Run the calculation
Estimate annual compressed-air energy cost for pneumatic vacuum generators from air consumption, generator count, duty cycle, hours, and energy price.
Calculation reference
What this tool checks.
The calculator treats ejector air consumption as a compressed-air demand and applies duty cycle, compressor specific power, and energy price.
Outputs
- Total air demand
- Active average flow
- Annual energy
- Annual cost
- Monthly cost
Engineering guide
Use the result with the right context.
Use your application data for a preliminary estimate, then check the result against the relevant technical or official guidance.
Enter the known application values, including Air consumption per generator, Generator count, Duty cycle.
Run the calculation using one consistent set of units and reference conditions.
Review Total air demand, Active average flow, Annual energy, then compare the result with the component datasheet and application margin.
Use absolute pressure for evacuation and leakage calculations, and pressure differential for holding-force calculations.
Verify surface condition, cup material, acceleration, leakage, load orientation, and loss-of-vacuum behavior on the machine.
