There are safety mechanisms for pneumatic systems, pressure relief valves are one way to prevent over-pressurizing the system.
You’d want to have a system like this installed by a licensed pipefitter and properly commissioned and tested before operating it, along with regular maintenance.
- greesil 4y agoWhat kind of maintenance?
- Arrath 4y agoPeriodic tests of joints and valves to ensure they aren't leaking or stuck, respectively. Servicing the air/water separator so that the stored air is dry rather than moisture laden, causing condensation and rusting inside the piping and storage tanks (see: stuck valves). Changing the compressor oil. Making sure no one stuck a metal blank on the emergency relief, making it useless. Hydrostatic load tests of the storage tanks. Things like that.
