This case study was written by Keith Agnew at Solutia. This chemical company is located in South Wales and is known for being proactive in the field of energy savings.
This particular site actually has a rather extensive compressed air network, and the Ultraprobe 2000 has become a key part of their leak detection programme, which is undertaken every six months.
"First time out, the Ultraprobe 2000 detected 412 leaks resulting in the estimated annual loss of £66,500. As a company, we need to keep on top of these leaks to avoid costly consumption of electricity."
"Generation efficiencies are the typical average of 10%. Each round of checks using the Ultraprobe is then followed by a round of fixes, in which typically 75% can be corrected at no cost."
"The use of the Ultraprobe in this application alone has paid for itself many times over. Whether you are looking to achieve lower unit costs or save under your Climate Change Agreement, equipment like this is a must."
