Challenge
The project objective was to provide a dependable source of compressed air for the technological installations of the Hydrogen Laboratory, supplying ongoing experimental research across active test rigs. A primary requirement involved maintaining strictly controlled ambient operating conditions for the compressor unit and integrating it into the facility central control and supervision network.
Solution
Proximo Aero delivered an industrial compressor integrated into a purpose-built containerized enclosure engineered to preserve required ambient operating parameters. The setup is fully tied into the laboratory control architecture, allowing operators to execute start/stop routines and oversee operating cycles directly from the main control room. Operators have continuous visibility into operating parameters and an integrated vision feed for visual equipment verification. Compressed air produced by the unit is routed into distribution pipelines supplying the Hydrogen Laboratory test stands during active research trials.
Scope of Work
Turnkey delivery, enclosure manufacturing, and facility system integration:
- Selection and delivery of an industrial compressor sized for the laboratory technological demand
- Design and fabrication of a custom containerized enclosure ensuring proper thermal and environmental conditions
- Integration of the compressor controls into the central supervision system for remote control room operations
- Implementation of a visual surveillance camera feed and real-time operational telemetry monitoring
- Interconnection of the unit with the facility technological compressed air distribution piping feeding active test benches
Outcome
The deployed installation secures a stable and reliable utility supply for test rigs operating within the Hydrogen Laboratory. Integration with the central control room enables complete remote dispatching and status monitoring, while real-time metrics and camera surveillance afford operators constant situational awareness. The containerized configuration delivers a compact, fully integrated solution that ensures safe, reliable equipment operation within the laboratory infrastructure.
