Common Pipe Sizing Mistakes in Compressed Air Systems

...and how to avoid them Compressed air performance is often blamed on the compressor, when the real issue sits downstream in the pipework. Incorrect pipe sizing is one of the most common and costly mistakes in compressed air system design, leading to pressure loss, inefficiency, and avoidable operating expense. Understanding where pipe sizing goes wrong [...]

Design Considerations for Compressed Air Piping Systems

When it comes to compressed air, performance starts long before the compressor. A well-designed piping system determines how efficiently air is delivered throughout your facility, influencing energy use, equipment lifespan, and overall reliability. Designing an efficient compressed air piping system requires balancing flow performance, pressure stability, material selection, and long-term maintainability. This guide outlines seven [...]
