Introduction to Pneumatic 1

What is the definition of a pneumatic system?

• A system that uses water to transmit energy.

• A system that uses compressed air to transmit energy.

• A system that uses oil to transmit energy.

• A system that uses electricity to transmit energy.

Mention at least three components of a pneumatic system.

• electrical pipe

• temperature sensor

• lithium battery

• compressor, pneumatic cylinder, control valve

Why is it important to lubricate the components of a pneumatic system?

• Lubricating the components of a pneumatic system has no benefits

• It is not necessary to lubricate the components of a pneumatic system

• It is important to lubricate the components of a pneumatic system to reduce friction, prevent premature wear, improve efficiency, and extend the life of the components.

• Lubrication can cause damage to the components of the pneumatic system

What is a compressor in a pneumatic system and what is its function?

• A compressor in a pneumatic system is a device that reduces the air pressure for efficient use in the system.

• A compressor in a pneumatic system is a device that increases the air pressure for efficient use in the system.

• A compressor in a pneumatic system is a device that controls the direction of airflow in the system.

• A compressor in a pneumatic system is a device that maintains a constant temperature of the air in the system.

What is the typical working pressure in a pneumatic system?

• 50-70 psi

• 200-250 psi

• 80-100 psi

• 120-150 psi

Why is it important to use pressure regulators in a pneumatic system?

• To increase the temperature of the pneumatic system.

• To reduce the speed of the pneumatic system components.

• To add fragrance to the air of the pneumatic system.

• To control and maintain constant pressure in the pneumatic system.

What safety precautions should be taken when working with pneumatic systems?

• Use metal gloves and do not check the system

• Ignore personal protective equipment and do not verify the system

• Do not follow safety instructions and do not inspect the system

• Use personal protective equipment and check the system integrity.

Why is it important to purge the air from a pneumatic system before performing maintenance?

• To increase the system pressure

• To reduce the system efficiency

• To prevent damage to the system and ensure safe and efficient operation.

• To accelerate wear of the parts

What type of hoses should be used in a pneumatic system and why?

• Flexible and pressure-resistant hoses, such as polyurethane ones.

• Rigid plastic hoses

• Garden hoses

• Fabric hoses

What is the difference between a single-acting cylinder and a double-acting cylinder in a pneumatic system?

• The difference lies in the fact that the single-acting cylinder has only one working side, while the double-acting cylinder has two working sides.

• The single-acting cylinder has a greater load capacity than the double-acting one

• Both cylinders have the same number of working sides

• The difference between the two cylinders is the material they are made of
