Compressed air systems

Leaks of compressed air are the most commonand major cause of inefficiency, typicallyaccounting for about 70 percent of the total wastage. Energylosses in a poorly maintained air system arise from the additional energyneeded to overcome equipment inefficiencies since the air may not bedelivered at the correct pressure.Long-term cost of compressed air generation is typically 75 percent electricity, 15 percent capital and 10 percent maintenance. Simple, cost-effective measurescan save 30 percent of generating electric power costs. Consequently, the effortto make compressed air system energy efficient is highly profitable.The work should include a thorough audit of the compressed air system.The following table shows the amount of airleakage and monthly cost for air leaks of different sizes.

Our group can serve the following activities:

1. Detecting and eliminating leaks.
2. Maintain air filters.
3. Generate compressed air at the lowest pressure suitable for the task.
4. Implement regular maintenance, inspection and preventive maintenanceprograms of the system as well as of the control and monitoring equipment.
