11. Implementation Guidelines

12. Separate Brewery by line or cost center Generate Repetitive Work Order Perform Ultrasonic Scan Document Potential Savings

13. Implementation Guidelines Determine Cause of Air Loss –Design Issue –Actual Leak

14. Implementation Guidelines Design Issue –Notify Reliability Mgr –Determine Cost Effectiveness to Re-design Yes –Notify Corporate Liaison of Re-design No –Stop

15. Implementation Guidelines Air Loss is a Leak –Can Leak be Repaired Now? No –Generate Work Order –Schedule Repair Yes –Repair Leak

16. Implementation Guidelines Verify that Leak is Repaired Re-assessment and Follow-up

17. Conclusions and Summaries Objective –Lower Cost of Maintenance & Production Reduce demand for Air and Steam Reduced waste of CO2 Future Implementations –Condition Monitoring –Condition Based Lubrication

18. Final Tip It is often noted that “finding a leak never saved a dime” and no truer words can be spoken on the subject of ultrasonic compressed air leak detection. As satisfying as it may be to spend 8 hours identifying 100’s of compressed air leaks, there is no payback in wrapping a yellow ribbon around a leaking pipe fitting. “It has to be fixed to save”
