Factory compressed air pressure

The air pressure of the compressed air in the factory is a dynamically changing value, which is determined according to the specific application scenario, equipment specifications and relevant national standards. The following is a detailed analysis of the compressed air pressure in the factory:

1. common air pressure range

1. general application for many pneumatic tools, automation equipment and other routine applications, the output pressure of factory compressors is usually between 0.7MPa and 1.0MPa (or 7-10bar), which can meet the general requirements of most industrial equipment and systems.
2. Relevant national standards according to the relevant national standards, the normal pressure range of industrial compressed air is set at 0.6MPa to 0.8MPa (or 6-8bar), which takes into account the actual needs of most industrial equipment and systems.
3. Application-specific: For certain applications, such as heavy machinery, pneumatic fixtures or specific process equipment, higher air pressure may be required. In these cases, the output pressure of the compressor may reach 1.2MPa or more (or more than 10bar) to meet special operating requirements.
4. Lightweight applications: In contrast, for lightweight applications, only lower air pressure may be required. In these cases, the output pressure of the compressor may be set at 0.5MPa or less (or less than 5bar).

2. industry differences

the industry and production process requirements of the factory using compressed air are different, and the required air pressure is also different. For example:

• machining and spraying industries require high pressure and stable air pressure, generally between 8-10bar.
• Rubber industry and food industry, need to use low pressure gas source, generally between 2-4bar.

Pressure supply of 3. air compression station

generally, the pressure of the air compressor station in the factory is controlled at about 0.8MPa, while the compressed air supply pressure of the equipment is usually between 0.6MPa and 0.7MPa. The supply pressure of the air compression station is slightly higher than the equipment requirements to compensate for the loss of pipeline pressure drop.

4. other considerations

1. equipment requirements different production equipment has different requirements for the pressure of compressed air. Some pneumatic tools or devices may require higher pressures to perform specific tasks.
2. Safety factor: Excessive pressure may cause equipment damage or safety risks. Therefore, when selecting the pressure of the air compressor, the safety performance and service life of the equipment need to be considered.
3. Energy consumption: Higher pressure means greater energy consumption. In order to reduce operating costs, plants need to choose as low a pressure as possible while meeting production needs.

5. Summary

in summary, the air pressure of the factory compressed air is a parameter that needs to be determined according to specific needs and equipment requirements. In practical applications, it is necessary to select the appropriate compressor model and output pressure range according to the specific situation. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to the safety performance, service life and energy consumption of the equipment to ensure the stable operation and economic benefits of the compressed air system.
