Why CALMS makes sense

Transparency in compressed air systems matters

Compressed air is one of the most energy-intensive utilities in industrial production. 
At the same time, many systems lack continuous visibility into energy consumption, air quality, and system condition

CALMS Air Intelligence provides holistic compressed air analysis and monitoring across generation and treatment. Automated evaluations reveal cost drivers and create a solid foundation for targeted efficiency improvements and operational reliability. 

 Typical challenges in compressed air systems: 

  • Excessive energy consumption caused by inefficient operation
  • Undetected leakages leading to unnecessary costs
  • Fluctuating compressed air quality affecting processes and products
  • Insufficient data for maintenance and investment decisions 

 CALMS makes compressed air transparent – and optimization measurable. 

Two paths to compressed air optimization

Depending on your objectives and starting point, CALMS offers two proven approaches – from a fast system assessment to permanent compressed air monitoring. 

CALMS System Check – Compressed Air Energy Analysis

Temporary System Analysis

The CALMS System Check is the structured entry point into data-driven optimization of your compressed air system. 

Our approach
During a time-limited measurement campaign, our experts analyze energy consumption, operating behavior and compressed air quality. The result is a comprehensive audit of system performance with actionable insights.

What the system check delivers

  • Energy consumption and load profiles
  • Pressure and flow behavior
  • Indications of leakages and inefficiencies
  • Stability and quality of compressed air supply 

Your operational advantages

  • Clear and structured analysis report
  • Concrete energy-saving potential (kWh and costs)
  • Prioritized recommendations for action
  • Reliable basis for further optimization steps 

When is CALMS System Check right for you?

  • If you need fast transparency about the current performance of your compressed air system
CALMS System Optimization – Continuous transparency

Permanent System Monitoring

CALMS System Optimization enables continuous monitoring of compressed air systems and supports long-term energy efficiency and system reliability. 

Our approach
Based on defined objectives, your compressed air station is equipped with permanent measurement systems. CALMS continuously monitors key performance indicators and detects deviations early in operation.

What permanent monitoring delivers

  • Transparency on energy consumption, air quality and system condition
  • Early warnings in case of deviations
  • Traceable documentation for audits and management
  • Sustainable optimization instead of one-off improvements 

Your operational advantages

  • Stable processes and high operational reliability
  • Long-term reduction of energy costs
  • Fewer unplanned downtimes
  • Long-term planning and investment security 

When is CALMS Monitoring right for you? 

  • If you want to continuously monitor and optimize your compressed air station 

FAQ – CALMS Air Intelligence

What is CALMS Air Intelligence?

CALMS Air Intelligence is a solution for analyzing and monitoring compressed air systems. It provides transparency regarding energy consumption, compressed air quality and system condition – either as a temporary analysis or as permanent monitoring. 

What does compressed air monitoring mean?

Compressed air monitoring refers to the continuous measurement and evaluation of key operating data in a compressed air system. The goal is to detect deviations early, improve energy efficiency and ensure reliable operation. 

Which companies is CALMS suitable for?

CALMS is suitable for industrial companies that: 

  • face high compressed air energy costs
  • rely on stable compressed air supply
  • require data-based insights for optimization and investment decisions 
How complex is a CALMS System Check?

The CALMS System Check is time-limited and minimally invasive. All measurements are performed during normal operation without interfering with production. 

Does the measurement affect ongoing operation?

No. The measurement is designed to avoid any disruption to your ongoing processes. 

How quickly will I receive results?

After the measurement phase, you will receive a structured analysis report including clear findings and recommendations. 

Is CALMS a product or a consulting service?

CALMS is not a standard product, but a data-driven analysis and monitoring solution tailored to your specific application. 

Do I need to start with permanent monitoring right away?

No. Many customers start with a CALMS System Check and decide on CALMS System Optimization based on the results. 

Procedure and process

The typical CALMS project workflow

Define objectives and requirements together

Together with you, we review your system, document specific requirements and define objectives – whether you start with a temporary System Check or aim for permanent monitoring.

Develop an individual measurement and system concept

Based on your goals, we jointly define the relevant measurement points, parameters and the appropriate concept – for a time-limited analysis or a permanent monitoring solution.

Equipment installation and cloud configuration

All relevant equipment is installed, to allow for data collection and transmission as a menas for further interpretation.

Data acquisition during normal operation

Depending on the chosen approach, data acquisition is carried out as a temporary measurement or as continuous monitoring – aligned with your processes and without disruption.

Joint analysis and transparent evaluation

Collected data is clearly prepared and jointly analyzed, providing understandable key figures, results and context related to your objectives.

Derive measures and support optimization

Based on the analysis, we jointly develop concrete recommendations. The System Check provides a solid decision basis, while System Optimization supports continuous transparency and long-term performance improvement.
