Detect and Prevent Air Leaks
Air leakage in a compressed air system will slow down production and increase expenses. Those that underestimate the problem are wasting money and time. Many times, people are unaware of the problem because they do not want to spend the money to detect and eliminate potential issues. Short-term investments in machine repair and maintenance will extend the life of a system and lower the total cost of operation throughout the system's lifespan. Regardless of the size of the plant or system, money must be found in the budget to maintain machines throughout the year adequately. Budgeting will not only save money and increase production, but it will also improve the overall safety of employees.
A standard issue that is found when using compressed air systems is air leaks. Air leaks will have depleted from air reservoirs, and then the compressors must be inflated again. This wastes time, energy, and money. There are more than a few things users can do to prevent and fix this problem. This includes:
- Installing pneumatic control devices, like pneumatic valves or pneumatic timers
- Have employees and professionals monitor the system regularly. If there is any problem, it must be repaired immediately
- Only let trained professionals use the system
- Add leak detectors to system
