ASSET MANAGEMENT Best Practices for Ultrasonic Compressed Air Leak Detection ADRIAN MESSER, CMRP adrianm@uesystems.com Contrary to what some might think, compressed air is not free. In fact, for what it takes to produce it, the compressed air that is generated is often considered the most expensive utility in a typical manufacturing facility. To further add to the problem, the US Department of Energy notes that more than 50% of all compressed air systems have energy efficiency problems. Air Compressor experts have also estimated that as much as 30% of the compressed air generated is lost via leaks in the compressed air system. OFTEN, WHEN a compressed air system struggles to meet the current demands on the system, spare compressors are rented and used as back-ups, or time and effort is placed in installing an additional compressor to the existing system.
