Compressed air remains one of the most important utilities in industrial environments, but also one of the most underestimated. Companies often invest heavily in compressors without knowing how much air is wasted, how inefficiently systems are operating, or where energy losses occur. Air Rotory’s air auditing and monitoring services give businesses the clarity they need to run cleaner, safer, and more cost-efficient operations.
Air leaks, poor pressure control, moisture exposure, and inefficient compressor cycling can drain thousands of rands each year. Through detailed auditing and constant monitoring, Air Rotory exposes these hidden losses, improves system performance, and extends equipment lifespan, delivering real savings where it matters most.
Why Air Auditing Matters
A compressed air system is only as efficient as its weakest point. Many industrial systems operate at far higher pressures than necessary, run outdated equipment, or rely on guesswork for maintenance planning. An air audit gives you measurable insight into how your system truly performs.
Air Rotory’s auditing process identifies:
- Hidden air leaks that drain energy
- Incorrect pressure settings
- Unbalanced system demand
- Compressor inefficiencies
- Inadequate filtration and moisture control
- Maintenance issues affecting airflow consistency
Even a small leak of just 3 mm can cost a business thousands of rands per year in unnecessary energy consumption. Air Rotory pinpoints these inefficiencies and provides a clear corrective plan that improves performance and reduces operational costs.
How an Air Audit Works
Air Rotory uses industry-leading diagnostic equipment and advanced monitoring systems to evaluate the complete compressed air network. The auditing process includes:
Airflow and Pressure Analysis
Load profiles, pressure fluctuations, and compressor cycling patterns reveal how efficiently equipment handles demand.
System Mapping and Leak Identification
Ultrasonic leak detection accurately identifies leaks, long before they become audible or lead to equipment damage.
Demand-Side Review
Evaluating the end-use points ensures that air is being used correctly and that no equipment is over-consuming.
Energy Consumption Profiling
Measuring compressor power draw and usage patterns identifies unnecessary electrical costs.
The result is a detailed performance report with recommendations for optimisation, upgrades, and preventative actions.
Monitoring for Consistent Performance
Audits uncover problems, but monitoring prevents them. Air Rotory provides advanced monitoring solutions that keep your system running efficiently at all times.
Air Leak Detection
Using ultrasonic technology, leaks are detected, analysed, and categorised by severity. Early detection significantly reduces wastage.
Multi-Gas Monitoring
Monitoring for harmful gases helps detect combustion inefficiencies, system contamination, and safety risks.
Dew Point Monitoring
Controlling moisture is critical in compressed air systems. Dew point monitoring prevents:
- Corrosion
- Water contamination
- Blockages
- Damage to pneumatic tools
- Reduced product quality in production environments
Real-Time System Insights
Continuous monitoring provides live data on system behaviour, helping maintenance teams make informed decisions before breakdowns occur.
Air Rotory enables companies to transition from reactive repairs to proactive maintenance, saving time, money, and resources.
The Benefits to Your Business
Investing in air auditing and monitoring is not an expense, it’s a long-term operational advantage. Air Rotory clients typically experience:
- Up to 30% reduction in energy costs
- Improved air quality and pressure stability
