We had a unique opportunity to add onto an existing pipe job and go outside to hook into a dust collector. With going outside the temperature of the air will change. We get colder temperatures here in Calgary and so we added in a Super dry into the line. This will ensure that the air will continue to operate at nominal temperature's. #superdry #freezingair #pipejob #cfmaircalgary #yycbusiness #keepitdry

About us
With over a century of combined experience in Air Compression, CFM Air Equipment was established in Calgary in 1965 provides solutions for Air Compressors, Blowers, Dryers, Filtration, Piping and Parts.

Choose us for you next service and experience the friendly and efficient service that we are famous for! Our customers use us not because they have to, but because they want to - we will never try to lock you in to a contract. Need a new system? Choosing an Air Compressor or Blower system can be a complicated project. Let our experienced and trained staff help you navigate the complexity of selecting the proper components to give you the air that you require. With clear and detailed communication, we will guide you through the whole process from design to implementation. You will have all the information along the way to make informed decisions as we go along. We will focus on the right equipment so you don't end up over-spending on equipment that is too large or ending up starved for air (both these situations can balloon in cost as time goes on). From small 1hp systems right up to complex 650hp systems, we have the expertise to provide solutions that optimize efficiency, performance and cost. Short on air and not sure what you need? We will come on site, install flow and pressure sensors in to your facility that allow us (in real time), to show you exactly what your demand is. This is the only way to truly know how much air your facility requires. Once we are done, we will provide you with a report detailing your air usage and a custom designed air system to cover that requirement. This has saved customers tens of thousands of dollars who would have normally oversize their compressor choice "just to be sure".

We had a unique opportunity to add onto an existing pipe job and go outside to hook into a dust collector. With going outside you must remember that the temperature of the air will change. Here in Calgary we get -40C in the winter and so we added in a Super Dry into the line. This will ensure that the air will continue to operate at a nominal temperatures, without freezing or adding in more moisture into the line. #superdry #freezingair #pipejob #cfmaircalgary #yycbusiness #outdoorapplications #keepitdry

Sometimes we come across a mess of airlines. Here are 3 tips for more efficient and safe air line practice. 1. Optimize the compressed air piping system to prevent pressure drop. While pressure drop can be related to leaks in the system, it can also result from undersized piping, sharp turns and junctions in the piping layout. Try and make your runs as straight and efficient as possible. 2. Choose materials for compressed air piping wisely. Aluminum, which is lightweight, smooth and corrosion resistant is a popular choice. Stainless steel is a common choice in industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceutical and medical device production as it resists corrosion and meets stringent requirements for cleanliness. 3. Do not use PVC for compressed air piping. PVC is not an OSHA-approved compressed air piping material for a reason. Over time it can become brittle and burst under the high pressures and flows associated with compressed air systems, creating safety hazards and health risks #leaks #badpiping #safety #cfmaircalgary #pvc #smartpipe #yycbusiness #noflow #letushelp

With the housing boom on, house construction has seen huge increases. With that comes added machines and more air demand. We were able to help out this customer for this exact solution and he could not be more thrilled. He now has enough air for his new machines and any future expansion. #newmachines #kaeser #woodworking #airdemand #yycbusiness #happycustomer #asd40 #kitchencabinets #cfmaircalgary

Knowledge corner! Did you know air compressors can even be used on cruise ship hulls? Air lubrication reduces the frictional resistance of a ship's hull by creating a carpet of microbubbles on the full flat bottom of a vessel's hull. Air lubrication can reduce fuel consumption and associated GHG emissions by up to 10%. It is suitable for a wide range of ships, including LNG carriers, RoPax/RoRo vessels, bulkers, container ships, tankers, and cruise ships.

Compressed air anywhere! Brewery Uses for Compressed Air Although every brewery operates differently, there are a few common uses for air compressors that are very important to the brewing process. Compressed air is used as a means to get yeast cultures enough oxygen during fermentation. Brewers also use compressors to aerate wort and water, and to transport solids, such as spent grains, whole malt, and sugar. During bottling, compressed air can move beer from the conditioning tank to the bottle, as well as keep lines clean and free of water. It is used during canning and clarifying to remove solids and create a cleaner product, and controls valves and actuators in automated packaging and labeling processes. Some maintenance and sanitation also require compressed air, powering air tools and pressure washers.

Not all compressors are made the same! Introducing CAGI Data Sheets. CAGI data sheets have always provided a standard testing procedure and uniform reporting criteria. Data points including rated capacity, electrical input power and especially specific package performance help our end-users see which compressor offers the best potential for energy-savings. #energysavings #bestchoice #cagi #kaeser #getalltheinfo #picktherightoneforyou #datasheets #cfmair #canada
