SmartPipe+™ Product Catalog ¾” to 2½”

SmartPipe+™ Compressed Air Piping Kaeser’s SmartPipe+ is a modular compressed air distribution system that offers both lower installation costs and lower long term operating costs. Piping selection directly affects the three key elements of every compressed air system: flow, pressure, and air quality. Poor choices in pipe materials, diameter, and layout cause flow restrictions, often resulting in significant pressure drop. Pressure drop is the main cause of increased energy consumption and underperforming air driven tools and equipment. Choices in piping also directly impact installation...

Example An application requires a Kaeser BSD 50 @ 110 psi with the appropriate air treatment. The application process cannot tolerate a pressure drop of more than 5.5 psi in the main header when the main distribution header pressure is 100 psi. Note: the main distribution header is looped. Kaeser BSD 50 @ 110 psi = 232 cfm (FAD) Main distribution pipe length (including equivalent length for all fittings) = 1000 ft. Main header pressure = 100 psi For a looped distribution network, use 50 mm diameter pipe. If the distribution network is a branch or linear, use 63 mm diameter pipe. Note: 1) To...
