Indian Air Compressor Manufacturer Reduces Energy Consumption by 15% After Upgrading to Shaanxi Lite Simo Motors
More Stable Operation and Lower Operating Costs
An air compressor manufacturer based in Pune, India, specializes in producing screw air compressors for factories and workshops. The motors previously used in their compressors drew excessive current during frequent starts, often triggering protection systems and preventing continuous air supply.
More critically, overall energy consumption was high, with monthly electricity costs accounting for a significant portion of operating expenses. The customer was looking for a replacement motor offering smooth starting, higher efficiency, and longer service life.
Based on their requirements, we recommended Wolong YE3 high-efficiency energy-saving motors, and fine-tuned the motor parameters according to the specific operating conditions of the air compressors. This ensured stable performance even under high-frequency start-stop operation.
After installation and commissioning, the customer experienced a significant improvement in air supply stability. Starting current impact was reduced by nearly 40%, and the entire system now runs much more smoothly.
Customer-Provided Performance Comparison Data

The customer commented:
“We used to worry about unexpected shutdowns during operation. Now those concerns are completely gone. The motor is quiet, energy-efficient, and highly reliable.”
The savings in electricity and maintenance costs were sufficient to recover the motor replacement investment within one year.
As a result, this air compressor manufacturer has officially adopted Shaanxi Lite Simo motors as a standard configuration. All export-oriented air compressor models are now equipped with Shaanxi Lite Simo high-efficiency energy-saving motors, significantly enhancing their competitiveness in international markets.
Proven Applications Across Multiple Industries
Shaanxi Lite Simo Motors have been successfully applied in industries such as air compressors, fans, cement, mining, and textiles. With advantages including high efficiency, long service life, and low maintenance requirements, Simo motors are becoming the preferred choice for an increasing number of equipment manufacturers and industrial users worldwide.
