Plant Air Audit: What’s In It For Me?
A properly conducted audit of your compressed air system provides you with the only sure way to manage the often mysterious workings of your air system.
Benefits of a Compressed Air System AUDIT
- Reduced operating costs
- Improved manufacturing productivity
- Reduced capital spending
The problems associated with operating a modern compressed air system are fairly complex and often camouflaged to the untrained eye. At the same time, many companies have cut back the internal resources dedicated to defining and solving those problems. That’s where a professional Air Audit can help by addressing the total process of producing compressed air… not just the compressors. It’s about taking compressed air, looking at it as your fourth utility, and making compressed air as dependable as your electric, water and gas services.
Air Audits help plant operators optimize their systems and often result in turning off compressors! This may sound crazy, but it’s true. In the past you asked compressor manufacturers, like Ingersoll Rand, to build the best engineered, most reliable, energy-efficient air compressors in the industry. But in today’s global business climate, you need more than great equipment to survive and thrive. To drive operational excellence we must go beyond the components of an air system and find solutions to the operating issues every air consumer faces.
Your air system problems require total solutions. A professionally conducted Air Audit will help you define system problems, whether they are in demand, distribution or supply, allowing you to develop cost-efficient solutions that meet your return on investment goals.
