1 Advanced Air Pipe System Compressed Air, Vacuum, Inert Gas An Energy Efficient Solution

2 Transair Innovative Technology Transair s aluminum compressed air pipe system is quick to install and easy to modify. Transair components are removable and interchangeable, which allows immediate and easy layout modifications. Unlike the performance of steel and copper, which degrades over time due to corrosion, Transair provides clean air quality with optimum flow rate performance. Transair also offers significant savings on installation, maintenance and operating costs compared to traditional pipe. The quick, instant connections eliminate the need to thread, solder or glue pipe. Labor accounts for only 20% of the cost of installing Transair, while labor accounts for 50% to 80% of the cost of installing steel or copper systems. Transair s aluminum pipe system significantly reduces plant energy costs by increasing efficiency, reducing pressure drops, and eliminating leaks. Available in ½ to 4 pipe sizes, the Parker Transair system features push-to-connect technology that secures connections with a simple push and provides a leak-free guarantee. The aluminum pipe eliminates corrosion, ensuring the longevity of equipment and helps to avoid frequent changes of filtration elements. Transair can also be integrated into existing copper and steel piping without compromising performance, making it perfect for upgrades or expansion projects. Transair s additional benefits include: Energy efficient Lower install costs Push-to-connect technology Immediate pressurization Removable and reusable Modular design No corrosion Leak-free guarantee Full bore design 1/2-4 pipe sizes!

14 Transair Significant Energy Savings Compressed air represents one of the largest opportunities for immediate energy savings. Plant management is often surprised to hear that compressed air can represent 20-50% of a plant s electric bill. Plant management is truly amazed when they find out that using an efficient piping system specifically designed for compressed air can reduce their energy bill by 30-60%, many times within a 24-month period. For instance, a large industrial plant recently redesigned their compresed air system with Transair. This accounted for 35% savings in the plant s monthly energy bill, which paid for the system in 15 months. The plant continues to save by: Increased air system reliability Reduced maintenance cost and extended equipment life Reduced system downtime, increased production rates The results speak for themselves and show that Transair is the best performing system and the best long-term choice, no matter whether the project is for an extension, the modification of an existing pipe system or a new installation.

42 Transair Optimal Machine and Tool Efficiency The clean air quality and full bore design of Transair provides optimal machine and tool efficiency. Transair s aluminum pipe ensures a total absence of corrosion. The inner pipe surface consistently delivers clean compressed air. Transair prevents the problems caused by rust, which affects galvanized steel systems. Due to consistent clean quality air, from compressor outlets to machines, Transair aluminum pipe ensures higher longevity of equipment and avoids frequent changes of filtration elements. The full bore design of Transair s components, the low friction coefficient of aluminum pipe, and the sealing characteristics of the system ensure optimal and constant flow throughout. Due to its innovative technology, Transair gives better performance in terms of improved flow and reduced pressure drop. Example: A 63mm Transair system gives a flow performance better than that of a nominal (2 1/2 ) galvanized steel system. Example: S teel pipe can erode by a 40% factor over its lifetime. Transair maintains its smooth bore through out its lifetime.

44 > Installation > Installation instructions > General Prior to the installation of a Transair compressed air distribution system, the installer should ensure that the installation area complies with any regulations applicable to areas exposed to explosive hazards (in particular the effect of static electricity in a silo area). Transair should be installed downstream of the compressed air receiver, or after the dryer. Flexible Transair hose can be installed at the start of the system in order to eliminate any sources of vibration and to facilitate maintenance operations. When maintaining or modifying a Transair system, the relevant section should be vented prior to the commencement of any work. Installers should use only Transair components and accessories, in particular Transair pipe clips and fixture clamps. The technical properties of the Transair components, as described in the Transair catalog, must be respected. > Pressurizing the system Once the Transair installation has been installed and prior to pressurizing, the installer should complete all tests, inspections and compliance checks as stated in any contract and according to sound engineering practice and current local regulations. > Transair pipe and hoses Transair pipe should be protected from mechanical impact, particularly if exposed to collision with fork-lift trucks or when sited in an environment with moving overhead loads. Similarly, rotation of the pipe and pipe supports should be avoided. Transair pipe must not be welded. Flexible Transair hoses should be used in accordance with the recommendations of the installation guidelines. Note: In certain situations, Transair aluminum pipe may be formed with a bend - please contact us for further information. > Expansion / contraction Expansion and contraction of the system should be calculated prior to installation. The system designer and installer should calculate the elongation or retraction of each Transair line according to the recommendations in this installation guide. > Component assembly Transair components are provided with assembly instructions for their correct use - simply follow the methods and recommendations stated in this document. > Transair installations - situations to avoid > installation within a solid mass (concrete,foam, etc.) > the hanging of any external equipment to Transair pipe > the use of Transair for earthing, or as a support for electrical equipment > exposure to chemicals that are incompatible with Transair components (please contact us for further details)

45 42/43 > Sound engineering practice for the optimization of an air pipework system > When installing a Transair system, the work should be performed in accordance with good engineering practice. > Bends and bypasses represent sources of pressure drop. To avoid excessive pressure loss, use modular consoles to offset the network and to bypass obstacles. Keep in-line pipe diameter reductions to a minimum. > Maintain a consistent level of good quality air by use of adequate filtration at the compressor outlet. > The diameter of the pipe will influence pressure drop and the operation of point-of-use equipment. Select the diameter according to the required flow rate and acceptable pressure drop at the point of use. > Position drops should be as close as possible to the point of use.
