Transit
| Application | Air Usage Description |
|---|---|
| Air Braking Systems | Air compressors are widely used in transit systems such as trains, metros, trams, and buses for reliable braking. Modern systems focus on energy efficiency using electrically driven compressors with on-demand control. |
| Air Operating Doors | Compressed air is used to open and close vehicle doors smoothly and safely, ensuring quick and reliable passenger access. |
| Suspension Systems | Air suspension systems use compressed air to maintain ride comfort and stability by adjusting vehicle height and load balance. |
| Floor Levelling Systems | Compressed air helps maintain consistent floor height in vehicles, ensuring safe and easy boarding for passengers. |
| Pantographs | Air systems are used to control pantographs, ensuring proper contact with overhead power lines in electric trains. |
| Claxons (Horns) | Compressed air powers horns to produce loud and clear warning signals for safety in transit operations. |
| Wipers | Air-powered wiper systems ensure reliable operation in harsh weather conditions, improving driver visibility and safety. |
