There are 1000 pneumatic valves on site. How big should the air compressor be equipped?

To configure an air compressor for 1000 pneumatic valves, you must know what the air consumption of a single pneumatic valve is. This data can usually be found in the technical specifications or specifications of pneumatic valves, assuming Q (unit: cubic meters per minute, m³/min).

Then, calculate the total air consumption of 1000 pneumatic valves, which is 1000 times Q.

Then, select the exhaust volume of the air compressor based on the total air consumption. When selecting, the exhaust volume of the air compressor should be slightly greater than the total air consumption, so as to ensure sufficient air supply. At the same time, it is also necessary to consider whether the exhaust pressure of the air compressor meets the working pressure requirements of the pneumatic valve.

For example, if the air consumption of a single pneumatic valve is 0.1 m³/min, then the total air consumption of 1000 units is 100 m³/min. At this time, choose an air compressor with a displacement of more than 100 m³/min. If there is a certain margin requirement, you can choose an air compressor with a larger displacement, such as a 120 m³/min.

Of course, in practical applications, the impact of factors such as the efficiency of the air compressor, pressure loss, and ambient temperature on the performance of the air compressor must also be considered.
