With the introduction of the latest models to the ALTA-TEC series, Pilot Air is once more redefining the standards in respect to efficiency, reliability and energy savings.

The continuous investment in Research & Development has allowed the further improvement in the form of the new and highly advanced Login electronic controller to the acclaimed ALTA-TEC series, already a leading-edge product in the industrial market. This is enhanced with our direct transmission system and IE3 Premium Efficiency motors.

These new and innovative technologies, combined with the employment of our latest generation air-ends, has allowed us to build the most advanced, quiet, reliable and efficient compressor available.

The inverter, pre-installed in the compressor’s electrical panel, dynamically regulates the speed of the electric motor and therefore the speed of the air-end, continuously adjusting the delivered air flow to the system’s real time compressed air requirements. This also eliminates current surges thanks to the soft start-up and drastically reduces operating cycles avoiding unnecessary no-load operation, avoiding significant energy wastage and reducing energy costs.

When compared to the operation of a fixed speed compressor, an ALTA-TEC is able to achieve significant energy savings.
This represents a reduction of around 20% to the total life cycle costs during years of use.

For all companies, environmental sustainability is a most important objective and why a focus on the efficiency of all processes is critical. ALTA-TEC compressors provide a significant opportunity in this area.

Working and living sustainably means preserving our natural resources as much as possible: choosing an ALTA-TEC product, reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions therefore, represents an ecological and sensible choice.

The direct coupled transmission ensures maximum efficiency, quieter operation and less maintenance than similar belt driven designs.

Utilisation of new generation high efficiency motors, drive and inverter technology allowing you to cut energy costs.

The new ‘Login’ controller introduces new software capabilities to strengthen diagnostic functions, thereby guaranteeing excellent performance in all conditions. Login provides additional facilities including remote control and multi-compressor management.

All of K-MAX’s functions are entirely managed by the centralised Login electronic controller, which constantly monitors the compressors operation ensuring efficient and reliable operation of the machine in all conditions with customised functions to suit any application.

During an irregular event within the machine, Login reports the presence of such and incident by creating an alert for the user, allowing for prompt operator intervention.

The integrated connectivity with remote monitoring (optional), makes it possible to obtain complete information on the compressor status remotely.

Thanks to the “ISC” system it is possible to simultaneously connect up to 8 different compressors (fixed and/or variable speed combinations), with “master-slave” logic. The system can also be used with other compressors not equipped with Login by using the optional modules suitable for specific compressors.
