Operating Principles
Features and Benefits
High Density Insulation
AirCell Modular outdoor compressor rooms are spray-foam insulated to ensure a consistent operating temperature year round. The dense foam also reduces noise emissions while minimizing heat loss during downtime. This type of robust insulation is odorless, non-deteriorating and bright in color.
Self-Regulated
Temperature
The AirCell Modular maintains a consistent internal temperature regardless of external weather conditions. The fully automatic temperature control system provides an optimum operating range for your equipment. A small electric heater maintains a minimum temperature setting.
Filtered
Air Intake
Intake air drawn through an oversized bank of pleated air filters which efficiently remove airborne contaminants, protecting the enclosed compressed air equipment from harmful dust and dirt. This process drastically reduces overall operating costs.
Secure Equipment Placement
Placing your compressed air equipment outside your plant and into an AirCell Modular reduces expensive maintenance and breakdown costs. Also, if you plan on moving, the AirCell more than pays for itself!Environmental Solutions
Noise Reduction:
Noise pollution in the workplace has been linked to stress, absenteeism, and lost production. The AirCell Modular is located externally, completely eliminating one of the main causes of plant noise pollution. Each AirCell is sound attenuated with high density spray-foam insulation and can be located outdoors, even in the most environmentally sensitive locations.
Eliminate water consumption:
Water cooling is normally a requirement for compressors which would overheat due to contaminated atmospheric conditions or high ambient temperatures. AirCell Modular Compressed Air Systems operate independently, completely unaffected by the harmful environments inherent in typical industrial facilities. The AirCell Modular maintains an ideal operating temperature regardless of plant conditions and consequently never requires water cooling.

Reduced waste:
The AirCell Modular maintains a clean internal environment, eliminating the need for the constant replacement of cabinet and intake filters. Further, the cleaner operating logic ensures that the compressed air system operates at peak efficiency, significantly reducing the maintenance and repair costs associated with indoor compressor systems.
Condensate separation:
The condensate is separated prior to entering the compressed air system and then carbon filtered to ensure its cleanliness. Trace oil is contained inside the AirCell for proper disposal, allowing the clean condensate to be safely discharged to a drain.

Savings with AirCell
Relocation
With the AirCell, relocation simply involves loading and delivery. There is no need to remove ducting, plumbing, electrical, and heavy equipment. The AirCell Modular is ready to ship as it sits and pays for itself within a single move.
Traditional move: $15,000
AirCell Relocation: $2,000
Compressor Cooler and Filter Maintenance
The AirCell Modular draws in fresh air from outside, ensuring that air/oil coolers and filters remain uncontaminated. This eliminates the necessity for constant cleaning and reduces the risk of expensive breakdowns. It also means your compressed air equipment operates in the best environment possible, extending its life and reducing maintenance.Compressor in plant: $2,406
Compressor in AirCell: $360
AirCell Modular vs Custom Compressor Room

Savings by switching from Watercooled
In many cases, factories are required to cool their compressors using water; a costly but sometimes necessary expense. The AirCell Modular makes it possible to cool plant compressors using air. As a result significant savings are quickly accumulated.
Water cooling cost: $18,9211
Air Cooling Cost: $2,100
Heat recovery savings: $13,402.80
