Executive Summary About Compressed Air Systems By Tommy McGuire

What causes pressure drops in my compressed air systems and how can I reduce them?

Pressure drop can become a compressed air system problem that steals production time and money.

What causes pressure drops? The distribution piping system often is diagnosed as having excess pressure drop because a point-of-use pressure regulator cannot sustain the required downstream pressure. Tips to Reduce Pressure Drop:

Minimizing pressure drop requires a “systems approach” in design and maintenance of the system.

• A smooth inner lining of the pipe or hose will cause less pressure drop.
• A rough inner lining of the pipe or hose will cause more pressure drop. Pipe corrosion can cause friction and pressure loss.
• Couplings, fittings and valves increase the pressure drop.

Reducing your system pressure can help improve system performance, reducing leakage rates, and helping reduce stress on operating equipment. Note that a reduced system operating pressure may require modifications to other components, such as pressure regulators, filters, and the size and location of compressed air storage.

Be sure to consider the effects of all your compressed air system’s components on pressure.

Select aftercoolers, separators, dryers and filters having the lowest possible pressure drop for the rated conditions. It’s important to check if manufacturers are including pressure drops in filters, pressure regulators, and hoses in their pressure requirements for end-use equipment, or if those pressure requirements given are for after those components. -Specify pressure regulators, lubricators, hoses, and connections having the best performance characteristics at the lowest pressure differential.

What is Contaminating Your Compressed Air?

How to clean your Compressed Air…

Depending on the level of air purity required, different levels of filtration and types of filters are used.

General Purpose Filters - also called “particulate filters” are used to remove solid particles. Oil and Oil Vapor Removal Filters – also called “coalescing-type filters” are used to remove oil and vapors.

General Purpose Filter Installation: 1 micron particulate prefilter for refrigerated dryers and high efficiency oil removal filters. Design: Two-stage filtration with a first stage of multiple layers of fiber media which pre-filter the air. Second stage has indepth coalescing fiber media which coalesces oil aerosols and removes finer particulates to 1 micron. Performance*: Handles bulk liquid inlet loads to 2,000 ppm w/w, provides 1 micron solid particulate filtration and oil removal to 1 ppm.

Dry Particulate Filter

Second stage captures finer particulates. Performance*: Provides 1 micron solid particulate filtration of desiccant dust.

Maximum Efficiency Oil Removal Filter Installation: Prefilter to desiccant and membrane dryers with a Grade C prefilter, oil-free air applications. Oil Vapor Removal Filter Installation: Afterfilter to high efficiency liquid oil removal filters for true oil-free applications.

Executive Summary About Power Drills By Michael Lavaglio

You don’t have to be concerned about finding an electrical outlet near the work to power the drill.

Cordless drills are a marvelous tool for contractors and other people who work at sites where no electrical power is accessible. When you are purchasing a cordless drill there are certain features you had better look for.

First you ought to look at whether or not the cordless drill battery is included or if you have to buy it separately. Another tip for those who want to know how to purchase a cordless drill is to grip the drill and test it for weight. A drill gets heavy after holding it out for a while.

You also have to look at the length of time the cordless drill battery will last. Drills come in three well-defined handle styles. The best-selling cordless models have the tee handle style where the handle is placed near the middle.

How to Handle a Power Drill

Executive Summary About Power Drills By Wade Davis

Power drills are great tools and can be used for various jobs besides just drilling holes. Here is a brief run through on how to properly use a power drill.

Before you plug in your new power drill, you’ll need to open the chuck by using the chuck key that the drill comes with. With the chuck loose, you’ll want to now insert the drill bit into the front of the drill. Make sure you select the right type of drill bit for your job. Some of the most common drill bits are as follows:

Twist Bit: This is your normal drill bit that allows you to drill a hole into wood, plastic, and/or a light metal.

Spade Bit: This bit does the same as a normal twist bit but can drill bigger holes more effectively.

Be sure to find the right drill bit for your job description.

Executive Summary About Power Drill By Dean Novosat

A power drill is a drill that you do not have to use good old fashion elbow grease with. So what does a power drill do? A power drill is a tool that has a drill bit on the end of it.

The drill then spins this drill bit around very fast, and it digs a hole into different surfaces. Although the drill itself can be big, the drill bit is what is doing all the work.

There are tons of different types of drill bits that you can put on the end of your power drill. These drill bits are used to drill into different things. Other drill bits can go through rock and even concrete. Otherwise, you could end up damaging the drill or the drill bit itself.
