Compressed Air Systems
The purpose of a compressed air system is to generate and maintain a reliable source of high-pressure, or compressed air. Compressed air is used directly in such commercial applications as spray painting and sandblasting, and it is used extensively as an energy source for powering pneumatic tools and actuators. This course covers industrial compressed air system and their common components, including different air compressor types, filters, coolers, receivers, dryers, and distribution systems. Leak detection and compressed air safety is also discussed.
