COMPRESSORS
SIZING COMPRESSOR
Air Demand (Liter/minute)
Working Pressure( bar)
Number of pneumatic tool/equipments
Utilazation factor (10%-50%)
Effective air demand (Liter/minute)
Type of tool and size give different air
consumption
Example: Selection of Compressor
Operational Spray gun Wrench Blow gun Screw
Data driver
Air demand 150 L/m 320L/m 240L/m 400L/m
Working 2.5 bar 5 bar 6 bar 6 bar
pressure
Number off units 2 1 1 1
Utilazation factor 50% 25% 10% 20%
(duty time)
Effective air (2x150x.5) 320 x0.25 240L x0.1 400 x 0.2
demand =150 L/m =80 L/m =24L/m =80L/m
Total air demand=150+80+24+80 =334 L/m
Required volume= {334+334( 10%leakage +15%error+15%reserve)}
=467L/m at 6 bar
Then refer catalogue
AIR RECEIVER
Required in almost of compressed air system
To act as buffer and air storage
Standard range available 90 – 10000 litres
Working pressure 11 – 50 bar
AIR RECEIVER
STANDARD FITTING
•Ball valve
•Pressure relief valve
•Pressure gauge
•Drain tap
AIR TREATMENT/FILTER
To remove dirt particles and the majority
pollution
Pure air reduces down time of the pneumatic
machines
To save servicing maintenance and repair
cost
Particle retention 1-3 micron m
REFRIGERANT DRYER
To remove water vapour from the
compressed air.
Reduce break down, production down
time, maintenance and repair cost
Consist heat exchanger
IP 52-54 class of protection
Refrigerant circuit is seal and incorporates
a scroll compressor type.
PIPE SIZING AND SELECTION OF
PIPEWORK
Bore size of the pipeline selection depend on:-
Air consumption
Length of the air line
Working pressure
Pressure drop
e.g:- FAD =1 m3/min,
W.pressure =7.5 bar,
Pine length =50m length
=1” bore diameter. (from table :kaeser)
PIPE MATERIAL
Steel or plastic ?
Galvanised
Stainless steel
Copper
Polymer
Example of the filter
AIR FILTER
STANDARDS
BS 1042 – Method OF Measurement of Fluid
Flow in Closed Conduits
BS 1710 – Identification of Pipelines
BS 6244 – Code of Practice for Stationery
Compressor
ASME code - SECTION 8-11
