AIR REGULATORS: Clean, dry and lubricated air at the
correct pressure is the most important requirement for
perfect operation of air tools. KC Tools range of air
tools are designed to operate at 90 P.S.I. unless
otherwise specificed.
MOISTURE SEPARATORS: On installations where the pipping
system does not provide clean, dry air the use of filters
at hose connections points is recommended.
STRAINERS/FILTERS: Many tools arte provided with air
strainers or filters. To eliminate air restriction these
strainers must be kept clean and free of obstructions.
Strainers or filters should be used at each hose outlet.
LUBRICATION: Many pneumatic tools, due to weight and space
limitations do not contain built-in lubricators. Air line
lubricators are recommended with all air tools.
MOISTURE ELIMINATION: The amount of moisture carried by
compressed air varies with the temperature. As the
temperature drops after compression, water is
precipitated. To eliminate as much water as possible,
compressors should be equiped with intercoolers,
aftercoolers and full size receivers. These should
be kept drained and in good working condition.
COMPRESSOR AIR INTAKE: Locate the air intake to obtain
the coolest, driest and cleanest air possible. Intakes
should be of ample size and as direct as possible.
Avoid dusty or wet locations.
PIPING SYSTEM: Air mains and lines should be large enough
to avoid excessive pressure loss under heavy working
conditions. Pipe lines should be provided with drains for
trapping water before it reaches the hose outlet. The
‘pitch’ of the mains line should be in the direction of
the air flow so that gravity and air flow will carry the
water to traps located at regular intervals. Provision for
quick and positive inspection of operation for leakage
should be made when traps are installed. Taps in the drains
are usually provided for draining and inspection of water
collected. To prevent moisture from reaching the tools,
down pipes or hose connections should never be taken
directly from the bottom of air pipes or mains. Connections
should be made at the top of the a main line. Valves and
hose connections should be large enough to pass the
maximum amount of air required by the tool or tools on the
line.
