Hollow Bar System Compressed Air Design and Installation

August 9, 2021

When Cambs Compressors were asked to provide a compressed air distribution solution which looked great, there was only one brand in the running – the Teseo Hollow Bar System.

Thorlabs Ely is dedicated to designing and manufacturing high-precision motion control systems and specialised vibration isolation products, with onsite sales and technical support staff. Compressed air is used within the manufacturing business, spraying metal treatment works and powering pneumatic equipment. The aesthetics of the compressed air distribution system was a key influencing factor in the choice of pipework.

 

They benefits of the Teseo Hollow Bar System

This unique system not only looks great, but has a number of highly functional benefits. The system is mainly composed of an extruded aluminium bar, which presents an external rectangular section with tee slots and an internal bore of large dimension to carry a considerable flow of compressed air.

The integrated modular system

  • Fast installation – The push to fit system does not require welding threading or painting
  • Modify under pressure – Easy to make changes and add new branch lines without shutting air off
  • High performance – Clean and smooth inner and outer surfaces to carry a considerable flow of compressed air

Teseo, founded in 1988, was the first company worldwide to develop a Modular Aluminium Pipework solution for the distribution of compressed air. The Hollow Bar System (HBS) was the first modular system developed by Teseo and is capable of distributing compressed air, vacuum, nitrogen and other inert gases. Internal pipe sizes available from 25mm to 110mm ensure that the range covers the majority of industry requirements. The smoothness of the internal bore ensures low air friction and guarantees high performance in terms of flow rate and pressure reduction.

 

A 20 year warranty

All Teseo products come with a 20 year warranty, against any damages resulting from material defect , it’s the longest warranty in its sector. This is probably why other Teseo users include Rolls Royce Aerospace, Ford Motor Company, BAE, Airbus Industries, Ryanair, Triumph Motor Cycles, Selex (Marconi), Coca Cola, Spirax Sarco, Numatic, and Ministry of Defence.
