Aluminum Air Piping Systems

Over the past few years, aluminum piping has become the standard. It doesn’t leak air around the threads like threaded pipe, is less expensive than copper, and doesn’t corrode like a galvanized pipe when water vapor enters the line. With accessible plug-and-play technology, compressed air transport should be stress-free.

Air Pipe for Compressed Air Systems: The Backbone of Your Operation

If your operation requires compressed air, you need a reliable system to transport it. Compressed air pipes are essential for moving air from the point of compression, through the filtration system, and to the point of use. Without air pipes, your compressed air system cannot function efficiently.

The air piping network is like a highway for your compressed air, delivering energy across your facility to where it’s needed most. To ensure the air reaches its destination in optimal condition, every aspect of your air piping system must be considered, from the travel distance to pressure drops that occur along the way.

Key Benefits of Prevost Compressed Air Piping

When it comes to air compressor piping, Prevost aluminum piping offers unmatched ease of assembly and reliability. Key benefits of Prevost air piping include:

  • Anti-Corrosive Material: Prevents rust and extends the lifespan of your system.
  • Minimal Pressure Loss: Smooth internal surfaces ensure laminar flow.
  • UV and Heat-Resistant: Built to withstand harsh environments.
  • Low Coefficient of Expansion: Durable and adaptable to varying temperatures.
  • ISO Marking and Color-Coded: Available in blue, gray, and green in a variety of diameters (3/4”, 1”, and 2”).
  • No Fire Hazard: Installation does not require a fire permit.
  • Easy Installation: Simple tools for cutting and chamfering.
  • Lightweight and Cost-Effective

Additionally, Prevost aluminum fittings provide easy identification of pipe position, pressure, and diameter, ensuring a perfect fit every time.

Types of Compressed Air Pipe

When choosing piping for your compressed air system, it’s important to select materials that can handle both your current and future demands. Here’s an overview of the most common types of compressed air pipes:

1. Copper Pipe

  • Advantages: Corrosion-resistant, lightweight, and adaptable for easy cutting and welding.
  • Drawbacks: Requires welding and reconfiguration for system expansions or changes.

2. Aluminum Pipe

  • Advantages: Anti-corrosive, lightweight, and easy to install. Aluminum pipes offer flexibility for system changes with minimal effort.
  • Drawbacks: Slightly higher upfront cost compared to some alternatives, but the flexibility and durability offset this over time.

3. Stainless Steel Pipe

  • Advantages: Extremely durable with excellent resistance to corrosion.
  • Drawbacks: Heavy and difficult to install, with high material and fitting costs.

4. Black Steel Pipe

  • Advantages: Strong and durable for long-term use.
  • Drawbacks: Susceptible to corrosion, heavy, and difficult to install or modify. The threaded connections can loosen over time, leading to leaks.

Why Proper Air Piping Matters for Your Compressed Air System

Properly sized air piping is essential for ensuring that your system operates efficiently. Piping that is too small or inefficient can lead to significant pressure drops, resulting in higher energy consumption and lower productivity.

Compressed air storage acts as a buffer, ensuring consistent airflow even during demand spikes. Additionally, incorporating the right piping material can:

  • Increase system longevity
  • Minimize energy consumption
  • Reduce the likelihood of leaks and pressure drops
