The Compressed Air System transforms the pressure potential into mechanical energy by transmitting the energy accumulated in the air to distant parts. It is a type of Industrial Energy that is generally used in the production and service sector. Compressed Air Systems are commonly preferred in the manufacturing, maintenance industries, shipbuilding, construction and mining industries.

For facilities close to the point of use and supply, a single-line main pipe network will be sufficient. In such cases, the pipe diameter should be large enough to comply with the highest amount of air that will pass through the pipe and to ensure that the pressure loss value is less than the maximum allowable pressure loss. The entire pipe network must be well supported.
