Motor
or dynamo is a rotating drive. The most often used type, use
electricity as its main power source and usually referred to as electro motor.
In some of its application, electro motor could not even be used due to its
special application. This special application cannot be applied under one of
some situations, such as; when generated power and RPM are difficult to set,
electricity usage is prohibited, and/or the ambient temperature is too extreme
(above 60 C).
Air
motor or a
pneumatic motor, is a motor that move something by using air flow/wind
generated by spinning the motor.
Because
of that, motor that are most
suitable to be installed without consuming electricity is the air motor
or pneumatic motor. Just like electro
motor, the variable used to determine which types of air motor
suits you best are the power (KW or HP)
and RPM. And also there are two types of mounting, the foot mounting or flange
mounting.
In air motor, to make the motor
spins, it does not use electricity; instead it uses pressurized air or
compressed air to make the motor spin. In industry, the use of air motor is
applied in machinery, rooms, or area that restricted usage of electricity due
to certain condition.
Air
motor in its application, often coupled with gears is called Air gear motor and the
model is determined based on its ratio. The most important thing for air motor to be
working is a constant, sustained compressed air supply. The amount of
compressed air that is consumed depends on the size of the model used (HP or
KW). Aside from gear, there are also another types of, air motor
that are commonly used. Its motor works
just equally simple as the air gear motor, those two types are: piston air motor and vane air motor, and also there is a gear type.
Determining
the model and the type of air motor
or air gear motor is not really different with
determining the type and model of electro motor or electric gear motor, which
is determined by its power in KW or HP measurement unit. Then the type of
mounting of air motor used could be either foot mounting
or flange mounting, depends on its application. Changing the ratio on Pneumatic gearmotor to the desired amount, is using the
same manner.
Regarding
its price, air motor is relatively more expensive compared to the electro
motor. But air motor is really
valued for its superior characteristic, explosion
proof, which makes it safe from explosive and fire hazard. This makes air motor
is most often used as a mixer in a solvent-based-paint industry.
Adjusting
the amount of power and the rotation speed of pneumatic motor can be done easily. To perform the adjustment, for opening
or closing valve and amount of power/torque generated by pneumatic motor can be done through the regulator setting, for rotation
speed (Revolution Per Minute) can be done through speed control setting.
Air
motor, in terms of maintenance is
quite simple, even can be considered as maintenance-free, provided the quality
of the air used meets the standard or pass the air treatment..
The USA-made or Europe-made pnumatic motor or air gear motor is surely more expensive.. Some brands that are commonly seen in the market are; PSI (Pneumatic system Inc), Gast, Huco Dynatork, Globe, Atlas copco, Ingersoll Rand, Mannesmann Demag, Deprag Inc.
But
if you are in a tight budget, air motor products made in China, Taiwan,
Korea, and a number of Japan-made products, might be the one for you. These
products are relatively cheaper but only by a slight margin. Aside from their
price, they also provide a wide range of variants, like Tonson Air Motor, that
has wide application variants.
In
general, the standard Air motor in the market does not have many
variant in terms of power. The power range are; 0.45 HP, 0.93 HP, 1.7 HP, 4 HP,
5.25 HP, 9.5 HP and 2.5 HP. And ratio for Air Gear Motor are: 15:1, 10:1, 20:1,
40:1, 60:1,
