Air leaks

As we know, a known and fairly easy to identify loss of electrical energy comes from air leaks. What is less said is that without repair interventions, they progress every year. This is an observation made by around thirty of our customers. Measuring the volume of leaks with an energy monitoring solution (ours for example) makes it possible to quantify the loss in euros and to justify carrying out repair campaigns by the maintenance department equipped with cameras or subcontracting this task. And to go further, lowering the air network pressure setpoint by 0.5 bar means ensuring that compressors save 10 to 15% in energy. Lowering the general pressure may be impossible but sometimes this pressure is only necessary on a particular workshop. It may be interesting to compare the cost of adding a low-power compressor used in this workshop to lower the pressure at the factory level.
