Abstract
A compressed air system for a motor vehicle with an air supply system includes an electric drive motor, which can be controlled for variable speed, an air compressor coupled to be driven by the electric drive motor, an electric power supply for supplying electric power to the electric drive motor, at least one air reservoir connected with the air compressor to receive air from the air compressor, an air utilization system connected to the air reservoir to receive air from the air reservoir, and a controller to control the speed of the electric drive motor. The controller controls the electric drive motor to determine its speed depending upon at least one of the following signals: a signal representing the activation status of an accelerator pedal of the vehicle, a signal representing the speed of the vehicle, a signal representing the temperature of the power supply, a signal representing the temperature of the electric drive motor, a signal representing the wetness level of the air compressed by the air compressor, a signal representing the load of the air compressor, a signal representing the running time of the air compressor, or a signal representing the status of the electric power supply.
