Griffin Air Systems specialises in optimising air compressor performance to meet PSSR regulation requirements and lower operation costs.

We provide complete data logging energy surveys and ultrasonic air leak detection audits for all air compressor systems. 

This state-of-the-art technology utilises high-frequency pulses to identify air compressor leaks. By swiftly detecting and repairing these leaks, we proactively address inefficiencies that compromise overall system functionality.

Inefficient air compressors have significantly higher operational costs. By identifying and rectifying faults, conducting necessary repairs, and implementing crucial system improvements, we improve the overall efficiency of your system for long-term savings. Our ultrasonic air leak detection services are crucial in reducing energy consumption and saving your business money. 

Choose Griffin for a top-tier compressed air leak detection that optimises system efficiency, lowers energy costs and ensures strict compliance with legislation and regulations.

Our Ultrasonic Air Leak Detection Service Explained

Ultrasonic leak detection involves using high-frequency energetic pulses to identify any leakages in the air compressor. If there is a leak, the waves will reflect back, creating a lower frequency sound that can be heard, and the source of the leak can then be detected and repaired. Many air compressors don’t run efficiently with leaks in the system. Griffin Air Systems Ltd will help you identify these areas and resolve any issues.

Reduce Your Air System’s Energy Consumption

Compressed air systems can be costly to a business, particularly when they aren’t working optimally. Ultrasonic leak detection can reduce the energy consumption of your air compressor by an average of 31%. Our air leak detection service will help to identify any faults in the system so we can carry out repairs and make necessary improvements, saving you money in the long run.

How Compressed Air Leak Detection Works

Our technicians use specialist sensors to detect the high-frequency sound waves generated by leaking air. These frequencies are typically beyond human hearing but can be picked up and translated into clear visual signals using our state-of-the-art air leak detection equipment.

Common Sources of Air Leaks We Identify

  • Pipe joints and fittings
  • Valves and couplings
  • Pneumatic tools and hose connections
  • Pressure regulators and actuators
  • Air dryers and filters

Ultrasonic Air Leak Detection FAQs

You can learn more about how our ultrasonic leak detector service can help you save energy and lower costs. If you’d like to learn about our other services, you can get in touch with a member of the Griffin team.

Will I need to replace my air compressor if a leak is detected?

No, replacing an entire system is unnecessary if a minor leak is detected. Using our ultrasonic leak detection equipment, we are able to pinpoint the exact location of a leak and repair that specific part of the air system. This will either involve installing new pipework or replacing an existing part with an appropriately branded compressor spare part.

Can you replace any damaged air compressor pipework?

Yes, we offer a pipework replacement service to install quality pipework so you can make the most out of your air compressor. Using ultrasonic leak detection, we are able to detect any leakages in existing pipework and resolve the issue by installing either our smooth bore alluminium or galvanised pipework.

Is ultrasonic leak detection guaranteed to save me money on energy costs?

Griffin can identify aspects of your existing compressed air system that could be costing you unnecessary money on your energy bill. If your current system is not working optimally, our expert team will be able to get it running more efficiently, saving you money in the long run.

How effective are ultrasonic leak detectors?

Ultrasonic leak detection equipment is highly accurate. Locating leaks is easier when the pressure is higher, but ultrasonic air leak detection can effectively identify pinhole leaks as low as 1 psi.

What advantages does air leak detection offer?

Air leak detection is a game-changer for industrial environments. Identifying and addressing leaks prevents unnecessary air wastage, ultimately reducing energy costs. Additionally, fixing air leaks optimises the system’s overall efficiency, extends the lifespan of equipment, and reduces the carbon footprint.
