A gas duster, also known as tinned wind, compressed air, or canned air, is a product used for cleaning or dusting electronic equipment and other sensitive devices that cannot be cleaned using water. This type of product is most often packaged as a can that, when a trigger is pressed, blasts a stream of compressed gas through a nozzle at the top.
A variation on the single canister desiccant dryer is the Toilet Paper filter. These types of filters provide the same basic function as a desiccant dryer except they use an ordinary roll of toilet paper as their absorption media. When the toilet paper becomes saturated, it is removed and replaced with a fresh roll.
Compressed Air and Gas Institute (CAGI) is the industry association located in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. It was founded in 1915. It was founded in 1915. CAGI represents manufacturers of compressed air system equipment, including air compressors , blowers , pneumatic tools , and air and gas drying and filtration equipment.
Compressed air is an important medium for the transfer of energy in industrial processes and is used for power tools such as air hammers, drills, wrenches, and others, as well as to atomize paint, to operate air cylinders for automation, and can also be used to propel vehicles. Brakes applied by compressed air made large railway trains safer ...
A Yankee dryer is a pressure vessel used in the production of machine glazed (MG) and tissue paper. On the Yankee dryer, the paper goes from approximately 42–45% dryness to just over 89% dryness. In industry, MG cylinders or Yankee dryers are primarily used to remove excess moisture from pulp that is about to be converted into paper.
Canister filter, a canister-styled fluid filter introduced in some of the Chrysler Corporation's automatic transmissions known as TorqueFlite; Canister filter, a filter that is used to treat sulfur water; Canister filter, a respirator canister or cartridge that is used to clean pollution from air; Canister filter, in compressed air dryer
In the first half-cycle, the first cylinder receives air from the compressor, which lasts about 3 seconds. During that time, the pressure in the first cylinder rises from atmospheric to about 2.5 times normal atmospheric pressure (typically 20 psi/138 kPa gauge, or 2.36 atmospheres absolute) and the zeolite becomes saturated with nitrogen.
If a compressed gas cylinder falls over, causing the valve block to be sheared off, the rapid release of high-pressure gas may cause the cylinder to be violently accelerated, potentially causing property damage, injury, or death. To prevent this, cylinders are normally secured to a fixed object or transport cart with a strap or chain.
