New edition of compressed air manual launched

  • Atlas Copco

The latest edition of Atlas Copco's free 136 page Compressed Air Manual, boasted to be "essential reading for businesses that need the latest information about compressed air technology" has been launched.


The publisher says that both as a textbook for newcomers and a reference book for more experienced users, the 7th edition of the manual addresses the theoretical and practical issues faced by anyone working with compressed air on a day-to-day basis and provides products and systems facts, data, advice and tips for optimum performance.

The manual, written by professional technicians, comprises six main chapters: Theory; Compressors and auxiliary equipment; Dimensioning and servicing compressor installations; Economy; Calculation example; and ten pages of Appendices.

As well as detailing fundamental working principles and the practical operation of systems and equipment, the manual deals with environmental aspects, air quality issues, energy savings, and compressed air economy.

Now completely re-edited, the text is also accompanied by a wealth of graphics. For a free copy, please contact: gba.info@uk.atlascopco.com
