Compressed Air Leak Audit
A Compressed Air Leak Audit identifies and quantifies leaks in your system, helping you recover lost energy, improve efficiency, and extend equipment lifespan. By detecting and tagging leaks, we provide actionable insights to reduce waste, lower costs, and enhance system reliability. eaks exists in joints, flanges, welds upto end use instrumentations.
Key Focus Areas
- Leak Detection & Quantification - Identifying leaks using ultrasonic detectors and estimating air loss.
- Tagging & Classification - Categorizing leaks based on severity and impact, with critical leaks marked for immediate repair.
- Pressure Drop Analysis - Evaluating pressure variations across the system to identify restrictions and inefficiencies.
- Flow & Energy Consumption Analysis - Measuring air usage to detect excessive losses.
- Air Demand & End-Use Assessment - Identifying unnecessary compressed air consumption.

A well-maintained compressed air system (facility engaged in regular leak audit with post repairs) will have leaks less than 5-10%. But in a poorly managed facility, the leaks account upto 35%.
80% of the leak spots in the system is inaudible. Conversely the largest leak repairs yields huge reduction in compressed air leakage quantity.

We offer Ultrasonic Leak Detection Services to accurately identify leaks in compressed air systems, enhancing efficiency and reducing energy losses. Our expertise extends across various industries, from small manufacturing units and garment factories to large-scale cement plants.
Gas leak detection includes gases like :
- Argon
- Hydrogen
- Oxygen
- Nitrogen
Note: Our Leak Detection extends in identifying leaks in oxygen, argon and nitrogen lines as well.
