Sullivan-Palatek Air Compressor Controls
No matter how efficient you think your air compressor system is, a compressed air management system will help make it even better. Air compressor controllers, like Sullivan-Palatek MetaCenter, offer maximized efficiency by allowing you to connect and control all your compressor units in one smart, integrated system.
With MetaCenter air compressor controls, you can connect, control and monitor up to 24 air compressor units from any manufacturer with a single panel.
MetaCenter Compressed Air Management Systems
Sullivan-Palatek MetaCenter controllers are designed to meet the needs of a range of businesses of all sizes and types. All of the MetaCenter systems provide energy-saving simultaneous compressor control options for multiple compressors within your system.
These controllers vary based on the number of compressors they can control and their specific features and operating modes.
DCO
The MetaCenter DCO series of compressed air management systems allows users to connect multiple fixed-speed compressors for simultaneous control. DCO2 connects up to two compressors, DCO3 allows up to three, and DCO4 allows a maximum of four compressors.
These systems operate according to timer rotation, which means your system will automatically rotate between your compressors to distribute wear. They also offer a priority selection feature that allows you to designate a lead or backup compressor.
P4
MetaCenter P4 air compressor management controllers can connect and control up to four fixed-speed compressors simultaneously.
This system offers three different operating modes to help manage your compressor operation, including time rotation, equal running hours, and first-in, first-out (FIFO) modes.
The P4 controller system also features a real-time clock that allows users to set schedules for operation. Other key features include priority selection and system pre-fill.
SX
The MetaCenter SX controller allows users to connect up to 12 compressors simultaneously. This system can control fixed-speed, variable frequency or variable displacement compressors of any brand.
SX offers three operating modes — timer rotation, equal running hours and energy control. These modes allow you to easily and effectively control how each compressor is utilized.
This control system also has features like priority selection, system pre-fill and a built-in real-time clock for scheduling.
XC
The MetaCenter XC compressed air management system connects to up to 24 compressors at once. The compressors in the system can be fixed-speed, variable frequency or variable displacement units. With added pressure balancing and zone control features, this system can connect with compressors in multiple rooms.
The XC system can run your compressors in time rotation mode, equal running hours mode or energy control mode for optimized production and wear distribution.
