Compressed Air Piping
Kaeser's SmartPipeXL™ is a modular compressed air distribution system that offers both lower installation costs and lower long term operating costs.

Piping selection directly affects the three key elements of every compressed air system: flow, pressure, and air quality. Poor choices in pipe materials, diameter, and layout cause flow restrictions, often resulting in significant pressure drop. Pressure drop is a leading cause of increased energy consumption and underperforming air driven tools and equipment.

The types of fittings used must also be considered. Some connection types cause pressure drop, need special tools, and take more time to install.

    Aluminum Piping: SmartPipe™ Compressed Air Piping System

    Kaeser's SmartPipe™ is a modular aluminum pipe for compressed air installations, offering both lower installation costs and lower long-term operating costs. From small shops to large industrial systems, SmartPipe™ is great for all facilities and is available in sizes up to 8 pipe diameter.

    Air line pipe with optimum flow and air quality
    SmartPipe™'s smooth calibrated aluminum construction has a low friction coefficient, providing the best possible laminar flow. Full bore fittings further minimize pressure drop for optimum flow and energy efficiency. Leak-free connectors prevent air loss and wasted energy.

    SmartPipe™ is ideal for installations requiring the highest quality air. Aluminum material will not rust or corrode. Further, it has no rough surfaces or interior restrictions that accumulate contaminants. The smooth interior with full bore design allows them to flow to your dryers and filters for efficient removal."
