A ¼ inch air leak during one year costs
as much as a small car

Eliminating air leaks

In older compressed air systems, up to 20% of the total compressed air consumption may be lost through leaks.

A ⅛ inch leak corresponds to nearly 42,000 kWh of wasted energy per year.

Yearly cost * of air leaks (@ 7 Bar):

  • ⅛ inch hole = 12 l/s = a bicycle
  • ¼ inch hole = 47 l/s = a small car
  • ⅜ inch hole = 108 l/s = a van

* Based on 8,760 operating hrs/yr at € 0.07 per kWh energy cost.
