Compressed air requirements for automation equipment

The requirements of automation equipment for compressed air mainly involve pressure, flow, cleanliness and dryness to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and extend its service life. The following are the specific requirements for compressed air for automation equipment:

stable pressure: Automation equipment usually requires a stable supply of compressed air. Pressure fluctuations may affect the normal operation of the equipment, so the pressure of the compressed air needs to be kept stable within the range required by the equipment.

Sufficient flow: Automation equipment may require a large amount of compressed air when working, so the compressed air system is required to provide sufficient flow to meet the continuous work of the equipment.

Cleanliness: compressed air can not contain too many impurities, such as dust, particles, etc., these impurities may damage the precision parts of automation equipment. Therefore, it is necessary to use a filter and other equipment to purify the compressed air.

Dryness: The moisture in the compressed air may cause rust or corrosion inside the equipment and affect the service life of the equipment. Therefore, it is necessary to use a dryer to remove the moisture in the compressed air to ensure its dryness.

Low oil content: If the compressed air contains too much oil, it may cause pollution to the automation equipment, especially for some equipment that requires a high clean environment. Therefore, the oil in the compressed air needs to be controlled within a certain range.

In order to meet these requirements of automation equipment, it is usually equipped with corresponding compressed air handling systems, including air compressors, air storage tanks, filters, dryers and other equipment to ensure that the compressed air provided to the automation equipment meets the requirements of use. At the same time, the compressed air system needs to be maintained and maintained regularly to ensure its normal operation and stable performance.
