Airleak Surveys aid energy cost-cutting
Compressed air leaks amount to thousands of pounds in wasted energy every year - yet the cost to correct these leaks is typically fractional, with repairs paying for themselves within weeks
Using standards developed in line with Carbon Trust Guidelines, the Monition Airleak Surveys quickly identify leaks from all types of high pressure, compressed gas pipework and systems, without any disruption to production or process The Monition Airleak report details the precise location and severity of each leak, enabling the easy assessment and scheduling of repairs

The amount of energy loss can also be quantified to clearly demonstrate the amount of energy saving that will be achieved by rectifying each problem.
Considering that an 1/8th inch air leak in a compressed air pipe at 100psi can add approx GBP1,600 to the annual energy bills on any plant, the costs of identifying and rectifying leakages are easy to justify and can prove to be rapidly self-funding.
The systematic reduction of air leakages across a plant will reduce demands on services, reduce energy costs and maintain the operational performance of air controlled systems.
Monition Airleak Surveys are the fastest, most inexpensive method available to identify and target energy losses - as proven for our clients in the pharmaceutical, food processing, brewing and printing industries.
