Introduction
2020 has not quite been the year any of us expected. The global pandemic has had - and in fact continues to have - far reaching effects on every part of our lives. As we go to print with this edition of the KAESER report, stage 4 restrictions remain in place for metropolitan Melbourne. With our head office in Dandenong - like the majority of other businesses based in the metro area - this has massively impacted how we do business. Nevertheless, with many staff working remotely and a skeleton staff in our warehouse, our head office is still operating to support essential business in Victoria and support our customers nationally and in New Zealand.
Peter Eckberg, Managing Director
Just a reminder for our Victorian customers requiring service The new factory will double the size of the existing facility support throughout stage 4 restrictions, that we do remain increasing the warehousing, workshop and office capacity. While available. Just phone 1800 853 133. COVID-19 may have slowed down proceedings it has not stopped the company’s reinvestment plans. KAESER Compressors We also encourage you to follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook or has always reinvested heavily into the business. The current Twitter for our COVID-19 related updates. Alternatively, we have pandemic has not halted those efforts. When we finally come out a dedicated COVID-19 updates page on our website that you can the other end, we will be in an even stronger position to continue access from the homepage. Just visit au.kaeser.com to support our customers. Locally, the pandemic has led us to develop a number of initiatives - We hope you enjoy this edition! which include Contactless Service - to ensure that compressed air users can continue to operate reliable and efficient compressed air systems. You can learn more about these new initiatives on page 15. In this edition of the KAESER report we also share some case studies with you, that not only show the diversity of compressed air uses, but how in each case we are assisting our customers in reliably and efficiently meeting their compressed air requirements. Turn to page 4 to start reading them. Looking ahead, once restrictions begin to ease in Melbourne we anticipate work will finally be able to commence on the construction of a brand new factory at our Australian head office. This project should have started earlier this year but it has unfortunately been delayed due to COVID-19.

Medical breathing air for new hyperbaric chamber at the Royal Hobart Hospital
The Royal Hobart Hospital recently opened its new Department of Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine featuring a new state-of-the-art dual capability hyperbaric chamber. Designed by Fink Engineering and powered by a KAESER compressed air system, it is a first for the southern hemisphere delivering patient treatment and a world-class research and training facility.
The Royal Hobart Hospital (RHH) is Tasmania’s largest hospital that provides a range of tertiary health services to the State of Tasmania. In May 2020, the RHH officially opened its new Department of Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine, State Referral Centre, featuring a new state-of-the-art hyperbaric chamber which boasts a greater capacity and capability for patient treatment as well as supplying a world-class research and training facility. Treating patients with a medical hyperbaric chamber A medical hyperbaric chamber is used to deliver Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment (HBOT). HBOT is a well-known therapy for treating decompression illness and as such it is essential for commercial and recreational diving industries. In addition it has been used for many years to treat patients with an array of medical conditions such as diabetic ulcers, tissue injury from radiation after treatment for cancer, osteoradionecrosis and serious infections such as gangrene. While most patients with such conditions will heal eventually by traditional methods, in addition to standard treatment, a course of HBOT can speed up and enhance the healing process for many patients. HBOT works by increasing the partial pressure of oxygen in the blood and tissues. The patient sits or lies in a hyperbaric chamber where the pressure is increased to 2.4 atmospheres and is given 100% oxygen to breath via a mask or hood system. The high partial pressure of oxygen increases the diffusion distance that oxygen can penetrate into tissues. Repeated hyperoxic stimulation has proven to accelerate the healing process, where on average a patient undertakes around 20 to 40 treatments over the course of four to eight consecutive weeks.
KAESER report | 5
A first for the southern hemisphere The new hyperbaric chamber at RHH was designed and engineered by Fink Engineering.
example in the aerospace sector, to study the effects of high altitude on the body, in particular low oxygen levels and low ambient air pressure.
A world leader in hyperbaric technology, Fink Engineering is based in Queensland, Australia and pioneered the design and development of the rectangular shape for hyperbaric chambers back in 1994. It was the first company internationally to design such a chamber which has been used effectively ever since.
Delivering high quality and high volumes of clean and medical breathing air High quality, dry and clean compressed air is essential for a medical hyperbaric chamber to operate. Once patients have been fitted with a breathing mask or hood system, the doors to the hyperbaric chamber are closed. The atmospheric pressure inside the chamber is then increased by opening values which allow high pressure air to enter.
Unlike traditional cylindrical shaped and double locked hyperbaric chambers with a typical patient capacity of 2 to 5 patients, these rectangular shaped hyperbaric chambers feature a triple lock and can simultaneously treat up to 9-10 patients. The new hyperbaric chamber now in operation at the RHH is also fitted with capability of depressurisation to simulate altitude. There are currently only a few dual capable chambers like it in the world. A first for the southern hemisphere, this can pressurise (hyperbaric) and depressurise (hypobaric). This means that aside from treating patients with its hyperbaric capabilities, the chamber can be used for altitude research and training using its hypobaric capabilities. It will be possible for researchers, for 6 | KAESER report
For many years, Fink Engineering has chosen KAESER compressed air equipment to meet these requirements and in the case of RHH, two CSD 125 T rotary screw compressors with integrated refrigerant dryers along with a comprehensive air treatment package was chosen. As George Fink, Project and Maintenance Supervisor at Fink Engineering explains: ‘The hyperbaric chambers require high quality and high volumes of clean and medical breathing air that meets Australian and New Zealand standards. It is essential that the air is medical grade and clean. Staff inside the chamber breathe pressurised air while attending
to patients. Patients receive hyperbaric oxygen treatment while breathing from a mask or a hood. They also breathe the hyperbaric chamber air when taking short breaks during treatment. It is also essential that the compressed air system is reliable. Ultimately the last thing you would want is a compressor failure to stop the chamber functioning mid-treatment. That’s also a reason we choose to install a double redundancy system. That way there is always a backup compressor if required to supply the compressed air needed to finish a treatment.’ The compressed air solution for RHH The CSD T series of rotary screw compressors with an integrated refrigeration dryer from KAESER Compressors deliver premium compressed air quality. The latest generation of CSD systems not only deliver more compressed air for less energy, but they also combine ease of use and maintenance with exceptional versatility and environmentally responsible design. At the heart of every CSD system lies a premium quality airend featuring KAESER’s SIGMA PROFILE rotors. Flowoptimised for impressive performance, these advanced rotors help KAESER
CSD systems set the highest standards for efficiency. Maximum performance and efficiency are further delivered thanks to the inclusion of a super-premium efficiency IE4 class motor as standard. KAESER is currently the only compressed air systems provider to equip its compressors with super premium efficiency IE4 class motors. The integrated refrigeration dryer provides high-efficiency performance thanks to its energy saving control. The dryer is therefore active only when compressed air actually needs to be dried: this approach consequently achieves the required compressed air quality with maximum efficiency. A KAESER centrifugal separator fitted with an electronic ECO-DRAIN condensate drain installed upstream from the refrigeration dryer ensures that condensate is reliably pre-separated and drained, even when ambient temperatures and humidity are high. Moreover, the refrigeration dryers are equipped with R-513A refrigerant, which
has a very low GWP (Global Warming Potential) value. This means that these efficient dryers will be future-proof for their entire life cycle. The compressors were complimented with a complete air treatment package. This included KAESER filters - the key component to produce compressed air to all purity classes as per ISO 8573-1. The KAESER Filter range uses modern deep-pleated filter media to remove particles and aerosols. A highly effective carbon fibre mat traps oil vapours. The outstanding performance data of KAESER Filters has been calculated according to ISO 12500 and validated by Lloyd's Register - the independent certification organisation. KAESER Filter products feature generously dimensioned housings and filter surfaces, innovative flow dynamics and high-performance filter media. They feature up to 50 percent lower pressure loss than other available filters – a value which remains virtually constant over the entire service life of the filter element.
This means lower costs and CO2 emissions as well as reduced load on upstream compressors. A reliable and efficient solution George Fink concluded: ‘We’ve found the KAESER compressed air equipment to be very reliable and efficient in delivering absolutely clean and dry compressed air to these hyperbaric units. In fact many of our installations in hospitals throughout Australia operate with a KAESER compressed air system some for as long now as 15 years - they just keep working!’ Royal Hobart Hospital hyperbaric facility medical co-director, Clinical Professor David Smart stated: ‘We are delighted with our state-of-the-art hyperbaric facility which has been manufactured by Fink. Fink recommended the KAESER compressed air system due to their proven track record. We have been operational now for 3 months and the system is going well. Our staff are looking forward to welcoming more patients with our greater treatment capacity and opening our facility for research and teaching.’

To hire or not to hire? That is the question!
In this blog post we look at the benefits of air compressor hire and when this might be the right solution, as well as highlighting new Government initiatives available when investing in capital equipment.
Whether your business has seen a sudden surge in production in the current economic climate, or you now find yourself considering putting capital investment plans on hold - one thing will undoubtedly have not changed - that being your requirement for a reliable supply of high quality compressed air! As the fourth utility to industry, compressed air will be a life blood of your business. Thankfully, there are a number of options you can take advantage of to ensure your compressed air supply needs are met. When would air compressor hire be the right option? There are many reasons why you might consider hiring - or renting - an air compressor;
Speed when you need a short-term or temporary solution
Whether you need additional compressed air to meet an unexpected surge in production without additional investment cost, or your production has more permanently increased and you are working on designing a new compressed air system - hiring an air compressor provides a speedy short-term or temporary solution to bridge the gap.
Flexibility
Here again when you need a short-term 8 | KAESER report
air compressor solution hiring offers great flexibility. And with some air compressor suppliers like KAESER, short-term hire is possible with a minimum rental period of just one day!
Minimise downtime
Let’s say your existing compressor fails and you don’t already have a back-up. Depending on the diagnosis, hiring a compressor may present a quick fix replacement that would cause minimal disruption and downtime to your operations while your existing air compressor is repaired.
Cost savings
When you only need the additional compressed air for a set period of time, it is very likely that there will be cost savings to hiring rather than buying an air compressor to meet these requirements.
Inclusions
When you choose to hire an air compressor the maintenance and service are typically part of the hire agreement. Depending on how long you are hiring the compressor for minimal if no maintenance work may be required. However, in selecting to hire the compressor, in most cases you will therefore have the peace of mind that maintenance and service are included. This means - no need to spend time
getting service quotes, and no need to worry about when service work is due the supplier takes care of it all. When would investing be the right choice? There will of course be numerous situations where investing in new compressed air equipment makes sense. Some examples may be when you are upgrading an ageing compressed air system, to meeting the compressed air requirements of building a new production hall. New financial initiatives If investing is the right option for you it’s worth knowing that the Australian Government recently introduced some new financial initiatives to support Australian businesses through the Coronavirus situation.
Instant Asset Write-Off
At time of writing the Australian Government has extended the increased Instant Asset Write-Off ‘from $30,000 to $150,000 and expanded access to include businesses with aggregated annual turnover of less than $500 million (up from $50 million).'

accelerating depreciation deductions. This applies to eligible assets acquired from 12 March 2020 and first used or installed by 30 June 2021. Businesses with a turnover of less than $500 million will be able to deduct 50 per cent of the cost of an eligible asset on installation, with existing depreciation rules applying to the balance of the asset cost.’ In our references below you will find links where you can access more information about both of these initiatives. Conclusion Whether you’re thinking about hiring or buying, the first step in deciding may well be to consult a compressed air provider that has the expertise and knowledge to assist you in weighing up your options.

clamps and hand tools - compressed air is an essential utility required within many stages of the joinery building process at Fisher West Auckland. Buckingham said; ‘We had heard really good things about the KAESER product including how reliable they are. We rely on good products to make good products ourselves, so when it came time to replace our ageing compressed air system we wanted to talk to KAESER.’ KAESER recommended and subsequently installed an SXC 8 all-in-one compressed
air supply system to reliably and efficiently meet Fisher West’s compressed air demand. An all-in-one solution The turnkey and compact SXC series from KAESER Compressors is a complete compressed air supply system that incorporates a rotary screw compressor, refrigeration dryer and air receiver all within one space-saving compact package. At the heart of each rotary screw compressor lies the KAESER rotary screw compressor block featuring SIGMA PROFILE rotors. These have been specially developed by KAESER and require around 10 to 20 percent less energy than conventional rotors with the same air delivery capacity. This contributes significantly to the impressive
overall efficiency of these systems. The inclusion of an advanced SIGMA CONTROL 2 compressor controller further ensures reliable and efficient operation with maximum availability. With its efficient start-stop control, the SIGMA CONTROL 2 delivers optimised compressed air system performance at all times. Moreover, this advanced controller constantly monitors the entire SXC package. With a maximum sound level of 69 dB(A), the SXC integrated packages are exceptionally quiet making them ideal at point of use. In addition, the SXC has been designed for maximum ease of maintenance. All maintenance and service points are easily accessible by simply lifting away the enclosure.
Now up and running, Buckingham concluded: 'We have been really impressed with the KAESER compressor - it’s reliable, it’s compact and it’s quiet in operation. Our health and safety system and moreover the safety of our staff is one of our top priorities. By shifting from a piston to a screw compressor, we have been able to reduce the noise considerably and make our work environment so much better to work in. We’re also really happy with the programming features of the KAESER compressor. We don’t have to worry about turning it on and off - it’s all set up to our requirements. And, the support and customer service from KAESER from start to finish has been second to none.’
'We’re really happy with the programming features. We don’t have to worry about turning it on and off - it’s all set up to our requirements.'

How to develop an energy efficient compressed air system [whitepaper excerpt)
Minor measures
Major b
A great deal can often be achieved with a compressed air supply. Here we shar pharmaceutical industry’ whitepaper ser renovating an existing or planning a new
Energy costs account for the lion’s share of total compressed air supply costs. For an optimised compressed air supply produced by a new station with aircooled compressors, the cost profile is divided as follows: commissioning and training of maintenance staff account for around just one percent of total costs; the same goes for condensate treatment. Installation expenses and the cost of controllers and process control systems come in at seven, and procurement of treatment equipment at five, with that of compressor equipment at around 13 percent. Maintenance of compressors accounts for three, whilst treatment system maintenance comes in at one percent. The largest cost block by a huge margin derives from energy expenses to supply compressors and treatment equipment, however, at 69 percent (Image 1). This striking figure makes clear how energy performance is one of the most important indices for evaluating compressors. Years ago as part of its “Efficient Compressed Air” campaign (2000-2004) the Frauenhofer Institute established certain benchmarks that remain relevant today: for example, at a pressure of 6.5 bar (7.5 bar absolute), the specific power requirements should be between 5.5 12 | KAESER report
and 7 kW m³/min. Energy consumption values above 7 kW m³/min are not cost effective, whilst those under 3.3 kW -m³/min are technically impossible to achieve with current technology. Energy efficiency considerations therefore play a central role in system planning, which always begins with a thorough analysis of the current air demand situation – for both new systems as well as renovations of existing ones. The audit can be carried out either by an external expert or the operator can take on the task internally. Leading providers in the compressed air sector additionally offer services in which an expert examines the system in detail using modern measurement and planning technology, then makes optimisation recommendations. To facilitate the planning of new compressed air stations, the future operator is given a specialised planning questionnaire. This makes it possible to calculate the expected compressed air demand and the equipment necessary to achieve it – with the help of an experienced compressed air consultant. The questions cover all the key aspects to ensure a cost-effective and environmentally friendly compressed air supply. In contrast to new projects, expansion
proposals offer sufficient existing points of reference for determining a layout in accordance with demand. The expert shares measurement methods and tools with the user that make it possible to precisely determine the air demand in relevant parts of the company at various times. In this regard, it’s important to determine not just average values, but maximum and minimal values as well. It’s also recommended with existing stations to occasionally determine – using computer-assisted analysis systems – whether the load on the compressors is (still) appropriate, whether the customer’s air demand has changed or whether the leakage rate remains within tolerances. Analysis programs should also be employed whenever old compressors are replaced with new ones. This offers the opportunity to replace potentially incorrect performance values with correct ones, improve compressor operating performance (especially in the partial-load range) and to plan for an optimised master controller. An expert should also be consulted whenever usage conditions change. After all, in many cases significant cost savings can be achieved simply by adapting the treatment equipment or pressures in the system.

Large volumes of oil-free compressed air: when it's needed, where it's needed
The portable powerhouse With flow rates up to 45.8 m3/min, when it comes to producing large volumes of oil-free portable compressed air, the MOBILAIR M500-2 dry-running diesel driven portable screw compressor presents an exceptionally powerful and flexible solution. From mining, construction and refineries sites to the manufacture and production of food, beverages, chemicals and pharmaceuticals to name only a few - a diverse range of industries and applications require large volumes of oil free - and often portable - compressed air. The MOBILAIR M500-2 from KAESER Compressors is the ideal solution. Expertly engineered for maximum versatility and fuel efficiency, the innovative M500-2 combines all the advantages of a two-stage dry-running oil-free rotary screw compressor with those of a mobile unit, and is always ready when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needed and wherever itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
needed. At the heart of the M5002 is a proven two-stage dry running rotary screw compressor. Thanks to an innovative coating that withstands temperatures up to 300oC, the machines sandblasted, phosphate-treated rotors show no measurable signs of wear, even after years of operation. This translates into maximum long-term efficiency and no increase in fuel consumption over the operating life of the machine. A generously sized fuel tank further ensures the M500-2 can run for two entire sequential shifts without the need to refuel and can even run continuously when connected to an optional external fuel tank. The reliable on-board Caterpillar C18 diesel engine is rated at 447.5 kW. The M500-2 includes an integrated
14 | KAESER report
SIGMA CONTROL MOBILE controller which automatically adjusts the motor speed to the exact pressure set-point between 4 and 10.3 bar. Compressed air discharge temperature can also be selected via the controller. This portable compressor also comes as standard with a spark arrestor and motor shut off valve for installation in refineries and is mounted on a supporting chassis with parking brake so that it can be quickly and safely positioned anywhere. It also features crane and lashing eyes, as well as forklift pockets. This giant unit, which weighs in at just less than twelve tonnes, can therefore be precisely placed exactly where needed; the parking brake on the chassis also ensures that it stays put. The M500-2 delivers a dependable supply of quality compressed air from 4 to 10.3 bar. Maximum free air delivery varies from 38 m3/min (10.3 bar) to 45.8 m3/min (6.9 bar).
Meeting
The new initiatives launched in light of COVID-19
new challenges
As social distancing becomes the new norm for the foreseeable, KAESER has launched two new initiatives - both developed to ensure that compressed air users can continue to operate reliable and efficient compressed air systems.
Contactless Service Now more than ever businesses need to be able to rely on their equipment, and certainly when it comes to the compressed air system, continuing to follow the OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) recommended maintenance schedule will have a large impact on its ongoing reliability. Compressed air is often considered the fourth utility to industry and so maintaining a compressed air system will be essential to many businesses. This means allowing compressed air Service Technicians onsite to perform maintenance work. KAESER implemented a number of preventive measures for their Service Technicians in the field some months ago. This includes: using hand sanitiser before entering a customerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s site, wearing protective gloves to service equipment, where required wearing a face mask, and disinfecting all equipment before and after servicing. For added peace of mind KAESER has now also introduced Contactless Service which further limits the physical contact between the end user and the Service Technician. When a customer opts for Contactless Service with KAESER, the Service Technician phones the customer when they get to site to announce
their arrival and discuss the service requirements. After taking a number of preventive measures before entering the site, the Service Technician then proceeds to service the compressed air equipment. After completing the service work and taking photos of the equipment serviced including used parts, the Service Technician then phones the customer before leaving site to explain all work completed. All paperwork is then sent to the customer by email. Compressed Air Assessment 4.0 There is no doubt that in the current climate all businesses are looking for ways to minimise their outgoings. Electricity remains a significant cost to industry, and electrical power on a v e r a g e accounts for up to 90 percent of the total costs for compressed air production. Finding ways to optimise the energy efficiency of a compressed air system could therefore
go a long way in reducing a businesses electricity bills. With that in mind and taking into account the fact that many businesses are now limiting access to their sites, KAESER has developed the Compressed Air Assessment 4.0. With the Compressed Air Assessment 4.0, KAESER has taken its air assessment online. Rather than a KAESER representative conducting a walkthrough and assessment of a compressed air system in person this is now completed remotely. All the end user needs to do is supply a video of their compressed air system. KAESER then follows up with a brief phone call to gather some additional information. The compressed air experts at KAESER then analyse all information supplied and generate a report of findings and recommendations. Finally, KAESER shares these findings and recommendations with the end user via a conference call as well as guidance on suggested next steps.
