Which evaluation software will best help you fix compressed air leaks?
Finding compressed air leaks is one thing. To achieve the savings, you need to plan and execute the repair.
This is where the hardware and software developed by CS Instruments will help you – that you can do this process paperless and store all the necessary information right on the spot.
1. Use case - Which solution is right for you?
You can choose the right solution for your requirements from the CS Instruments product range. We will be glad to advise you additionally. Contact We have already defined some typical scenarios, which we have considered during the development of the solution.
Specific application examples for the CS Leak Reporter Cloud solution
- you work for a service provider (compressed air or pneumatic dealer) and offer the service to your customers (So you can give them access to their respective data).
- you work for a company with several locations and want to compare or network them. Then you can map the group structure as a user structure, and the individual locations canwork independently . However, it is still possible to generate cross-site users or invite external service providers to the cloud.
Typical application example for Leak Reporter 2.0
- You work for a medium-sized company, and a single employee is responsible for leak detection and repair.
2. General advantages of the leak reporter software
You need to know where each leak is located and what is required to fix it. To prioritize the leakages, it is essential to compare the effort (cost of spare parts, labor time, and production downtime?) and the return on the repair (energy costs caused by the leakage).
After fixing the leakage and changing the status, you can quickly and easily present the improvements to an auditor or your supervisor. Save your next audit to a new project, and you have a history – what was done in your company and when to reduce the leakage rate permanently. This is where the hardware and software developed by CS Instruments can help you.
- In 2018, CS Leak Reporter V1 was launched and has been continuously further developed
- In 2022, CS Instruments now takes the next step, brings leakage management to the cloud, and launches the revised Leak Reporter V2.

Installation / Automatic Updates:
Leak Reporter Software V2: can be installed under both programs and users. This means you no longer need administrator rights (approval from IT) for installation or automatic updates if you choose the user installation.
Cloud solution: Since you log in via the browser with your email address and password, you are no longer tied to your computer and an installation.
User and access management (Cloud solution):
If multiple users are to have access to leakage data, you a need sophisticated user and access management.
This allows you to create and maintain users inside and outside the organization (admin, user, guest, individual roles).
Suitable for your framework conditions, you can thus build up a user hierarchy that makes it possible to specifically release personal resources (leakage projects) for each user and assign rights to functions within the software.
Data import from LD 500
The data import is now performed as a sequence for both the Leak Reporter V2 and with the Cloud solution. This makes it even easier for you to import the latest leaks to the right place so you can keep track of them.
Automatic import of project master data
With Leak Reporter V2 and the Cloud solution, the project master data is now automatically set for each project. So you can see at a glance which configuration was used in LD 500. If necessary, you can make adjustments here, which will be used globally for all leaks within the project.
Export leakage repair database
In the LD 500, you can describe precisely what needs to be done to fix each leakage. This database can also be generated using the Leak Reporter V2 or Cloud and imported into the LD 500.
- Measuring point (company, building, location)
- Leak description (leakage element, measure, spare part)
New functions (automatic updates)
We are continuously working on new functionalities and incorporating customer feedback into product development. If you decide to use Leak Reporter V2 or the Cloud solution, you will participate from the network effects.
The updates are automatically displayed and you can download them free of charge for the CS Leak Reporter V2.
For the cloud solution, these are automatically installed and published on the server. So you always work with the latest version.
