FLEET COMPANIES AND MUNICIPALITIES

 Compressed air filtration is crucial to protecting equipment (prevents wear and tear / malfunctions by removing contaminants from tools), ensuring safety (prevents health risks and fire hazards) and maintaining performance and quality (improves tool efficiency, even finishes, etc.).

When implementing compressed air solutions, fleet operations must consider several factors, such as air requirements, system design and selection, maintenance and safety, and environmental considerations. Compressed air solutions act as the power source for automotive air tools, enabling them to operate safely, efficiently and effectively. 

Compressed air offers several ways to optimize fluid transfer in fleet repair, leading to increased efficiency, accuracy and cleanliness. Examples include air operated pumps that allow efficient fluid movement, precise fluid dispensing and efficient extraction, blow guns for cleaning and drying, etc.

A dedicated air line with appropriate pressure ensures efficient operation of tire machines. Similarly, a reliable air supply is necessary for smooth and efficient lifting and lowering of vehicles on auto lifts. Proper piping ensures the lift operates at its intended speed and capacity.

 Advantages include improved efficiency, cost savings and overall service delivery. Specific benefits include standardization and streamlining through simplified procurement and consistent service/technical expertise, reduced operational costs via improved resource allocation, improved system integration and increased accountability.

Compressed air can support greater energy efficiency in municipalities through leak detection and repair, high-quality materials and proper installation, optimizing pressure/flow, and efficient system design.

Depending on the environment, elements such as humidity, moisture and potential chemical exposure are among the common corrosion concerns.

Filtration applications such as filters and replacement elements, compressed air dryers and drains are important elements of total system filtration and point-of-use filtration.
