TMC Smart Air® - the compressor revolution
TMC Smart Air® compressors utilize the latest energy-saving technology. This enables the compressor to precicely adjust the compressed air production according to the compressed air demand.

Save 40% of the energy cost
It is always difficult to plan a ship’s future requirements for compressed air. Therefore, the owners often safeguard by oversizing the compressors based on estimated future needs.
TMC Smart Air® automatically adjusts the air production and energy consumption to the actual compressed air requirements.
Therefore, you can safely buy a TMC Smart Air® compressor that is big enough to cover future needs. TMC Smart Air® only uses enough energy to produce the amount of compressed air needed - no more, no less. Thus you don’t have to pay for unnecessary energy consumption or unnecessary wear and tear.
The installation is often based on a traditional compressor with too big capacity. The result is frequent starts/stops and frequent load/unload cycles with high start peaks and high energy consumption. The wear and tear on the compressor and the lifecycle cost will be high.
