Leaks
are not only a safety hazard in an industrial compressed air system. They can
also cause your facility to waste a lot of energy and make you lose 20 to 30
percent of your compressor’s output. As a result, you could be spending more
money, especially when the problem persists. You might even need to buy new
compressors to replace faulty ones. Avoid these issues with air leakage testing. It can quickly identify problems so
you can address them immediately.
Testing
for gas and air leaks is crucial, as leaks can negatively impact productivity
and reduce the efficiency of your tools and equipment. They can decrease air
pressure, causing downtime when tools function inefficiently and reducing
equipment longevity. A leak can also increase the demand for air power beyond
what is required, making compressors work harder and cycle more frequently and
depleting the lifespan of the entire system. All these can be avoided through
routine inspection, maintenance, and air leakage testing.
Gas
and air leakage are also the reason for downtime-related losses and increased
maintenance expenses. The problem reduces the longevity of compressors while
requiring expensive and frequent repairs that can get in the way of your
productivity and profits.
How
is it done?
Gas
and air leakage testing are
conducted using an NL acoustic camera. It provides immediate analysis and an
informative report on any leakages in the system, so you can make better
operations and maintenance decisions.
Professionals
will thoroughly analyze the compressed air systems with an ultrasonic camera to
identify possible air leaks and then recommend solutions to fix the problems.
Their reports are technically justified to support your decision-making.
Be
sure to hire a competent and qualified team for air leakage testing. Reputable service providers have in-house instruments and can
produce instant reports to help your business remain compliant.
