Compressed Air Pressure Monitoring Dashboard
Log line pressure readings for a compressed-air ring main and watch latest, average, min/max, in-range % and excursions against a bar acceptable band.
Acceptable band: 6โ7 bar. Readings are timestamped and stored in your browser only.
Acceptable band 6โ7 bar. Times use this device's clock (2026-06-08).
Field notes from maintenance practice
Every unnecessary bar costs money: each 1 bar above what the tools actually need adds roughly 7% to compressor energy, so the discipline is to find the true minimum and hold it, not to pad it. Log pressure at the point of use furthest from the compressor โ that's where a leak or undersized pipe shows up as a sag the compressor-room gauge never sees. Compressed air is the most expensive utility in many plants, and pressure tells the story: a sagging line at peak demand means a leak, an undersized line or a tired compressor, while running higher 'just to be safe' wastes ~7% energy per extra bar.
Consistency makes the numbers meaningful: measure at the same point, with the same instrument, at sensible intervals (continuous where the risk is high, spot-checks where it is low). The in-range percentage is the metric to watch โ a band that quietly drifts from 100% toward 95% is telling you something is changing before any single reading alarms.

About Compressed Air Pressure Monitoring Dashboard
This dashboard turns scattered line pressure checks for a compressed-air ring main into a monitored series: log a reading whenever you measure and it tracks the latest value, the average, the min/max range, the percentage of readings inside the acceptable band and the number of excursions โ the everyday telemetry picture, computed in your browser with no logger subscription. The default acceptable band is 6โ7 bar typical shop line pressure (set to your tools' requirement plus a margin).
How to use Compressed Air Pressure Monitoring Dashboard

Frequently asked questions
What is the acceptable line pressure range for a compressed-air ring main?+
The default band is 6โ7 bar typical shop line pressure (set to your tools' requirement plus a margin). Treat it as a sensible starting point โ your own specification, regulator, equipment manual or product datasheet sets the authoritative limits, and you can read your true band straight off the worst case those documents allow. Edit the readings against whatever band applies to you.
Pressure is fine at the compressor but low at the machine โ why?+
Pressure drop across the distribution system: undersized pipe, too many fittings/elbows, a clogged filter or dryer, or a long run all eat pressure between the compressor and the point of use, and the drop grows with flow โ so it's worst exactly when demand peaks. Measure at the machine, not the compressor. Fixes: fatten the main pipe, loop the ring main (feeds both ways), service filters/dryers, and fix leaks (which raise system flow and thus drop). Often you can then lower the compressor setpoint and save energy.
How often should I log line pressure readings?+
Match the interval to the consequence and the rate of change: where an excursion spoils product or risks safety, log continuously (or as often as you can sample); where it is merely informative, daily or per-shift spot checks suffice. The in-range % and excursion count only mean something if your sampling is regular โ sparse, irregular readings hide the excursions between them.
Is my logged data private?+
Yes โ every reading is stored in this browser's localStorage on your device and nothing is uploaded to any server, which also makes the dashboard usable on sites with strict data policies. For shared, audit-grade records across a team or for regulatory retention, export the values into your own system.
