Common questions

What is an instrument air package?

It is a self-contained compressor, dryer, and receiver that supplies clean, dry air for pneumatic valves and controllers so the site does not vent natural gas from those devices. Redhead Services supplies instrument air packages for production facilities that are converting gas pneumatics to air.

Why are operators switching from gas to instrument air?

Gas-driven pneumatics bleed methane and VOCs by design. EPA Quad O programs and many operator methane goals push sites toward instrument air or electric actuators. An air package is the usual field solution when you already have a lot of pneumatic valves.

What size instrument air package do I need?

Peak air demand of the valves and controllers, duty cycle, and whether the site can handle a short outage. Undersizing the dryer or receiver is a common reason packages fail in summer heat. We size from the pneumatic inventory, not a default horsepower.

Is instrument air a Quad O solution?

It is one of the practical ways to eliminate continuous-bleed gas pneumatics. It does not replace tank vapor control or leak detection. Pair it with the rest of the site’s emissions plan.

Do packages include dryers?

The packages we supply are built as utility-air systems with drying and filtration so the air is suitable for instruments, not just shop air. Confirm the dewpoint requirement for your valves when you call.
