Abstract
A monitoring system for a facility can automatically determine the presence of leaks in a compressed gas system at the facility. The monitoring system can use information from sensors in the compressed gas system to determine if there is a constant flow of gas in the system that can be indicative of a leak in the system. The monitoring system can process flow measurements from the sensors to determine minimum gas flow amounts for a series of time windows. The minimum gas flow amounts are then averaged to generate an average minimum gas flow amount. If the average minimum gas flow amount is greater than an average threshold, a variance of the minimum gas flow amounts can be determined. If the determined variance is less than a variance threshold, the average minimum gas flow amount is determined to correspond to a leak in the compressed gas system.
