The versatility of compressors from IDE-COMPRESSORS in the maritime world

Breathing air compressors for divers and fire departments, starting air compressors in shipping, nitrox/nitrogen generators, and other maritime-industrial applications.

The leisure market, the emergency services and the industrial world are constantly on the move and demand modern, reliable, state-of-the-art solutions that meet and exceed current and future requirements for safety, energy efficiency and the environment. The innovative compressors from IDE-COMPRESSORS meet all these requirements and more, and are therefore indispensable whether for leisure or professional use.

Starting air compressors for smooth starting procedures for large marine engines

The propulsion of ships requires enormous amounts of energy to move the huge masses across the oceans. IDE starting air compressors play a key role in this by generating the necessary compressed air to start the ship's engines. These compressors provide a constant and reliable source of air that ensures the smooth start-up of ship propulsion systems. Thanks to their robust design, reliable and advanced technology, IDE starting air compressors are the first choice for the maritime industry.

Breathing air compressors - safety on land, on board and under water

 The safety of people on board ships and underwater is of paramount importance. Breathing air compressors from IDE play an indispensable role in the supply of fire-fighting equipment on ships and offshore installations. They ensure that a reliable source of air is available in the event of a fire to supply firefighters with the necessary compressed air. These compressors are also used to supply divers, whether for leisure activities on cruise ships or for industrial or military diving operations. With their compressors and AIRSAVE-ULTIMATE, the world's best breathing air quality monitoring system, IDE breathing air compressors guarantee clean and safe breathing air at all times and in sufficient quantities.

The use of Nitrox, a mixture of normal ambient air with an increased oxygen content-EAN 32-36-42, has become increasingly important in diving.
IDE Nitrox generators are tailor-made solutions that either supply divers directly with Nitrox or enable the high-pressure compression of Nitrox in storage cylinders. This opens up completely different comfortable possibilities for divers and also makes diving safer.

Overall, the versatility of IDE compressors in maritime and industrial applications is impressive. They play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of people and equipment as well as the efficiency of operations. With their proven quality and state-of-the-art technology, IDE Compressors sets standards in the industry and helps keep ships sailing safely on the oceans and industrial plants running smoothly.

IDE-AIRSAVE ULTIMATE: A revolution in compressed air quality monitoring for maritime applications

The maritime industry is constantly on the lookout for innovative solutions that not only increase efficiency but also raise safety standards. In this regard, IDE Compressors has raised the bar for compressed air generation in maritime applications to a new level with its groundbreaking innovation, the IDE-AIRSAVE ULTIMATE. This groundbreaking technology not only promises improved performance, but also an environmentally friendly and cost-efficient solution.

A look at the IDE-AIRSAVE ULTIMATE technology

The IDE-AIRSAVE ULTIMATE is a breathing air quality monitoring system that is primarily used in breathing air applications. The first development stages were started by the founder and owner of IDE-COMPRESSORS after 10 divers died from CO poisoning on a diving ship in the Andaman Sea in 2007. Until then and for many years to come, test tubes were used to measure breathing air quality every quarter of a year. However, the result measured in this way could turn into highly contaminated values just 45 minutes later. Thanks to IDE-COMPRESSORS, which was the first company in the compressor industry to launch a usable online monitoring system in 2008 that even the world market leader tried to copy. Since then, such accidents and liability risks for the filling stations when using this system are history. Incidentally, DIN EN 12021:2014 and other international standards stipulate that it must be ensured that the limit values of the standard are complied with at all times when breathing air is delivered. However, this is only possible with a permanently online measuring system.
