Kaeser Compressors’ Sigma Air Manager 2 (SAM 2)
SAM 2 is a master control system for all compressed air production and treatment components. It optimizes pressure values, automatically adjusts system air delivery to accommodate fluctuating air demand, and optimizes system efficiency by constantly analyzing the relationship between control losses, switching losses, and pressure flexibility. Moreover, SAM 2 enables predictive maintenance with its built-in maintenance reminders and messaging capabilities. These features not only boost operational reliability and efficiency, but also significantly reduce energy costs.
With its user-friendly 12-inch color touch screen, SAM 2 shows at a glance whether the system is operating in the energy management "green zone,” as well as operating status, pressure history, flow, power consumption, and error messages. Advanced networking capabilities mean data can be accessed anytime, anywhere.
