Depending on the application requirements, a lower pressure would also be sufficient. In this case, this was an operating pressure of 170 bar, which ensured an optimum effect with the still high basic dynamics of the injection unit. This is where Netstal comes in with the new system pressure reduction and optimizes energy efficiency. In automatic mode, the adaptive control system determines the optimum point at all times and adjusts the system pressure accordingly. The energy consumption for providing the system pressure is reduced to a sensible minimum while maintaining the same level of productivity. This saves electricity costs, improves economy and reduces the CO2 footprint of your production.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reduce energy consumption with the adaptive system pressure reduction from Netstal.
