The purpose of this Practice is to provide guidelines for design of instrument air systems.
This Practice provides guidelines for engineers designing instrument air systems. This Practice includes design considerations for equipment, as well as backup system design of instrument air systems.
For pneumatic tubing and piping requirements and other instrument air system criteria, see PIP PCCIP001 – Instrument Piping and Tubing Systems Criteria and PIP PCCIA001 – Instrument Air Systems Criteria.
This Practice provides guidelines for designing instrument air systems that supply pneumatically actuated instruments and valves. This Practice provides design guidelines for air quality, capacity, sizing, and testing of instrument air systems.
