The ATS family of companies provides compressed air leak detection services for industrial and commercial companies. Compressed air leaks often go unnoticed because of their subtle and silent nature. As a result, undetected and unresolved leaks can account for up to a third of an air compressor’s output, leading to increases in costs and decreased efficiency. Fortunately, our air leak detection services help clients locate and resolve compressed air leaks before the situation worsens.
Compressed Air Leaks and Where They Occur
Numerous factors contribute to the presence of compressed air leaks, including the following:
- Everyday Wear and Tear
- Low-Quality Materials
- Improper Installation
- Poor Maintenance Practices
Compressed air leakage commonly occurs in the following areas:
- Couplings
- Drains
- Fittings
- Hoses
- Pipe Joints
- Tubes
Ultrasonic Compressed Air Leak Detection
Technicians use ultrasonic technology to quickly survey the sites of potential leaks, allowing them to recognize and repair leaks before the issue worsens. Ultrasonic instruments have sensitive microphones that detect the subtle sounds of air leaks while ignoring the louder background noises associated with industrial settings. This selective hearing makes ultrasonic air leak detection the ideal choice for operations concerned about potential leakage.
The Importance of Compressed Air Leak Detection Services
Regularly scheduled compressed air leak detection services can help operations prevent and repair air leakage. Modern techniques are non-invasive, allowing operations to run uninterrupted as we survey areas of concern and develop strategies to minimize future leaks. Our air leak detection services help our clients do the following:
- Avoid Future Gas Leaks
- Eliminate Potential Gas-Related Hazards
- Improve Efficiency
- Reduce Costs
