Step 7: Calculate pressure <strong>in</strong><br />

distributi<strong>on</strong> system<br />

If there is no demand for compressed air the pressure<br />

should be c<strong>on</strong>stant throughout the system.<br />

However, as compressed air flows through the<br />

distributi<strong>on</strong> system a loss of pressure will occur, this is<br />

caused by the speed of flow.<br />

To m<strong>in</strong>imise the loss of pressure caused by the<br />

distributi<strong>on</strong> system, ensure that pipe-work is of the<br />

correct dimensi<strong>on</strong>.<br />
