Managing Leaks (and everything else) in an Industrial Compressed Air System

Leaks and inappropriate uses of compressed air consume a significant quantity of electrical power, needlessly add to the cost of electrical power for the plant and contribute to carbon emissions. Identification and remediation of compressed air system leaks should be an ongoing focus in any production facility that uses compressed air.

Customer Story: EccoFab

One of our favorite stories demonstrating Sullair durability. Gerry Bauer bought his air compressor at a donut shop. Scrawled on a napkin before him – somewhere between a chocolate éclair and an apple fritter – was an agreement to purchase a Sullair LS12- 40LAC stationary compressor with the capacity to power the air grinders in his Rockford, Ill. factory. That was 1979. The compressor is still running today, showing no signs of slowing down.
