduce the wear on the compressor. Soft start will increase the lifetime on the transmission such as belts and couplings and give lower pressure and less movement on all parts, all of this contributing to reducing the life cycle cost by 25-30%.
Compared to a conventional compressor providing the same amount of compressed air, the energy consumption of a TMC SA 60 will be reduced by 161,000 kWh during one year. With an estimated energy cost of USD 0.20, this means an annual saving of USD 32,200 and a reduction in CO2 emissions of 103,040 kg - for one compressor.
Spare Part Kits for cost-saving and ease of maintenance
In all sectors of the ship equipment industry, non-original spare parts are becoming more and more sophisticated, looking identical to the original parts. But the risks of using non-original spare parts are still the same. Material specification is often rationalized, resulting in rapid wear, compromised performance, poor reliability, higher oil and fuel consumption and even component damage or system failure.
To make it even easier for the ships to choose original TMC spare parts for their TMC compressors, TMC have introduced spare part kits. The spare part kits contain all parts that should be replaced after a certain number of running hours/years. A service CD containing live video instructions helps the personnel onboard safely perform the routine maintenance operations.
Benefits of using the kits include: lower price per part than when purchased item by item, time saved on ordering and checking, and certainty of getting all necessary parts - and no unnecessary parts. This means there will be no unscheduled stops due to missing parts.
TMC spare part kits include kits such as 1500 hours/1 year kit, oil change kit, separator kit, etc. Kits are available for all TMC compressor models.
