Prevost Piping System

A range of products designed for compressed air networks and fluid distribution, from Prevost, the compressed air specialists. The range includes over 7,000 products, including our market-leading quick safety couplings for compressed air. A compressed air system moves energy throughout a network to power workstations and machinery. Mount the ringmain of a Prevost 100% aluminium pipe system a minimum height of 2.5 m from the floor. Install smaller diameter «downpipes» or «drops» off the main line to terminate at distribution points throughout the network approximately 1.2 m from the floor. From these points various accessories can be attached (manifolds, safety couplings, filtration, hoses, etc.)

SIZING A COMPRESSED AIR SYSTEM

When designing a system, consider the following:
  • desired flow rate
  • the length of the main line.
Use the table to determine the appropriate pipe diameter with an operating pressure of 8 bar and a maximum pressure drop is 5%.

The 100% aluminium concept

The PREVOST PIPING SYSTEM’s pipes and fittings are 100% aluminium, compact, lightweight and professional strength. They can be installed easily and quickly for immediate pressurisation.

The PREVOST PIPING SYSTEM range ensures:
  • clean, high quality air at all times
  • A sealed system
  • An optimised fow rate
  • An operating pressure range: from - 0.98 bar to + 16 bar
  • A temperature range: from - 20°C to + 80°C
Workstations are well supplied, accessible and ergonomically designed. The facility is durable and can be easily upgraded.​

BENEFITS OF A PREVOST PIPING SYSTEM

Compact and lightweight

The 100% aluminium composition of the PPSrange creates a system that is compact, lightweight and durable.

High Tech, Modern Material

Aluminium alloy, combined with external electrostatic paint and internal treatments all The 100% aluminium composition of the .

100% Customizable

The wide range of sizes and fttings allow the system for modular and scalable construction.

Easy And Quick To Assemble

Simply insert the pipe into the PPSftting then tighten the nut.

Leak Free With Minmal Pressure Loss

The "PPS Grip Concept" creates a secure, leak free connection. The smooth internal surface generates a laminar fow, a low friction coefcient and a maximum fow diameter which are all factors to reduce pressure loss.

Compatible With Compressor Oils

Aluminium and viton seals are compatible with compressor lubricants.

Tough Material

Aluminium guarantees long term performance:

  • mechanical strength
  • pressure resistance
  • shocks absorbent
