Turn energy saving
into a calculable capital investment.

For the two most power-hungry areas on an electronics manufacturing floor — air conditioning and compressed air / static control — we offer energy-saving devices that are "maintenance-free, measurable and investment-recoverable." We help facility teams meet ESG and carbon-inventory goals without replacing main units or stopping the line.

01 — ELECTRICITY

Electricity prices keep rising

High-voltage electricity rates rise year after year, and facility A/C plus compressed air often make up 30–60% of a plant's power use. "Cutting the load" is more practical than "finding cheaper power."

02 — REGULATION

Carbon inventory is no longer optional

Listed-company supply chains increasingly require Scope 1／2 inventory submissions. Energy-saving improvement needs not slogans but capital investment that a third party can verify.

03 — INSTALLATION

Can't stop the line, can't swap the main unit

Production lines can't stop for energy savings, and new main units cost a fortune. We focus on physical energy-saving devices that retrofit onto existing equipment without affecting output.

A

PRODUCT · AIR CONDITIONING

α-HT A/C Energy Saver

REFRIGERANT MICRONIZER / PASSIVE

A passive device fitted to the liquid-refrigerant line of an A/C outdoor unit. It micronizes the refrigerant and lowers viscous resistance, significantly reducing compressor load and the overall power draw of the A/C system.

  • Roughly 25–32% A/C power savings (depending on environment)
  • The device itself uses no power, zero maintenance, no consumables
  • Compatible with R22／R32／R404／R407／R410A and similar refrigerants
  • Validated across some 300 companies and around 30,000 installed units

PRODUCT · STATIC ELIMINATION

G5 Power-Free Static Gun

AIR-DRIVEN IONIZING GUN · 0-WATT

The facility's existing compressed air drives a built-in turbine motor to generate power, so the gun body needs no electricity at all. Its ionized airflow removes static and dust at once — the only option at industrial static-control performance that consumes zero power.

  • No power supply, no high-voltage line, no battery
  • Ion balance and decay speed meet industrial standards
  • For explosion-proof / high-cleanliness / solvent-vapor environments
  • Lightweight grip designed for long one-handed operation

PRODUCT A  ／  ALPHA-HT REFRIGERANT MICRONIZER

α-HT　A/C Energy Saver

PATENT NO. 6300339
JIS B8607:2008

of A/C power use 90% all come from the compressor.
so this is where energy saving should start.

The outdoor-unit compressor drives the refrigerant through the piping. The thicker the refrigerant and the greater the resistance, the more work the compressor must do and the more power it draws.

α-HT's goal is not to reduce comfort (it doesn't raise the set temperature) but to directly "ease the compressor's load" — so the savings don't depend on anyone's behavior and can't be forgotten.

Where do the savings come from?

STEP 01
Refrigerant micronization
α-HT vigorously agitates the liquid refrigerant and refrigeration oil in the line, reducing droplet size.
STEP 02
Resistance drops
After micronization, viscous resistance drops and the refrigerant flows more smoothly, no longer "squeezing" through the piping.
STEP 03
Better heat exchange
The oil film on the pipe wall is thinned, raising heat transfer to the outside air and increasing heat-carrying capacity.
STEP 04
Reaches set temperature faster
Supply-air temperature drops faster, shortening the time for the room to reach its set point.
STEP 05
Compressor rests longer
The compressor rests sooner and total power draw falls — that's where the savings come from.
BEFORE  ／  Standard Piping
Viscous refrigerant keeps the compressor running at high load for long periods.
Large refrigerant droplets create flow resistance, forcing the compressor to output higher power to maintain circulation.
α-HT INSTALLED
AFTER  ／  With α-HT
The refrigerant is micronized and resistance falls, so the compressor can rest early.
Finely micronized refrigerant passes through the piping with almost no friction; heat-transfer efficiency rises and compressor run-time naturally shortens.

Faster ROI
Five site conditions

Not every A/C system sees the same effect. The more of the conditions below an environment matches, the shorter the payback — potentially under 2 years. We recommend starting with a simulation estimate.

  • CONDITION 01 Long operating hours Plants, machine rooms and process A/C that run 24 hours or operate more than 12 hours a day.
  • CONDITION 02 Cooling/heating capacity 8 HP or more The larger the compressor output, the higher the absolute savings (kWh／month) and the faster the payback.
  • CONDITION 03 Old units in service for years As aging degrades compressor efficiency, the improvement after retrofitting becomes even more pronounced.
  • CONDITION 04 High-load environments Environments with a large indoor/outdoor temperature gap that struggle to reach the set point (process heat sources, exposed rooftops, etc.).
  • CONDITION 05  ／  BONUS Longer piping runs Distributed indoor units and long-run piping systems have larger friction losses, so the relative benefit of adding α-HT is higher. The longer the piping, the more worthwhile it is.

Installation flow (one unit in half a day)

STEP 01
Recover refrigerant gas
Recover the refrigerant in the existing piping per proper procedure to prevent leakage.
STEP 02
Cut piping, install α-HT
Installed vertically on the liquid-refrigerant side so refrigerant passes top to bottom.
STEP 03
Braze the piping
Braze securely to prevent refrigerant leakage, then evacuate again.
STEP 04
Insulation
Wrap with insulation to prevent condensation and heat loss.
STEP 05
Completion / follow-up
A power logger is installed for 10–14 days before and after to compare savings.

PRODUCT B  ／  G5 AIR-DRIVEN IONIZING GUN

G5　Power-Free Static Gun

0W · NO BATTERY
AIR-DRIVEN TURBINE

PRODUCT B · STATIC ELIMINATION

Driven by the compressed air itself,
The whole gun 0 W zero power.

A standard ionizing air gun needs its own dedicated high-voltage power line, which is often prohibited in explosion-proof zones and around flammable solvents. The G5 integrates the ion generator and a built-in turbine motor inside the gun body — the facility's existing compressed air handles both "power generation" and "ion delivery," so the gun needs no external power at all.

※ Static-control performance meets industrial-floor standards and can replace powered ionizing guns in most applications.

No power cord, no battery, no charging — usable freely in explosion-proof / power-free zones.

POINT 02

Industry-grade decay speed

Ion balance and decay speed meet the standard requirements of industrial ESD control, replacing most powered models.
