Energy inefficiencies of industrial air compressors are mainly caused by leakages of air. In fact, studies indicate that as much as 25% to 35% of energy lost is from leaks, as a leak coming from a hole that is 3/8-inch in diameter in a system at 100 psig can cost up to $31,200 each and every year. If your factory relies on an industrial air compressor, being proactive and using an ultrasonic leak detector to look for leaks regularly can help improve overall efficiency and reduce operational costs.
