2. Reduce air consumption
◆ Leakage : problem
When factory operations are stopped, the remaining flow is leakage, which of
course also occurs during factory operations.
Making the amount of leakage visible encourages detection and repair of leaks.
Use of a leak detector is also effective.
Leakage does not contribute to production activity at all, and continues 365
days a year irrespective of air consumption, as long as pressure is supplied.
The reasons of large over looked leakage:
•Air pressure is so high (0.6 to 0.7 MPa)

Leakage
•Possible leak points are in various locations
•Even if a leak flow is detected, the leak point can be difficult to find.

3. Air control by demand
◆ Pressure : Stable and minimize the supply pressure
By applying the air use point pressure control, it is possible to improve the energy
consumption at Factory.
To regulate and minimize the supply pressure sent to branch pipe while keeping
the pressure needed in use point.
Both leakage air and blow air could be decreased by regulate and minimized
supply pressure.

3-1. Use point Pressure Control: Case1
By applying the air use point pressure control, it is possible to improve the energy consumption both at Factory
A and B.
＜Before＞

factory B is less
than factory A,
but air is supplied

3-2. Use point Pressure Control : Case2
In case that the air pipes are connected between factories, air supply pressure reducing
control can not be applied. However, by using the use point pressure value into the
air/energy saving control system, it is possible to reduce the load of compressors by
lowering the header pressure.
If transmitters are installed near the end of air pipes (before the air consumption device),
the minimum required pressure can be known by monitoring transmitters.
When the air consumption is low, around 3% of energy-saving is possible by

changing the header pressure value when the load is low.
Air/energy saving Normal load：840kpa（⊿P=50KPA）

control system Low load：810kpa（⊿P=20KPA）

3-3. Use point Pressure Control : Case3
If the compressor has no inverter and there is significant pressure fluctuation, it is
possible to restrain the fluctuation and lower the setting pressure by applying pressure
reducing control.
If several pressure transmitters are installed, the lowest pressure shall be used as the
value of pressure reducing control.
Note) A pressure transmitter can be installed near the control valve, however, it is better several transmitters to be
installed at the nearest point from the air consumption device. By using this pressure value in control, the load of
compressors may be reduced.
