Ultrasound World VI (2010)

Ultrasound World VI Program Abstracts

Abstract:  Approximately 25% in the compressed air is wasted by leakage. Repairing leaks is the easiest and most beneficial way to realize dramatic compressed air savings. To detect the overall leakage in a factory and to quantify the amount of savings, mass flow meters provide a great tool. Combined with Ultrasonic leak detectors, they form the perfect team for a continuous leakage management program around the factory.

Flow meters show when it leaks and how much can be saved. Leak detectors help you find them under any circumstance.

One example is Ingersoll Rand, who has conducted a large audit in Italy last year, which revealed over 350,000 Euro in savings, including 100,000 of savings by repairing leaks.

In this presentation we show how you can combine Ultrasound leakage detectors and mass flow meters to quantify savings potential and find leaks around the plant.
