# The price of compressed air leakage

 The calculator can be used to estimate the cost of a leakage. It is assumed that the leak occurs at an ambient pressure of 1 bar, the system pressure is always above 1.9 bar, and the power required to produce compressed air is 7 kW/m³/min.

Leak diameter  mm

Pressure  bar(g)

Temperature  °C

Energy price  €/MWh

Usage hours / year  h

 Amount of leakage  
0,15 kg/s

 Amount of leakage  
7,35 m³/min

 Wasted power  
51,5 kW

 Wasted energy  
446 MWh/a

 Cost of leakage  
22 316 €/a
