Air leaks are a concern for anyone operating a compressed air system. The average plant with no formal leak management program will have air leaks that waste up to 30 percent of the total air capacity.

Leaks will cause compressors to run at full load for longer periods of time. The compressors will not only use more energy but, may also need additional maintenance due to the increased loads.

Leaks can give the false impression that additional compressors are required to meet the demand for compressed air.

Common Leak Points
  • Quick connection fittings have o-rings to seal the hose connections. A damaged or missing o-ring will cause the connection to leak.
  • FRL's (filter, regulator & lubricator)
  • The welds found on pipe joints and pipe flanges can leak due to vibrations, age or improper welding.
  • Float or mechanical type condensate drains are also a source of air leaks.
  • Pipe thread connections, air tools and many more sources can be the cause of air leaks.

Description N/A What produces ultrasound in a leak? When a gas passes through a restricted orifice under pressure, it is going from a pressurized laminar flow to low pressure turbulent flow. The turbulence generates a broad spectrum of sound. There are ultrasonic components in the sound and since the ultrasound will be the loudest by the leak site, the detection of these signals is usually quite simpe.Commercial Benefits
  • Ultrasonic leak detection to save money
  • SMT/solid state hybrid heterodyne receiver
  • Supplied in case, complete with headset and rubber focussing probes
  • Production does not need to be disturbed when the LOCATOR is being used
  • Fully automatic - no maintenance
Technical Advantages
  • Leaks will be detected from a distance (up to 33 feet)
  • Highly effective in locating leaks and incredibly simple to apply
  • Very little time is required to locate leaks throughout a factory
Construction: Hand  held ABS pistol type ultrasonic processor, stainless steel sensor enclosures

Circuitry: SMT/Solid state hybrid heterodyne receiver
Frequency response: 20-100 kHz (centered at 28-42 kHz)
Indicator: 10 segment leak indication LED bar
Sensitivity selection: 8 sensitive positions
Power: 9 volt alkaline battery
Low battery indicator: LED
Headset:
  • Noise isolating type: double headset wired monophonic
  • Impedance 16 ohms
  • Over 23db noise attenuation
  • Meets or exceed ANSI specifications and OSHA standards
Transmitter: Warble tone transmission
Response time: 300 mille seconds
Ambient operating temp: 0 -50 degrees C (32-120 degrees F)
Relative humidity: 10 - 95 % 		N/A A typical compressed air system will have air loss through pipe work connections, leaking float type drains etc. At the end of the daily working shift the Air-Saver will shut the air tank off from the rest of the system.

The content of compressed air within the air tank will be saved rather than lost through pipe work leakages.

The Air-Saver is installed on the air outlet of the air tank. The Air-Saver will automatically OPEN just prior to the working shift begins and CLOSES just after the working shift is over.

Commercial Benefits
  • Microprocessor controlled (7 day program feature - multiple cycles possible each day)
  • Fully automatic - no maintenance
  • External push button controls (disassembly not necessary)
  • Easy to program
  • LCD displaying the program cycle and the current time
  • Small compact design
  • Each individual day can be programmed according to specific working day shift requirements
Technical Advantages
  • Orifice 1"
  • FPM seals
  • Stainless steel ball, valve is nickel plated brass
  • Slow ball valve rotation 90 degrees in 70 seconds (designed to avoid water-hammer when Opening or Closing)
Supply voltage: 115V or 240 VAC/DC 50/60Hz
Power consumption: 7W during cycle rotation
Opening / Closing duration: 30 sec. / 90º
Valve: Nickel plated brass with stainless steel ball
Connection: 1" NPT full port
Pressure range: 0 - 230 psi
