Compressed air is safe, economical, adaptable and easily transmitted and provides labor saving power. The cost of a complete Compressed air System and pneumatic tools is relatively small in comparison with the savings effected by their of the Compressed Air Distribution SystemThe primary object of a Compressed air distribution System is to transport the Compressed air from its point of production (compressors) to its points of use (applications) in sufficient quantity and quality and at adequate pressure for effi-cient operation of air tools and other pneumatic devices.

Many pieces of production equipment are actuated by pneumatic cylinders. These include automatic feed devices, chucks, vises, clamps, presses, intermittent recipro-cating and rotary motion devices, door openers and many other devices. Such devices usually have low air consumption and are themselves inexpensive. Accordingly, their
