What is the compressed air pressure generally used by plant equipment?

The compressed air pressure generally used by plant equipment will be determined according to the specific application requirements and equipment specifications. However, the following common air pressure ranges can be summarized:

conventional Industrial Applications:

in general, the pressure of compressed air used in industry is usually between 0.7MPa and 1.0MPa, which corresponds to 7bar to 10bar. This range is suitable for many pneumatic tools, automation equipment and other general applications.

Relevant national standards:

according to the relevant national standards, the normal pressure range of industrial compressed air is 0.6MPa 0.8MPa, that is, 6 bar8bar. This is in view of the general requirements of most industrial equipment and systems.

Specific applications:

certain applications, such as heavy machinery, pneumatic fixtures, or specific process equipment, may require higher air pressures. For example, it may sometimes reach 1.2MPa(12bar) or more.

On the other hand, for lightweight applications, only a lower gas pressure, such as 0.5MPa(5bar) or less, may be required.

Air compression station supply pressure:

generally, the pressure of the air compressor station in the factory is controlled at about 0.8MPa(8bar), while the compressed air supply pressure of the equipment is usually between 0.60.7MPa(6 bar7bar). The supply pressure of the air compression station should be slightly higher than the requirements of the equipment to compensate for the loss of pipeline pressure drop.

In general, the compressed air pressure used by plant equipment is a range that varies according to actual needs, rather than a fixed value. When selecting compressed air pressure, it is recommended to consult engineers in related fields or compressed air equipment suppliers to ensure that work requirements are met and efficiency is maintained.
