Air Tools and Air Pressure
Piping
Piping layout is very important to use the air tool efficiently. When a pipe is connected to an air compressor, the pipe should be installed at a reasonably high position from the air compressor to prevent drain from coming into the pipe from the air compressor. A slope more than 1/100 is necessary to drain water easily. The diameter of the main pipe should be determined according to an average air flow at load. The diameter of branch pipes should be 50% to 70% of the main pipe. Thin pipes may cause the drop of air pressure, so the pipes should be chosen lest air pressure should drop more than 0.0315 MPa. The drop of air pressure due to joints, elbows, etc. should be also taken into account.
