How Much Do Air Leaks Cost?
An average plant without leak management can waste up to 30% of its total capacity. To compensate for this additional load your compressors will be running longer than is necessary with associated maintenance costs & unscheduled downtime. Electricity accounts for 76% of the lifetime costs of a compressor. Only half is used for operations, the remaining 50% or more of that electricity is wasted & lost to leaks. Noise pollution associated with leaking air is also a concern. Plus the wasted air can make it appear that you need additional compressor capacity when in fact you don't.
Barrow Maintenance Solutions Ltd can carry out a compressed air leakage survey which can be a simple walk through of the plant or can utilise an ultrasonic leak detection system. Having identified & labelled the source of the leaks, the necessary remedial works can be carried out by the plant's maintenance personnel or by undertaking an agreed schedule of repair and/or replacement.
The ultrasonic leak detector is available to purchase if preferred.
Barrow Maintenance Solutions Ltd supply other Compressed Air economy equipment such as Zero loss condensate drains, the Airsaver shut off system & the Transair piping system.
