This partnership brings together two Ohio-based companies with a strong commitment to gas compressor optimization and controls. Altronic, a Hoerbiger company, has a 60-year history of focusing on the design and manufacture of innovative and reliable ignition, instrumentation, and control solutions for mission-critical assets in the energy and industrial sectors. ACI Services provides custom-engineered solutions for reciprocating compressors, including advanced performance modeling, detailed hardware manufacturing, and premium service.

“Delivering the eRCM solution as a part of the DE/ACM-4000 system without the additional cost and complexity of additional control panel hardware offers unique value to our users,” said David Lepley, president of Altronic.

Chad Brahler, ACI’s president, said ACI and Altronic share the same vision that the integration of these two premium technologies will bring a new level of advanced monitoring and control to gas compressors across ranges of any asset size and any complexity.”

Altronic control panels equipped with the eRCM are set for delivery in the third quarter.
