The pipeline system with proper size and reasonable design is the necessary part of the compressed air pipeline system. Without this key component, air delivery from the compressor to a specific place of use is inefficient and expensive in both the short and long term. How can the size of the compressed air pipeline system be adjusted to ensure that the pressure loss is minimized?

Compressed air pipe of correct size. As the compressed air passes through the air distribution system, a pressure drop is expected, although the drop is small. In general, air velocity of 20-30 ft / s helps to minimize pressure. In order to determine the size of the compressed air piping system, the working pressure required for the application, CFM (cubic feet per minute) and the distance from the compressor to the place of use (the longest distance) must be considered. Required working pressure. When you weigh more than 2 pounds at work, do you consume 1% of your energy? This is a very important figure, especially in terms of weekly and monthly costs.

Determine the importance of compressed air pipe size. If the pipe path is too small and the air flow is blocked, the pressure will inevitably drop, and the parts in final use will be "insufficient in gas". According to the compressor outlet size, working pressure, CFM and distance, the system pipeline size is calculated. Using a larger pipe size may increase the initial material cost, but it will significantly reduce (or eliminate) the pressure drop, thus achieving long-term savings.

Plan for the future. Don't forget to plan the future demand and expansion. If only based on the current flow demand, rather than planning the future increase, it will lead to errors in the pipeline system. Whenever possible, consider your system requirements from the beginning, and do not modify the pipeline installation in the future. Today, some additional costs and expectations may produce unexpected returns in the future.
