Key Principles

The extensive automation characteristic of modern production methods in the pharmaceutical industry makes compressed air a vitally important energy carrier. Supply failure can result in expensive downtime whilst inefficiencies in production and distribution can mean unnecessarily high costs. As a whole, this series illuminates design and implementation principles for ensuring an efficient, reliable and cost effective compressed air supply – which is often possible without major effort. Part 1 provides an overview and introduction to topics covered in more detail in the following parts.
