For highly explosive atmosphere which of the following motor is generally preferred?

Right Answer is:

Air motor

SOLUTION

  • A pneumatic motor (Air motor) or compressed air engine is a type of motor which does mechanical work by expanding compressed air.
  • Pneumatic motors generally convert compressed air energy to mechanical work through either linear or rotary motion.
  • Air motor generates less heat and can be used in more volatile atmospheres as they do not require electric power and do not create sparks.
