Efficient, Pure and Simple Compressed Air - Who Cares? n It is expensive!!!! u 30% of Ford’s Electric Bill u 40% of Xerox’s Electric Bill n In the first year of operation, compressors consume more in power than their total capital cost. n The DOE estimates that plant air compressors consume 30 billion kWH in the US annually, of which 12 billion KWH are wasted. n Compressed air is a difficult utility to manage.

Efficient, Pure and Simple The Clean Dry Air Concept n Deliver Compressed Air not Air Compressors! u Install modular, pre-engineered compressed air stations at the customer’s facility. u Using specialized technicians to manage plants remotely, leveraging compressed air expertise over many plants.

The Clean Dry Air Concept

Efficient, Pure and Simple The Clean Dry Air Concept n Deliver a complete, engineered solution for obtaining and managing this costly utility. u Use a suite of products and services developed by CDA to focus on compressed air. u Drive down the total cost of compressed air while increasing the reliability.

Efficient, Pure and Simple The Internet Strategy

Efficient, Pure and Simple Need for Remote Process Management n Delivery of energy use and other high level data to customers. n Ability to aggregate energy and plant data across multiple facilities. n Delivery of operating data to Clean Dry Air personnel at various locations.

Efficient, Pure and Simple Requirements for Remote Process Management n Must be Internet-based for connection to multiple customer and CDA locations. n Need the fastest data delivery possible using the thinnest client. n Real-time data automatically updated. (No manual refresh required). n Customer data must be secure. n Use as much standard and open technology as possible.

Efficient, Pure and Simple Why PI ? Why ActiveView ? n Considered traditional relational databases. u Concern with database size/data retrieval time. n PI designed for analog data. Provided very efficient storage and fast retrieval. n ActiveView offered a solution that was tightly integrated with PI and easily adaptable for many different plant locations and configurations.
