Compressed Air
(OP)
Can you direct me to a good design guide for high pressure compressed air systems. I have an application for 2000 psig compressed air. I need to include the compressor, dryer and aftercooler as well as the interconnecting piping.

What is the air going to be used for?
What is the volume of air needed?

I may be wrong but I think the scope of this project is beyond the intent of this Forum.
I think you should look around for an engineering firm that has a proven track record in the compressed gas field.
There are to many considerations in yur project to handle piece by piece. The design of the storage vessels themselves is a design job with numerous special considerations.
Though components, valves, piping, etc, are available to handle your design requirements it requires careful selection by someone well versed in the art to assemble a safe and reliable system.
Good Luck

Reciprocating Air Compressor, 5 stg will work best, 4 stg is ok, but not as reliable.

Pulsation Device (or a vessel with some volume) between compressor and dryer

Desiccant type Dryer may be required - depending on what type of research is being done.

Dew Point moinitor (if critical)

Interconnecting piping needs to be propely designed and installed. Dangerous scenarios can develop if this is not done.
Unclesyd is right about the requirement of experience in the design. Feel free to inquire for further direction to robinchandy@msn.com
