i/ZUV series
Awarded as Excellent energy conservation machinery of the year 2005
By The Japan Machinery Federation's
Chairman Award
Our “water lubrication oil-free inverter control air compressor (i/ZUV series)” won the Japan Machinery Federation's chairman award at the year 2005 excellent energy conservation machinery awarding ceremony hosted by the Japan Machinery Federation.
We enthusiastically develop new technologies which contribute to efficient use of energy and, thus, help mitigate the global warming problem. Having this award as the encouragement to our activities, we are determined to continue our efforts to contribute to the preservation of the environment.

Energy conservation effect of the water lubrication oil-free inverter control air compressor
The energy conservation by air compressors contributes to the energy conservation of the total industry
Electricity consumption by air compressors in Japan, approximately 40 billion kWh/year
⇒ equivalent to approximately 5% of total electricity consumption in Japan
If the electricity consumption by air compressors is cut by 10%
⇒ Approximately 4 billion kWh/year can be reduced (equivalent to the total electricity consumption of Kochi Prefecture in a year)
↓
The water lubrication oil-free inverter control air compressor can reduce the electricity consumption to 37% of conventional air compressors!

* Operational conditions: Air discharged: 60%, electricity cost: 15 yen/kWh, operation hours: 8,000h/year
* CO2 reduction by energy conservation: In case of -14037A-R, 13.32kWh x 8,000 hours x 0.12 ÷ 1,000 ≒ 12 (tC/year)
* Woods absorb 6tC of CO2 a hectare in a year.
