Reduce CO2 emissions
You want to use compressed air more efficiently and reduce CO2 emissions, but don't know the weak points in the compressed air system? Then you should start with the TÜV-certified compressed air energy efficiency audit according to ISO 11011 - and save up to 60% of operating costs!
Holistic audit
The Festo auditors examine the entire compressed air system: from compressed air generation with the utilization of the compressors to compressed air preparation and quality to the compressed air network.
In addition, they carry out a representative leakage detection test on selected pneumatic systems, check the pneumatic efficiency and evaluate the potential savings. To round off the audit offer, the specialists prepare a concept for a monitoring system.
Detailed documentation
You can use the final report of the audit for energy management according to ISO 50001. In addition to all analysis data, the CO2 emission values of the compressed air system are also shown. You can use this data for your sustainability report, for example in accordance with the GRI or GHG Protocol.
Significant potential savings
Up to 60% of the operating costs of pneumatic systems can be saved if you put the results and analyses of the compressed air energy efficiency audit into practice.
An audit in five steps: This is how the entire compressed air system is put to the test
In the first three steps, the energy efficiency experts from Festo analyze the compressed air generation, compressed air preparation and compressed air distribution of the entire system. Only then do they turn their attention to the pneumatic applications, i.e. the machines and systems themselves. They analyze the energy efficiency of these machines and systems and detect any leaks. In the fifth and final step, the specialists develop a concept for a compressed air monitoring system with which you can permanently monitor the energy conditions – if you wish, also supported by artificial intelligence.
1. Analysis of compressed air generation
Non-proprietary analysis during operation: power consumption and performance reserves of the compressors as well as the overall leakage level in the production plant.
2. Analysis of compressed air preparation
Additional measurement of compressed air quality. The goal: to increase the service life of the pneumatic components and avoid machine failures.
3. Analysis of compressed air distribution
A pressure drop measurement for safe processes and reduced costs. This should ensure a constant pressure level – in the best case even with a reduced pressure level.
4. Analysis of pneumatic applications
Check whether drives, valves and tubing are optimally sized, whether blowing and vacuum applications, as well as installation and control concepts, are efficiently designed. Detection and documentation of leaks as the most important efficiency measure.
5. Concept for a compressed air monitoring system
This makes energy status, flow, pressure and humidity transparent – in real time!
