Acoustic Leak Detection Monitoring

The Role of Acoustic Monitoring in Leak Detection

Acoustic monitoring leverages the unique sound signatures generated by leaks in compressed air, gas systems, and other industrial assets. These sounds, often inaudible to the human ear, can be captured and analyzed in real time to pinpoint their exact location and severity.

Why Acoustic Monitoring?

  • Proactive Maintenance: Detect leaks before they escalate into costly repairs or safety hazards.
  • Energy Savings: Air leaks alone can account for up to 50% of energy waste in industrial systems.
  • Enhanced Safety: Minimize risks associated with undetected leaks in high-pressure systems.

Applications of Acoustic Leak Detection

1.

Compressed Air & Gas Systems

1. Compressed Air & Gas Systems

30% to 50% of compressed air in industrial systems is wasted due to undetected leaks. Detecting and fixing leaks can save up to €25,000 annually in energy costs for a typical manufacturing plant. A single 3 mm hole in a compressed air system can cost over €3,000 per year in lost energy.

2.

High-Voltage Electrical Equipment

2. High-Voltage Electrical Equipment

85% of high-voltage equipment failures are linked to partial discharges. Early detection of partial discharges can extend equipment lifespan by up to 40%. Preventing critical electrical failures can save companies €100,000+ in repair costs and downtime per incident.

3.

Industrial Asset Monitoring

3. Industrial Asset Monitoring

Up to 70% of machinery breakdowns are preceded by abnormal acoustic signatures. Acoustic monitoring reduces unplanned downtime by 30% to 50%, improving overall plant availability. Companies using predictive maintenance save an average of 12% on repair costs and experience 9% less downtime.

Key Benefits of Acoustic Monitoring

  • Real-Time Results: Instantly detect and visualize leaks or anomalies.
  • Wide Frequency Range: Capture both sonic and ultrasonic signals for comprehensive analysis.
  • Cost Efficiency: Reduce energy costs and extend equipment life.
  • Ease of Use: Intuitive technology that doesn’t require extensive training.
