Aerocom Pneumatic Tube Systems

General Operation Overview

System

The system's operation is quite simple. After choosing the carrier's destination the carrier is put into the sending station. At the receiving station, the carrier is  automatically presented and can be removed from the system, and its contents put to use. The system is now available for its next transmission. An Aerocom pneumatic tube system provides you the most flexible, easy and efficient means of transferring needed materials and information throughout your facility.

Carrier

The Aerocom carrier is a durable, precision engineered transportation receptacle. For over 20 years, the proven design of its sturdy swivel cap has been a standard for Aerocom. It is easy to handle, reliable and there's a fit for every application.

Blower

Aerocom's systems utilize blowers that produce both pressure and vacuum. Pressure vs. vacuum is what determines the direction the carrier will travel. The volume of air being moved provides the drive that pushes, or pulls the carrier at speeds of six to eight meters per second.

The Diverter

Diverters act as a switching station that allows a carrier to travel to its destination in the most direct path set up by the diverters. Through this switching process, Aerocom has the ability to create flexible multi-station systems that make it possible for carriers to be sent from anyone station to any other. To manage each system's complexities, Aerocom has a variety of microprocessor controlled system controllers, which provides the user easy destination selection and then determines the most efficient routing and carrier transition for each transaction.

Dispatch Tube

PVC tubing is the preferred material in approximately 95% of today's applications. PVC is lower in cost and offers a range of other installation benefits. In some applications, such as hospitals and other public facilities the use of high-grade steel tubing is specified. Steel tubing is more expensive than its PVC equivalent. Approximately 70% of today's installations require integration into existing facilities and can run underground or overhead, or in the false ceiling network several buildings adjacent at on another.

Fire protection

Building codes and other area construction standards may dictate a higher level of fire protection. Fire protection sleeves, (according to DIN) will assist in compliance with most fire protection codes and standards. By sealing hermetically the areas of increased concern as specified, PVC tubing may be an alternative.
