STORY

Acoustic camera finds air leaks

By visually pinpointing leaks, we can address them more effectively, saving energy and aligning with our commitment to sustainability. 



When it comes to protecting the environment, every effort counts. Several Nolato companies have therefore joined forces and invested in an acoustic camera that detects air leaks.

Compressed air and vacuum systems are energy intensive, and leaks make them even more so. Besides costing money, this doesn’t really sit well with Nolato’s goal of cutting energy usage. 

Compressed air and vacuum piping often spans large areas of the business, with numerous connectors, pipes and hoses. Filming with the acoustic camera along the tubing and piping using the handheld device provides a visual image of the leaks, and gives an idea of the annual cost in terms of energy. 

“Otherwise we would have had to largely rely on listening for the leaks, which is tricky in the production environment of our plants,” notes Mats Carlsson, Facility Manager at Nolato MediTech in Hörby, Sweden.
