Air boosters, also known as air
amplifiers or intensifiers, are vital
tools for increasing the power of
compressed air. They are primarily
used to maximize compressed air
pressure where standard pressure
isn't enough and cost is a concern.
Norgren, pioneer in compressed air
systems for industrial automation,
offers an exceptional Air-to-Air
Booster that delivers amplified
input pressure at 2:1 and 4:1
ratio. Single-shot boosters are
also available. This powerful
feature is easily installed,
offering power on demand
without the need for expensive
redesigns or larger cylinders.
The versatility of air boosters
is wide-ranging, deployed in
various applications such as:
However, to unlock the full potential
of air boosters, it is crucial to
properly size the booster and the
receiving pneumatic components.
The steps to ensure this includes
determining compressed air
demand, calculating the required
pressure increase, selecting an
appropriate air booster, checking the
compressed air supply, and sizing
the air receiver. When correctly
sized, Norgren's air boosters can
ensure you have the correct pressure
to perform the work required. To
ensure effectiveness, we always
recommend the use of an air tank to
handle the air consumption demand
to meet your application needs.
