JOHN GUEST SAYS: GUARD YOUR COMPRESSED AIR

摘要

In a generation where compressed air systems have advanced enormously and are used significantly by various factories, production of compressed air roughly accounts for 10 per cent of the total energy consumption in manufacturing plants and garages. In a scenario where compressed air systems contribute to a sizable energy spend, a poorly designed air supply network with leaks can cost fortunes for manufacturers. Indeed, as identified by the HSE, poorly maintained pipework with carbon build-ups can even result in explosions causing serious hazards.
