Our experience indicates that leaks in compressed air systems can comprise 15% to 50% of the total demand load. This results in excessive energy cost for operating your air systems. Reduce the cost of leaks with an ultrasonic leak audit.
Leak Audit Deliverables:
1. On-site leak detection with an ultrasonic leak detector. This type of leak detector eliminates background noise so that we can find leaks while production running.
2. Marking and tagging of leak locations.
3. Estimates of leak size in SCFM.
4. Summary sheet with all leak locations.
5. Estimate cost savings for the repair of all significant leaks.
This service is well worth the investment. At $0.05/kwh, a reduction of 240 SCFM in compressed air leaks will save the equivelent of a 50 HP air compressor. This will result in approximately:
$16,000/year in energy cost savings!
More savings can be added if a compressor can be shut down as a result of the leak audit. Vacuum system leaks can also be located and tagged.
