Energy Losses

Common Compressed Air Wastage Areas

Automobile manufacturing facilities can experience energy losses through leaks, excessive pressure, inefficient controls and unnecessary air demand.

Air Leakage

Leaks in piping, fittings, hoses and pneumatic equipment can continuously increase compressor demand.

Excessive Pressure

Higher-than-required pressure can increase energy consumption throughout the compressed air system.

Open Blow-Off

Uncontrolled air used for cleaning and drying can create unnecessary compressed air demand.

Tool & Machine Leaks

Pneumatic tools, machines and connections can develop leaks during continuous production.

Pressure Drop

Restrictions, undersized piping and poor distribution layouts can create pressure losses.

Idle Equipment

Production equipment can continue consuming air during idle periods or reduced production.

Inefficient Controls

Poor compressor sequencing and control settings can result in inefficient system operation.

Artificial Demand

Excessive pressure and inappropriate end-use applications can increase overall air consumption.

Where Energy Is Often Lost

A detailed compressed air assessment can identify avoidable energy losses throughout automobile production and assembly operations.
