Technology Overview
Air Compressor Leakage Detection Technology.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, approximately 30% of compressed air produced is lost to leaks. ITRI's Air Compressor Leakage Detection Technology is developed to provide realtime monitoring and maintenance to tackle the often unnoticed air compressor leakage. The technology features a novel acoustic structure design and an adaptive leakage detection algorithm to enhance sensitivity, range, and noise resistance, achieving 100% accuracy in detecting leakage above 3 LPM within a 1-meter range. Equipped with wireless IoT technology, it outperforms conventional handheld devices that can only detect leakage within 10-15 cm. This solution aims to reduce energy waste in the semiconductor industry, which heavily relies on compressed air, and will gradually expand to chip packaging and PCB manufacturers.
Applications & Benefits
ITRI is also working with system integrators and module manufacturers to promote cross-industry applications and drive breakthroughs in energy saving and carbon reduction.
