Knowing what causes air leakage will hopefully eliminate more of them in the future. Some of the reasons for air leakage in your air compressor system can include:
- Disconnects: Hoses, tubing and push-to-lock attachment points are typical issues. If the attachment point is worn out or not fully connected, the air is able to escape. If there are no O-rings missing, they are not fully sealed.
- Missed welds: cylinders, metal tubes and flanges can cause leakage to their joints, particularly with a welding gap.
- Worn materials: wrapping on cylinder rods, control valves and shut-off valves can be worn out with time. Get them repackaged if they exhibit signs of wear.
- Incorrect sealants: the incorrect form of thread sealant or incorrect use would not prevent leakage. Using the proper products and following their directions.
- Installation of incorrect filters: filters, regulators and low-cost lubricants can sound like fantastic deals. However, these cheaply assembled parts are more likely to spill.
- Dirty walls: Dirty seals, dust and soil may not be air-tight.
- Increased pressure: The higher the pressure, the more air leakage you will feel into existing orifices.
- Old instruments and supplies: the air on the side of your pneumatic equipment can be lost. Delete and repair faulty or leaky devices.
