Stop Leaking Profits: Using Acoustic Imaging to Find Hidden Compressed Air Waste

Studies consistently show that **20% to 30% of all generated compressed air is wasted** through leaks in distribution systems. This invisible energy loss forces compressors to run longer and harder, directly translating into thousands of dollars in wasted electricity and premature equipment wear. Our solution eliminates this inefficiency.

I. Why Traditional Methods Fail

In busy industrial environments, finding air leaks using traditional methods (like soap solution or simple ultrasonic wands) is slow, unreliable, and often impractical due to background noise.

II. The Fluke ii915 Acoustic Imaging Advantage

We use the **Fluke ii915 Acoustic Imager** to transform the sound of a leak into a precise, visual image, solving the problem of high background noise and slow inspection times.

• See the Invisible: The ii915 uses a microphone array and proprietary **SoundSight™ Technology** to create a visual overlay (SoundMap™) that instantly pinpoints the leak’s exact source on a 7-inch screen.
• Instant ROI Quantification: The built-in **LeakQ™ Mode** quantifies the leak rate and automatically estimates the annual cost of wasted energy, allowing management to prioritize repairs based on clear financial metrics.
• Wide Detection Range: The tool can detect leaks from up to **120 meters**, allowing us to inspect large facilities quickly and safely from the ground level.

Conclusion

Eliminating compressed air leaks is one of the quickest and most guaranteed ways to reduce utility bills. Our acoustic imaging service provides the precision and financial data required to immediately stop leaking profits.
